in this article, a numerical method based on  improvement of block-pulse functions (ibpfs) is discussed for solving the system of linear volterra and fredholm integral equations. by using ibpfs and their operational matrix of integration, such systems can be reduced to a linear system of algebraic equations. an efficient error estimation and associated theorems for the proposed method are also ...

Kim and Bishu (Fuzzy Sets and Systems 100 (1998) 343-352) proposeda modification of fuzzy linear regression analysis. Their modificationis based on a criterion of minimizing the difference of the fuzzy membershipvalues between the observed and estimated fuzzy numbers. We show that theirmethod often does not find acceptable fuzzy linear regression coefficients andto overcome this shortcoming, pr...

anti-lock braking system (abs) which is a nonlinear and time variant system may not be easily controlled by classic control methods. this is due to the fact that classic linear controllers are just capable of controlling a specific plant in small region of state space. to overcome this problem, a more powerful control technique must be employed for complex nonlinear plants. fuzzy controllers ar...

We consider complex systems that are composed of many interacting elements, evolving under some dynamics. We are interested in characterizing the ways in which these elements may be grouped into higher-level, macroscopic states in a way that is compatible with those dynamics. Such groupings may then be thought of as naturally emergent properties of the system. We formalize this idea and, in the...

in this paper, we propose a successive approximation method based on fuzzy wavelet like operator to approximate the solution of linear fuzzy fredholm integral equations of the second kind with arbitrary kernels. we give the convergence conditions and an error estimate. also, we investigate the numerical stability of the computed values with respect to small perturbations in the first iteration....

in this paper, we study the finitely many constraints of the fuzzyrelation inequality problem and optimize the linear objectivefunction on the region defined by the fuzzy max-product operator.simplification operations have been given to accelerate theresolution of the problem by removing the components having noeffect on the solution process. also, an algorithm and somenumerical and applied exa...

this paper analyzes a linear system of equations when the righthandside is a fuzzy vector and the coefficient matrix is a crisp m-matrix. thefuzzy linear system (fls) is converted to the equivalent crisp system withcoefficient matrix of dimension 2n × 2n. however, solving this crisp system isdifficult for large n because of dimensionality problems . it is shown that thisdifficulty may be avoide...

Complex systems (CS) are pervasive in many areas, namely financial markets; highway transportation; telecommunication networks; world and country economies; social networks; immunological systems; living organisms; computational systems; and electrical and mechanical structures. CS are often composed of a large number of interconnected and interacting entities exhibiting much richer global scal...

The main aim of this paper intends to discuss the solution of fuzzy Sylvester matrix equation AX +XB = C where A = (aij) ∈ Rn×n , B = (bij) ∈ Rm×m are crisp Mmatrices, C = (cij) ∈ Rn×m is fuzzy matrix and X ∈ Rn×m is unknown,by applying a special algorithm based on a class of ABS algorithms called Huang algorithm. At first, we transform this system to an (mn)×(mn) fuzzy system of linear equatio...
