Many papers exist on ordinary fuzzy control charts in literature in order to consider the vagueness and uncertainty in observation data. These are on both variable and attribute control charts. Several extensions of fuzzy sets have appeared in literature since ordinary fuzzy sets emerged. Type-2 fuzzy sets are one of these extensions. Type-2 fuzzy sets take into account the imprecision of membe...

Interval type-2 fuzzy sets, each of which is characterized by the footprint of uncertainty, are a very useful means to depict the linguistic information in the process of decision making. In this article, we investigate the group decision making problems in which all the linguistic information provided by the decision makers is expressed as interval type-2 fuzzy decision matrices where each of ...

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...

This paper presents the theory and design of interval type-2 fuzzy logic systems (FLSs) because of computational complexity of using general type-2 fuzzy set (T2FS) in type-2 fuzzy system. We propose an efficient and simplified method to compute the input and antecedent operations for interval type-2 FLSs; one that is based on a general inference formula for them. We introduce the concept of up...

in this paper we study two important concepts, i.e. the direct andthe inverse limit of hyperstructures associated with fuzzy sets of type 2, andshow that the direct and the inverse limit of hyperstructures associated withfuzzy sets of type 2 are also hyperstructures associated with fuzzy sets of type 2.

one-third of the people with an age over twenty have some signs of degenerated discs. however, in most of the patients the mere presence of degenerative discs is not a problem leading to pain, neurological compression, or other symptoms. this paper presents an interval type-2 fuzzy hybrid rule-based system to diagnose the abnormal degenerated discs where pain variables are represented by interv...

Abstract The fuzzy transform setting (F-transform) is proposed as a tool for representation and approximation of type-1 and type-2 fuzzy numbers; the inverse F-transform on appropriate fuzzy partition of the membership interval [0,1] is used to characterize spaces of fuzzy numbers in such a way that arithmetic operations are de…ned and expressed in terms of the F-transform of the results. A typ...

in this paper a linear fuzzy fredholm integral equation(ffie) with arbitrary fuzzy function input and symmetric triangular (fuzzy interval) output is considered. for each variable, output is the nearest triangular fuzzy number (fuzzy interval) to the exact fuzzy solution of (ffie).

In this paper, we proposed another new form of type-2 fuzzy data points(T2FDPs) that is perfectly normal type-2 data points(PNT2FDPs). These kinds of brand-new data were defined by using the existing type-2 fuzzy set theory(T2FST) and type-2 fuzzy number(T2FN) concept since we dealt with the problem of defining complex uncertainty data. Along with this restructuring, we included the fuzzificati...
