The important criteria for designing in the most of hydrologic and hydraulic construction projects are based on runoff or peak-flow of water. Mostly, this measure and criterion is calculated or estimated by stochastic data. Another feature of these data that are used in watershed hydrological studies is their impreciseness. Therefore, in this study, in order to deal with uncertainty and impreci...

This paper proposes a new method for directly discovering the uncertainty from a sample of discrete data, which is then used in the formation of an Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Inference System. A Coefficient of Variation is used to measure the uncertainty on a finite sample of discrete data. Based on the maximum possible coverage area of the Footprint of Uncertainty of Gaussian membership functions, ...

Since it was firstly introduced by Torra and Narukawa (The 18th IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems, Jeju Island, Korea, 2009, pp. 1378–1382), the hesitant fuzzy set has attracted more and more attention due to its powerfulness and efficiency in representing uncertainty and vagueness. This paper extends the classical VIKOR (vlsekriterijumska optimizacija i kompromisno resenje in serb...

Measuring uncertainty for fuzzy sets has been carried out by calculating fuzzy entropy. Fuzzy entropy of fuzzy set is derived with the help of distance measure. The distance proportional value between the fuzzy set and the corresponding crisp set is designed as the fuzzy entropy. The usefulness is verified by proving the proposed entropy. Generally, fuzzy entropy contains the complementary char...

This paper expresses the prominent features of the fuzzy expert system by applying the algorithm Fuzzy Assessment Methodology using K ratio. To diagnosis the diabetes Fuzzy Assessment Methodology using k ratio is developed. Fuzzy Expert System consists of following elements such as Fuzzification interface, Fuzzy Assessment Methodology using K ratio and Defuzzification interface. The crisp value...

Fuzziness (entropy) is a commonly used measure of uncertainty for type-1 fuzzy sets. For interval type-2 fuzzy sets (IT2 FSs), centroid, cardinality, fuzziness, variance and skewness are all measures of uncertainties. The centroid of an IT2 FS has been defined by Karnik and Mendel. In this paper, the other four concepts are defined. All definitions use a Representation Theorem for IT2 FSs. Form...

introduction determining the importance of environmental impacts is one of the main issues and concerns in the process of environmental impact assessment (eia) of projects. ecological impacts assessment is very complicated and requires estimates and anticipates of all environmental impacts and thus always associated with uncertainty. a major problem in assessment of ecological impacts is that t...

Due to the complexities of objects and the vagueness of the human mind, it has attracted considerable attention from researchers studying fuzzy classification algorithms. In this paper, we propose a concept of fuzzy relative entropy to measure the divergence between two fuzzy sets. Applying fuzzy relative entropy, we prove the conclusion that patterns with high fuzziness are close to the classi...

Rough set theory has attracted much attention in modeling with imprecise and incomplete information. A generalized approximation space, called fuzzy probability approximation space has been proposed by introducing probability into fuzzy approximation space. The novel definition combines three types of uncertainty into a model. Information or knowledge is considered as a partition of the univers...
