Singular systems have been studied extensively during the last two decades due Abstract to their many practical applications. Such systems possess numerous properties not shared by the well-known state variable systems. This paper considers the linear tracking problem for the continuous-time singular systems. The Hamilton-Jacobi theory is used in order to compute the optimal control and associa...

A linear system is called a fully fuzzy linear system (FFLS) if quantities in this system are all fuzzy numbers. For the FFLS, we investigate its solution and develop a new approximate method for solving the FFLS. Observing the numerical results, we find that our method is accurate than the iterative Jacobi and GaussSeidel methods on approximating the solution of FFLS. Keywords—fully fuzzy line...

This paper examines the problem of designing a robust H∞ filter for a class of uncertain fuzzy descriptor systems described by a Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy model. Based on a linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach, LMI-based sufficient conditions for the uncertain nonlinear descriptor systems to have an H∞ performance are derived. To alleviate the ill-conditioning resulting from the interaction o...

in this paper, a new method based on parametric form for approximate solu-tion of fuzzy linear matrix equations (flmes) of the form ax = b; where ais a crisp matrix, b is a fuzzy number matrix and the unknown matrix x one,is presented. then a numerical example is presented to illustrate the proposedmodel.

this paper deals with ridge estimation of fuzzy nonparametric regression models using triangular fuzzy numbers. this estimation method is obtained by implementing ridge regression learning algorithm in the la- grangian dual space. the distance measure for fuzzy numbers that suggested by diamond is used and the local linear smoothing technique with the cross- validation procedure for selecting t...

Conceptual cost estimates are important to project feasibility studies, even the final project success. The estimates provide significant information for project evaluations, engineering designs, cost budgeting and cost management. This study proposes an artificial intelligence approach, the evolutionary fuzzy hybrid neural network (EFHNN), to improve precision of conceptual cost estimates. The...

One of the simplest ways of representation of uncertain or inexact data, as well as inexact computations with them, is based on interval arithmetic. In this approach, an uncertain (real) number is represented by an interval (a continuous bounded subset) of real numbers which presumably contains the unknown exact value of the number in question. Despite its simplicity, it conforms very well to m...

In this paper, we propose a method to obtain fuzzy solutions of duality fully fuzzy linear system (DFFLS) of the form ÃX̃ = B̃X̃ + C̃, where Ã, B̃ are fuzzy matrices and C̃, X̃ are fuzzy number vectors. To this end, we solve the 1-cut of DFFLS (which is a crisp system here) ,then some unknown spreads are allocated to any row of a 1-cut of dual fully fuzzy linear system in 1-cut position. Also, by usin...

In reliability optimization problems diverse situation occurs due to which it is not always possible to get relevant precision in system reliability. The imprecision in data can often be represented by triangular fuzzy numbers. In this manuscript, we have considered different fuzzy environment for reliability optimization problem of redundancy. We formulate a redundancy allocation problem for a...
