This paper presents a new method for similarity measures between intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFSs). We will present a method to calculate the distance between IFSs on the basis of the Hausdorff distance. We will then use this distance to generate a new similarity measure to calculate the degree of similarity between IFSs. Finally we will prove some properties of the proposed similarity measure a...

A geodesic is a parameterized curve on a Riemannian manifold governed by a second order partial differential equation. Geodesics are notoriously unstable: small perturbations of the underlying manifold may lead to dramatic changes of the course of a geodesic. Such instability makes it difficult to use geodesics in many applications, in particular in the world of discrete geometry. In this paper...

There are many accidents and risks occurred in many activities of operational systems at exclusive container terminals (ECTs) of Kaohsiung port in Taiwan. The container operators nowadays are facing great competitions on how reducing risks to manage those operational systems and activities at Kaohsiung port. Hence, the main purpose of this paper is to apply the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process ...

Function Point Analysis (FPA) is among the most commonly used techniques to estimate the size of software system projects or software systems. During the point counting process that represents the dimension of a project or an application, each function is classified according to its relative functional complexity. Various studies already propose to extend FPA, mainly aimed at achieving greater ...

A novel signal representation using fuzzy mathematical morphology is developed. We take advantage of the optimum fuzzy fitting and the efficient implementation of morphological operators to extract geometric information from signals. The new representation provides results analogous to those given by the polynomial transform. Geometrical decomposition of a signal is achieved by windowing and ap...

Aim at the faults of Dynamic Clustering Algorithm based on Fuzzy Equation Matrix, we raise a fuzzy clustering algorithm based on factor analysis, which it combines the technology of reducing dimension using factor analyses method. The algorithm will deal with the sample collections before fuzzy clustering, which enlarge the scale of using dynamic clustering algorithm to resolve practical proble...

We describe in this paper a new method for automated simulation of non-linear dynamical systems. This method is based on a hybrid fuzzy-fractal-genetic approach to achieve, in an efficient way, automated simulation of a particular dynamical system given its mathematical model. The use of genetic algorithms is to achieve automated parameter selection for the mathematical models. The use of fuzzy...

We introduce a neuro fuzzy model for localising a mobile robot based on raw vision data Not only does the ap proach involve adaptive fuzzy control but it also integrates data compression such as the principal component analysis PCA as well as pattern matching in eigenspace A typical nonlinear real world system may be modelled as a control process with a large number of sensor inputs By observ i...

A conventional color histogram (CCH) considers neither the color similarity across different bins nor the color dissimilarity in the same bin. Therefore, it is sensitive to noisy interference such as illumination changes and quantization errors. Furthermore, CCHs large dimension or histogram bins requires large computation on histogram comparison. To address these concerns, this paper presents ...

Most decision making problems can be considered as multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) problems, and should be solved by MCDM method. The main advantage of MCDM is that it can give managers many dimensions to consider related elements, and evaluate all possible options under variable degrees. This paper applied fuzzy set theory and a compromised MCDM method VIKOR method to evaluate the ser...
