there are two interesting methods, in the literature, for solving fuzzy linear programming problems in which the elements of coefficient matrix of the constraints are represented by real numbers and rest of the parameters are represented by symmetric trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. the first method, named as fuzzy primal simplex method, assumes an initial primal basic feasible solution is at hand. t...

This paper examines type-2 fuzzy arithmetic using interval analysis. It relies heavily on alpha-cuts and alpha-planes. Furthermore, we discuss the use of quasi type-2 fuzzy sets proposed by Mendel and Liu and define quasi type-2 fuzzy numbers. Arithmetic operations of such numbers are defined and a worked example is presented. Keywords— Fuzzy Arithmetic, Type-2 Fuzzy Arithmetic, Type-2 Fuzzy Nu...

In this paper, we present a new method for ranking generalized fuzzy numbers for dealing with fuzzy risk analysis problems. The proposed method considers the defuzzified values, the heights and the spreads of generalized fuzzy numbers, simultaneously, for ranking generalized fuzzy numbers. It gets better ranking results to rank generalized fuzzy numbers than the existing methods. We also apply ...

Nanda 1 studied sequence of fuzzy numbers and showed that the set of all convergent sequences of fuzzy numbers form a complete metric space. Nuray 2 proved the inclusion relations between the set of statistically convergent and lacunary statistically convergent sequences of fuzzy numbers. Kwon and Shim 3 studied statistical convergence and lacunary statistical convergence of sequences of fuzzy ...

There have been many increasing interests in fuzzy theory in the recent years, yet there are a lot of issues to be resolved, mainly on topics related to controller design such as the field of robot, artificial intelligence, and nonlinear systems etc. This study focuses on the development of triangular fuzzy numbers, the revising of triangular fuzzy numbers, and the constructing of a HCFN (half-...

In this paper, the researchers proposed a new method to rank fuzzy numbers by median value of fuzzy numbers. The median value can be used as a crisp approximation with respect to a fuzzy quantity. Therefore, a method for ordering the fuzzy numbers is defined accordingly. This method can effectively rank various fuzzy numbers, their images and overcome the shortcomings of the previous techniques.

In this paper, we propose an approximate "fuzzy Voronoi" diagram (FVD)for fuzzy numbers of dimension two (FNDT) by designing an extension of crisp Voronoi diagram for fuzzy numbers. The fuzzy Voronoi sites are defined as fuzzy numbers of dimension two. In this approach, the fuzzy numbers have a convex continuous differentiable shape. The proposed algorithm has two stages: in the first stage we ...

A‎s we know, developing mathematical models and numerical procedures that would appropriately treat and solve systems of linear equations where some of the system's parameters are proposed as fuzzy numbers is very important in fuzzy set theory. For this reason, many researchers have used various numerical methods to solve fuzzy linear systems. In this paper, we define the concepts of midpoint a...
