In this paper, we present a new prioritization method for information fusion under fuzzy environment. We propose a new measure to measure the similarity between generalized trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. Based on the proposed similarity measure, we develop an utility function of generalized trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. With the utility function of generalized trapezoidal fuzzy numbers, we propose a n...

This paper proposes the concepts of a neutrosophic number and a trapezoidal neutrosophic number (TNN), the basic operational relations of TNNs, and the score function of TNN. Then, we develop a trapezoidal neutrosophic weighted arithmetic averaging (TNWAA) operator and a trapezoidal neutrosophic weighted geometric averaging (TNWGA) operator to aggregate TNN information and investigate their pro...

We show that the E +-class can be decided by a liftable order, when it is applied a posteriori. This is a surprising result, because the E +-class was one of the motivations for the study of non-liftable orders. Also surprising is the behaviour of the resolution process. Initially the variable depth of the clauses may grow, but it will not grow deeper than a certain bound. We do not make use of...

and |g′′(x)| = M. We will show that |f(x)| ≤ g(x) on [0, 1]. The desired conclusion follows. Suppose however that this is false, that there is a number q ∈ [0, 1] for which f(q) > g(q). (The other case, f(q) < −g(q), is similar.) Our strategy will be to show that there are real numbers s and t with s < t such that f ′(s) > g′(s) and f ′(t) < g′(t). See figure. We will then apply the Mean Value ...

We systematically study wreath product Schur functions and give a combinatorial construction using colored partitions and tableaux. The Pieri rule and the Littlewood-Richardson rule are studied. We also discuss the connection with representations of generalized symmetric groups.

This paper provides a characterization of dominant strategy mechanisms with quasi-linear utilities and multi-dimensional types for a variety of preference domains. These characterizations are in terms of a monotonicity property on the underlying allocation rule.

Hanging to the trapezoidal sheet by a very widespread solution used in civil engineering to lead the distribution of energy, sanitary, air distribution system etc. under the roof or floor structure. The trapezoidal decking part of the whole installation system for specific distribution medium. The leading companies offer installation systems for each specific distribution e.g. pipe rings, sprin...

In some cases, our uncertainty about about a quantity can be described by an interval of its possible values. If we have two or more pieces of interval information about the same quantity, then we can conclude that the actual value belongs to the intersection of these intervals. In general, we may need a fuzzy number to represent our partial knowledge. A fuzzy number can be viewed as a collecti...

A new algorithm namely, fuzzy zero point method is proposed for finding a fuzzy optimal solution for a fuzzy transportation problem where the transportation cost, supply and demand are trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. The optimal solution for the fuzzy transportation problem by the fuzzy zero point method is a trapezoidal fuzzy number. The solution procedure is illustrated with numerical example. Mat...
