The aim of this paper has twofold: i) to explore the fundamental concepts and methods of neighborhood-based cluster analysis with its roots in statistics and decision theory, ii) to provide a compact tool for researchers. Since DBSCAN is the first method which uses the concept of neighborhood and it has many successors, we started our discussion by exploring it. Then we compared some of the suc...

evaluative and comparative analysis among educational projects remains an issue for administration, program directors, instructors, and educational institutes. this study reports a fuzzy complexity model for educational projects, which has two primary aspects (technical aspects and transparency aspects). these aspects may not be measured precisely due to uncertain situations. therefore, a fuzzy...

In the process of decision making, the decision makers usually provide inconsistent fuzzy preference relations, and it is unreasonable to get the priority from an inconsistent preference relation. In this paper, we propose a method to derive the multiplicative consistent fuzzy preference relation from an inconsistent fuzzy preference relation. The fundamental characteristic of the method is tha...

In this paper, we investigate two L-neighborhood systems induced by an Lfuzzy topology in a complete residuated lattice L. We study the relationships among L-fuzzy topology, L-topologies and L-neighborhood systems. Finally, we give their examples. AMS Subject Classification: 03E72, 06A15, 06F07, 54A05

This paper further investigates the data compression of fuzzy relation information systems. First, we introduce an algorithm for constructing the homomorphism between fuzzy relation information systems. Then, we discuss that how to compress the dynamic fuzzy relation information systems by utilizing the compression of the original systems. Afterwards, several illustrative examples are employed ...

Feeling unsafe in one's neighborhood is associated with poor health. This relation may be conferred through multiple pathways, including greater psychological distress and health behaviors that are associated with poorer health and perceptions of neighborhood safety. Women and older adults often report feeling less safe in their environments despite having a lower risk of victimization than men...

In this paper, We interpret a fuzzy differential equation by using the strongly generalized differentiability concept. Utilizing the Generalized characterization Theorem. Then a novel hybrid method based on learning algorithm of fuzzy neural network for the solution of differential equation with fuzzy initial value is presented. Here neural network is considered as a part of large field called ...

This  paper extends the notion of fuzzy $BCK$-subalgebras to fuzzy hyper $BCK$-subalgebras and defines an extended fuzzy $BCK$-subalgebras. This study  considers  a type of fuzzy hyper  $BCK$-ideals  in this  hyperstructure  and  describes   the  relationship  between hyper  $BCK$-ideals and  fuzzy hyper  $BCK$-ideals.  In fact, it tries to introduce   a  strongly  regular  relation  on hyper $...
