In this paper, we introduce a stationary M∞-fuzzy metric on the set C B(X), where M∞-fuzzy metric can be thought of as the degree of nearness between two fuzzy sets with respect to any positive real number and C B(X) is the class of fuzzy sets with nonempty bounded closed α-cut sets. Under the φ-contraction conditions, we give some common fixed point theorems for self-mappings in the space C B(X).

There have been changes since the companies realized important role of quality improvement in their success. If they are able to produce high products and satisfy demands, then can survive competitive global markets. Quality applications aim decrease variability, which leads less cost, production time, number defects, scrap, rework more customer satisfaction. be improved by reducing product var...

This paper introduces a new method of fuzzy semisupervised hierarchical clustering using fuzzy instance level constraints. It introduces the concepts of fuzzy must-link and fuzzy cannot-link constraints and use them to find the optimum α-cut of a dendrogram. This method is used to approach the problem of classifying scientific publications in web digital libraries. It is tested on real data fro...

This paper proposes a fuzzy multi -criteria decision making method for disaster risk analysis. It considers the application of “α-cut” and “fuzzy arithmetic operations” to rank the fuzzy numbers describing linguistic variables. This article studies the use of variable fuzzy sets and is applied to study disaster area of Nagapattinam district under northeast monsoon rainfall. The relative and syn...

Statistical process control is a very useful method to improve the product quality and reduce reworks and scraps. In a production environment, control charts are the most important tool to determine whether a process is in-control or out-of-control. Control charts are to detect the occurrence of the shifts in a process rapidly so that their causes can be found and the necessary corrective actio...

In this paper, a new Fuzzy Morphology (FM) based on the GeneralizedDempster-Shafer Theory (GDST) is proposed. At first, in order to clarify the similarity ofdefinitions between Mathematical Morphology (MM) and Dempster-Shafer Theory (DST),dilation and erosion morphological operations are studied from a different viewpoint. Then,based on this similarity, a FM based on the GDST is proposed. Unlik...

The purpose of this paper is to investigate and propose a fuzzy extended economic production quantity model based on an elaboratively modeled unit cost structure. This unit cost structure consists of the various lot-size correlative components such as on-line setups, off-line setups, initial production defectives, direct material, labor, and depreciation in addition to lot-size noncorrelative i...

the notion of strong arcs in a fuzzy graph was introduced bybhutani and rosenfeld in [1] and fuzzy end nodes in the subsequent paper[2] using the concept of strong arcs. in mordeson and yao [7], the notion of“degrees” for concepts fuzzified from graph theory were defined and studied.in this note, we discuss degrees for fuzzy end nodes and study further someproperties of fuzzy end nodes and fuzz...

Fuzzy rule based systems have been very popular in many engineering applications. However, when generating fuzzy rules from the available information, it may result in a sparse fuzzy rule base. Fuzzy rule interpolation techniques have been established to solve the problems encountered by sparse rule bases. In most engineering applications, the use of more than one input variable is common. This...
