This paper proposes a new approach based on Bonferroni mean operator and possibility degree to solve fuzzy multi-attribute decision making (FMADM) problems in which the attribute value takes the form of interval type-2 fuzzy numbers. We introduce the concepts of interval possibility mean value and present a new method for calculating the possibility degree of two interval trapezoidal type-2 fuz...

The article presents a multidimensional type 2 epistemic fuzzy arithmetic (MT2EF-arithmetic) based on the new body definition of set (T2FS), which in authors’ opinion, is more suitable for computing than current versions (FA) border T2FS. proposed MT2EF-arithmetic designed variables and has mathematical properties that allow obtaining universal algebraic calculation results. performs calculatio...

In this paper an adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system based on interval Gaussian type-2 fuzzy sets in the antecedent part and Gaussian type-1 fuzzy sets as coefficients of linear combination of input variables in the consequent part is presented. The capability of the proposed method (we named ANFIS2) to function approximation and dynamical system identification is shown. The ANFIS2 structure ...

energy is a critical factor to obtain a sustainable development for countries and governments. selection of the most appropriate energy alternative is a completely critical and a complex decision making problem. in this paper, an integrated multi-criteria decision-making (mcdm) methodology based on type-2 fuzzy sets is proposed for selection among energy alternatives. then a roadmap has been cr...

anti-lock braking system (abs) is a nonlinear and time varying system including uncertainty, so it cannot be controlled by classic methods. intelligent methods such as fuzzy controller are used in this area extensively; however traditional fuzzy controller using simple type-1 fuzzy sets may not be robust enough to overcome uncertainties. for this reason an interval type-2 fuzzy controller is de...

Type-2 fuzzy sets and complex fuzzy sets are both three dimensional extensions of type-1 fuzzy sets. Complex fuzzy sets come in two forms, the standard form, postulated in 2002 by Ramot et al., and the 2011 innovation of pure complex fuzzy sets, proposed by Tamir et al.. In this paper we compare and contrast both forms of complex fuzzy set with type-2 fuzzy sets, as regards their rationales, ap...

In this paper, we present a general framework for the study of interval type-2 rough fuzzy sets by using both constructive and axiomatic approaches. First, several concepts and properties of interval type-2 fuzzy sets are introduced. Then, a pair of lower and upper interval type-2 rough fuzzy approximation operators with respect to a crisp binary relation is proposed. Classical representations ...
