in this paper, we propose the least-squares method for computing the positive solution of a m  n fully fuzzy linear system (ffls) of equations, where m > n, based on kaman's arithmetic operations on fuzzy numbers that introduced in [18]. first, we consider all elements of coecient matrix are non-negative or non-positive. also, we obtain 1-cut of the fuzzy number vector solution of the n...

in this paper, we propose a new approach for ranking all fuzzynumbers based on revising the ranking method proposed by ezzati et al. cite{ezzati}.to this end, we present and investigate some properties of the proposed approach indetails. finally, to illustrate the advantage of the proposed method, it is applied to several groups of fuzzy numbers and the results are compared with other related a...

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.

considering the contemporary business settings, managers’ role is more than essential to the viability and further development of an organization. managers should possess such skills in order to effectively cope with the competition. multiple attributes decision making (madm) is an approach employed to solve problems involving selection from among a finite number of alternatives. the aim of thi...

decision making about outsourcing or insourcing of manufacturing activities is a type of multiple criteria decision making (mcdm) problem, which requires considering quantitative and qualitative factors as evaluation criteria simultaneously. therefore, a suitable mcdm method can be useful in this area as it can consider the interactions among quantitative and qualitative criteria. the analytic ...

In this paper, we present a revised similarity measure based onChen-and-Chen's similarity measure for fuzzy risk analysis. The revisedsimilarity measure uses the corrected formulae to calculate the centre ofgravity points, therefore it is more  effective than the Chen-and-Chen'smethod. The revised similarity measure can overcome the drawbacks of theexisting methods. We have also proposed a new ...
