Ranking of fuzzy numbers plays a very important role in linguistic decision making and some other fuzzy application systems. Several strategies have been proposed for ranking of fuzzy numbers. Each of these techniques has been shown to produce nonintuitive results in certain cases. In this paper, some new approaches for ranking of trapezoidal fuzzy numbers are introduced. Keywords— Magnitude of...

nowadays, the problem of the flexibility in any organization has essential importance and the associated investigation with the organizational efficiency and performance is considered. in real-world situation, the process of decision making is often based on linguistic and mental data, so applying fuzzy logic in modeling at this point of view is convenient. in this paper, a fuzzy approach is ap...

in this paper the solution of a second order linear dierential equations with intu-itionistic fuzzy boundary value is described. it is discussed for two dierent cases: coecientis positive crisp number and coecient is negative crisp number. here fuzzy numbers aretaken as generalized trapezoidal intutionistic fuzzy numbers (gtrifns). further a numericalexample is illustrated.

Real eigenvectors of real matrix is extended to fuzzy eigenvectors. The structure of fuzzy eigenspaces and relationships between real eigenspaces and fuzzy eigenspaces of real matrix are studied. Using fuzzy eigenvector, we give a sufficient condition to existence of solution of fuzzy linear systems.

Fuzzy measures have been widely used to determine the degrees of subjective importance of evaluation items. However, the leniency error may exist when most attributes are assigned unduly high ratings. Because respondents often assign similarly complimentary scores, errors of positive leniency make it difficult to differentiate the importance of decision attributes. To reduce positive leniency i...

In some multi-attribute decision making (MADM) problems, various relationships among the decision attributes should be considered. This paper investigates the prioritization relationship of attributes in MADM with trapezoidal intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (TrIFNs). TrIFNs are a special intuitionistic fuzzy set on a real number set and have the better capability to model ill-known quantities. Fir...
