recently, abbasbandy and asady have been proposed a modificationof the distance based approach, namely ``sign distance method''.however, in this paper, it is shown that this method has some drawbacks, i.e.,the result is not consistent with human intuition for specialcases and this method cannot always logically infer rankingorder of the images of the fuzzy numbers. in this paper, wepresent a re...

this study is an investigation of fuzzy linear regression model for crisp/fuzzy input and fuzzy output data. a least absolutes deviations approach to construct such a model is developed by introducing and applying a new metric on the space of fuzzy numbers. the proposed approach, which can deal with both symmetric and non-symmetric fuzzy observations, is compared with several existing models by...

In current study, a particle swarm clustering method is suggested for clustering triangular fuzzy data. This clustering method can find fuzzy cluster centers in the proposed method, where fuzzy cluster centers contain more points from the corresponding cluster, the higher clustering accuracy. Also, triangular fuzzy numbers are utilized to demonstrate uncertain data. To compare triangular fuzzy ...

recently, gasimov and yenilmez proposed an approach for solving two kinds of fuzzy linear programming (flp) problems. through the approach, each flp problem is first defuzzified into an equivalent crisp problem which is non-linear and even non-convex. then, the crisp problem is solved by the use of the modified subgradient method. in this paper we will have another look at the earlier defuzzifi...

this paper considers the fuzzy inventory model for deteriorating items for power demand under fully backlogged conditions. we define various factors which are affecting the inventory cost by using the shortage costs. an intention of this paper is to study the inventory modelling through fuzzy environment. inventory parameters, such as holding cost, shortage cost, purchasing cost and deteriorati...

This work considers the resolution of the system of fuzzy integer inequalities. It is shown that a system of fuzzy integer inequalities with concave membership functions can be reduced to a regular convex integer programming problem. A modified solution algorithm of the -th power Lagrangian method is introduced to deal with the resulting convex integer programming problem as a sequence of linea...
