The study introduces a new class of fuzzy neurons and fuzzy neural networks exploiting a model of a generalized multivalued exclusive-OR (XOR) operation. The proposed neural architecture is useful in an algebraic representation (description) of fuzzy functions regarded as mappings between unit hypercubes, say [0,1] [0,1]. Some underlying properties of the fXOR neurons are discussed and a detail...

This contribution deals with fuzzy interval orders which are defined by the use of generalized properties, the Ferrers property and total connectedness, of fuzzy relations. Definitions of the generalized properties involve binary operations including t-norms and t-conorms and, more generally, fuzzy conjunctions and disjunctions. In particular, conditions for n-argument functions to preserve fuz...

Most of the existing approaches for fuzzy reliability analysis are based on fuzzy probability.  The aim of this paper is to describe fuzzy reliability using fuzzy differential equation. The reliability of a system in real world applications is affected by some uncertain parameters. Fuzzy reliability is a way to present the reliability function uncertainly using fuzzy parameters. In the proposed...

in this paper, the concept of k-regular fuzzy matrix as a general- ization of regular matrix is introduced and some basic properties of a k-regular fuzzy matrix are derived. this leads to the characterization of a matrix for which the regularity index and the index are identical. further the relation between regular, k-regular and regularity of powers of fuzzy matrices are dis- cussed.

in this paper, we propose a new approach for ranking all fuzzynumbers based on revising the ranking method proposed by ezzati et al. cite{ezzati}.to this end, we present and investigate some properties of the proposed approach indetails. finally, to illustrate the advantage of the proposed method, it is applied to several groups of fuzzy numbers and the results are compared with other related a...

The aim of this paper is to introduce the notions of ($epsilon, epsilon vee q$)-fuzzy p-ideals, ($epsilon, epsilon vee q$)-fuzzy q-ideals and ($epsilon, epsilon vee q$)-fuzzy a-ideals in BCIalgebras and to investigate some of their properties. Several characterizationtheorems for these generalized fuzzy ideals are proved and the relationshipamong these generalized fuzzy ideals of BCI-algebras i...

By means of a kind of new idea, we redefine some kinds of fuzzy ideals in a ring and investigate some of their related properties. The concepts of strong prime (semiprime) generalized fuzzy (bi-, quasi-) ideals in rings are introduced. In particular, we discuss the relationships between strong prime (resp., semiprime) generalized fuzzy (bi-, quasi-) ideals and prime (resp. semiprime) generalize...

In this paper, we defined some aggregation operators to aggregate generalized hesitant fuzzy elements and the relationship between our proposed operators and the existing ones are discussed in detail. Furthermore, the procedure of multicriteria decision making based on the proposed operators is given under generalized hesitant fuzzy environment. Finally, a practical example is provided to illus...
