a new approach to define the similarity measure betweeninterval-valued fuzzy sets is presented. the proposed approach isbased on a weighted measure in which the normalized similaritiesbetween lower functions and also between upper functions arecombined by a weight parameter. the properties of this similaritymeasure are investigated. it is shown that, the proposed measurehas some advantages in c...

As medical images contain uncertainties, there are difficulties in classification of images into homogeneous regions. Fuzzy sets, rough sets and the combination of fuzzy and rough sets plays a prominent role in formalizing uncertainty, vagueness, and incompleteness in diagnosis. Development of hybrid approaches for the segmentation of the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with the ability of com...

the concept of an $l$-bornology is introduced and the theory of $l$-bornological spacesis being developed. in particular the lattice of all $l$-bornologies on a given set is studied and basic properties ofthe category of $l$-bornological spaces and bounded mappings are investigated.

comparing the performance of a set of activities or organizations under uncertainty environment has been performed by means of fuzzy data envelopment analysis (fdea) since the traditional dea models require accurate and precise performance data. as regards a method for dealing with uncertainty environment, many researchers have introduced dea models in fuzzy environment. some of these models ar...

Utilizing renewable energies is identified as one of significant issues for economical and social significance in future human life. Thus, choosing the best renewable energy among renewable energy candidates is more important. To address the issue, multi-criteria group decision making (MCGDM) methods with imprecise information could be employed to solve these problems. The aim of this paper is ...

In this paper, we propose a method to obtain fuzzy solutions of duality fully fuzzy linear system (DFFLS) of the form ÃX̃ = B̃X̃ + C̃, where Ã, B̃ are fuzzy matrices and C̃, X̃ are fuzzy number vectors. To this end, we solve the 1-cut of DFFLS (which is a crisp system here) ,then some unknown spreads are allocated to any row of a 1-cut of dual fully fuzzy linear system in 1-cut position. Also, by usin...

species selection based on a new method such as a fuzzy method is one of the most important stages in the successful plantation management planning as choosing a suitable species for the site can be the key to success. this paper is based on a fuzzy extension of the technique or order preference which is similar to ideal solution (topsis) method. the purpose of this paper is to develop fuzzy to...

in this paper we determine the sequences of join spaces and atanassov's intuitionistic fuzzy sets associated with all i.p.s. hypergroups of order less than or equal to 6, focusing on the calculation of their lengths.

In that paper, the fuzzy nonlinear programming problem is discussed. In order to obtain more accurate solution, the properties of fuzzy set and fuzzy number with linear membership function and fuzzy maximum decision maker is utilized to fuzzifying the crisp problem. In the illustration, we have given a refinement to obtain this solution.
