For any two points P = (p (1) ,p (2) ,...,p (n)) and Q = (q (1) ,q (2) ,...,q (n)) of R n , we define the crisp vector → PQ = (q (1) −p (1) ,q (2) −p (2) ,...,q (n) −p (n)) = Q(−)P. Then we obtain an n-dimensional vector space E n = { → PQ | for all P,Q ∈ R n }. Further, we extend the crisp vector into the fuzzy vector on fuzzy sets of R n. Let D, E be any two fuzzy sets on R n and define the f...

This paper presents a method based on fuzzy regression to analyze fatigue crack growth data, where the variations of the parameters are not only due to measurement errors but also system errors. A membership function is used to describe the system errors. Crack growth data under constant and random amplitude stress are analyzed and the results are compared with conventional least-squares regres...

A new approach of combining these two powerful AI tools, known as neuro-fuzzy systems, has increasingly attracted scientists in ...

We show that the lattice of all ideals of a ring $R$ can be embedded in the lattice of all its fuzzyideals in uncountably many ways. For this purpose, we introduce the concept of the generalizedcharacteristic function $chi _{s}^{r} (A)$ of a subset $A$ of a ring $R$ forfixed $r , sin [0,1] $ and show that $A$ is an ideal of $R$ if, and only if, its generalizedcharacteristic function $chi _{s}^{...

D0-branes are unstable in the presence of an R-R field strength background. A fuzzy twosphere is classically stable under such a background, this phenomenon being called the Myers effect. We analyze this effect from the viewpoint of tachyon condensation. It is explicitly shown that a fuzzy two-sphere is realized by the condensation of tachyons which appear from strings connecting different D0-b...

Let R be a Γ-hyperring and M be an Γ-hypermodule over R. We introduce and study fuzzy RΓ-hypermodules. Also, we associate a Γhypermodule to every fuzzy Γ-hypermodule and investigate its basic properties.
