in this paper, the numerical algorithms for solving ‘fuzzy ordinary differential equations’ are considered. a scheme based on the 4th order runge-kutta method is discussed in detail and it is followed by a complete error analysis. the algorithm is illustrated by solving some linear and nonlinear fuzzy cauchy problems.

artificial neural networks have the advantages such as learning, adaptation, fault-tolerance, parallelism and generalization. this paper mainly intends to offer a novel method for finding a solution of a fuzzy equation that supposedly has a real solution. for this scope, we applied an architecture of fuzzy neural networks such that the corresponding connection weights are real numbers. the sugg...

In this paper, we introduce a Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy model which is derived from a typical Multi-Layer Perceptron Neural Network (MLP NN). At first, it is shown that the considered MLP NN can be interpreted as a variety of TS fuzzy model. It is discussed that the utilized Membership Function (MF) in such TS fuzzy model, despite its flexible structure, has some major restrictions. After modify...

In this research paper, we use a normalized graph cut measure as a thresholding principle to separate an object from the background based on the standard S membership function. The implementation of the proposed algorithm known as fuzzy normalized graph cut method. This proposed algorithm compared with the fuzzy entropy method [25], Kittler [11], Rosin [21], Sauvola [23] and Wolf [33] method. M...
