Abstract. Recently, a number of extensions to classical fuzzy logic systems (type-1 fuzzy logic systems) have been attracting interest. One of the most widely used extensions is the interval type-2 fuzzy logic systems. An interval type-2 TSK fuzzy logic system can be obtained by considering the membership functions of its existed type-1 counterpart as primary membership functions and assigning ...

The development of transport networks is costly and cannot solve all problems. In this regard, scientifically based planning the complex acquires an important role to improve quality functioning system, such as improving organization traffic in various parts network, optimizing system public routes, creating convenient transfer hubs, etc. To problems, paper considers intelligent systems mathema...

Demand forecasting; which sound basis for decision making process, is among the key activities that directly affect the supply chain performance. As the demand pattern varies from system to system, determination of the appropriate forecasting model that best fits the demand pattern is a hard decision in management of supply chains. The whiplash effect can be express as the variability of the de...

Inventory decisional environment of short life-cycle products is full of uncertainties arising from randomness and fuzziness of input parameters like customer demand requiring modeling under hybrid uncertainty. Prior inventory models incorporating fuzzy demand have unfortunately ignored stochastic variation of demand. This paper determines an unambiguous optimal order quantity from a set of n f...

For general type-2 fuzzy sets, the defuzzification process is very complex, and the exhaustive direct method of implementing type-reduction is computationally expensive and turns out to be impractical. This has inevitably hindered the development of type-2 fuzzy inferencing systems in real world applications. The present situation will not be expected to change, unless an efficient and fast met...

There are several methods, in literature, for finding the fuzzy optimal solution of fully fuzzy transportation problems (transportation problems in which all the parameters are represented by fuzzy numbers). In this paper, the shortcomings of some existing methods are pointed out and to overcome these shortcomings, two new methods (based on fuzzy linear programming formulation and classical tra...

Fuzzy Logic Systems are widely recognized to be successful at modelling uncertainty in a large variety of applications. While recently interval type-2 fuzzy logic has been credited for the ability to better deal with large amounts of uncertainty, general type2 fuzzy logic has been a steadily growing research area. All fuzzy logic systems require the accurate specification of the membership func...
