Ranking of fuzzy numbers play an important role in decision making, optimization, forecasting etc. Fuzzy numbers must be ranked before an action is taken by a decision maker. Cheng (Cheng, C. H. (1998). A new approach for ranking fuzzy numbers by distance method. Fuzzy Sets and Systems, 95, 307–317) pointed out that the proof of the statement ‘‘Ranking of generalized fuzzy numbers does not depe...

This paper proposes a web-based laboratory resource supply chain conceptual model for an educational institution to increase the process and information integration, visibility and flexibility. The proposed model utilizes a reasoning engine with fuzzy, parallel fuzzy rules, and de-fuzzy processes to decide the optimal purchase ordering quantity and the best constant stocks in the laboratory. Th...

In this paper, a new approach is prposed for ordering fuzzy numbers based on bi-symmetrical weighted distance. The proposed method considers the bi-symmetrical weighted function and the bisymmetrical weighted distance of fuzzy numbers to rank fuzzy numbers. Some examples to compare the advantage of this approch with the existing metric index ranking methods is illustrated. The process to rank t...

in this paper, some elementary operations on triangular fuzzynumbers (tfns) are defined. we also define some operations on triangularfuzzy matrices (tfms) such as trace and triangular fuzzy determinant(tfd). using elementary operations, some important properties of tfms arepresented. the concept of adjoints on tfm is discussed and some of theirproperties are. some special types of tfms (e.g. pu...

in this paper, the concept of canonical representation is proposed to find fuzzy roots of fuzzy polynomial equations. we transform fuzzy polynomial equations to system of crisp polynomial equations, this transformation is perform by using canonical representation based on three parameters value, ambiguity and fuzziness.

This paper presents an approach to the generalization of grayscale morphology to color images. Attaining such a generalization is strongly related to the issues of multivariate ranking and to the Pareto sets of multiobjective optimization. Some ranking schemes for multivariate data are recalled. For color morphology, the most important underlying ranking scheme is reduced ordering (also referre...

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||Abstract In this paper, the researcher proposes a modi ed new method to rank L-R fuzzy numbers. The modi ed method uses a defuzzi cation of parametrically represented fuzzy numbers that have been studied in [20]. This parameterized defuzzi cation can be used as a crisp approximation with respect to a fuzzy quantity. In this article, the researcher uses this defuzz...

Orderings of fuzzy sets play an important role in various disciplines. In the last 25 years, a lot a different approaches to this problem have been introduced, ranging from rather simple ones to quite exotic ones. The purpose of this paper is to present a new framework for comparing fuzzy sets with respect to fuzzy orderings which already includes several known techniques based on the extension...
