A fuzzy sliding-mode control with rule adaptation design approach with decoupling method is proposed. It provides a simple way to achieve asymptotic stability by a decoupling method for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems. The adaptive fuzzy sliding-mode control system is composed of a fuzzy controller and a compensation controller. The fuzzy controller is the main rule regulation controller...

logistics outsourcing has been at the top of the management agenda during recent decades. the selection of the proper service supplier is the key to success in logistic outsourcing firms could select the right supplier by applying appropriate methods and selection criteria. in this paper a new framework is proposed on the basis of weighted additive fuzzy programming approach and linear programm...

An approach to develop new measures of fuzzy directed divergence is proposed here. A new measure of fuzzy directed divergence is proposed, and some mathematical properties of this measure are proved. The application of fuzzy directed divergence in image segmentation is explained. The proposed technique minimizes the fuzzy divergence or the separation between the actual and ideal thresholded image.

The aim of this paper is to develop a linear programming technique for multidimensional analysis of preferences in multiattribute group decision making under fuzzy environments. Fuzziness is inherent in decision data and group decision making processes, and linguistic variables are well suited to assessing an alternative on qualitative attributes using fuzzy ratings. A crisp decision matrix can...

The concept of q , -fuzzy ternary subsemigroup (left, right, lateral, quasi-, bi-) ideal of a ternary semigroup is introduced and several related properties are investigated. We give some characterizations of regular and weakly regular ternary semigroups by q , -fuzzy left (right, lateral) ideals, q , -fuzzy quasi-ideals and q , -fuzzy bi-(generalized bi-) ideals.

In this paper, we introduce the notion of bipolar fuzzy subLA-semigroup and bipolar fuzzy left (right) ideal of LA-semigroup and several properties are investigated. Moreover we give some characterization theorems of bipolar fuzzy left (right) ideals of LA-semigroups. We characterize different classes of LA-semiroups by bipolar fuzzy ideals.
