Linear programming problems with trapezoidal fuzzy numbers have recently attracted much interest. Various methods have been developed for solving these types of problems. Here, following the work of Ganesan and Veeramani and using the recent approach of Mahdavi-Amiri and Nasseri, we introduce the dual of the linear programming problem with symmetric trapezoidal fuzzy numbers and establish some ...

In this paper we introduce an approach for solving multiattribute decision-making problems in which there are several decision-makers who individually and independently elicit their preferences. The preferences of each decision-maker are imprecise and represented by an imprecise additive multiattribute utility function. We allow for incomplete information on the component utility functions and ...

Linear programming problems with trapezoidal fuzzy variables (FVLP) have recently attracted some interest. Some methods have been developed for solving these problems by introducing and solving certain auxiliary problems. Here, we apply a linear ranking function to order trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. Then, we establish the dual problem of the linear programming problem with trapezoidal fuzzy varia...

With respect to multiple attribute group decision making (MAGDM) problems in which the attribute weights and attribute values take the form of the generalized interval-valued trapezoidal fuzzy numbers, a new group decision making analysis method is proposed. Firstly, some operational laws, the distance between two generalized interval-valued trapezoidal fuzzy numbers, and transformation from th...

In this paper, we aim to extended the constraints of Tanaka’s model. Applied coefficients of the fuzzy regression by them is the symmetric triangular fuzzy numbers, while we try to replace it by more general asymmetric trapezoidal one. Possibility of two asymmetric trapezoidal fuzzy numbers is explained by possibility distribution. Two different models is presented and a numerical example is gi...

We prove that some important properties of convex subsets of vector topological spaces remain valid in the space of fuzzy numbers endowed with the Euclidean distance. We use these results to obtain a characterization of fuzzy number-valued Lipschitz functions. This fact helps us to find the best Lipschitz constant of the trapezoidal approximation operator preserving the value and ambiguity intr...

There exist some fuzziness and uncertainty in the process of ecological construction. The aim of this paper is to develop a direct and an effective simplified method for obtaining the cost-sharing scheme when some interested parties form a cooperative coalition to improve the ecological environment of Min River together. Firstly, we propose the solution concept of the least square prenucleolus ...
