The goal of this paper is to solve a matrix game with fuzzy payoffs. In this paper, a fuzzy matrix game has been considered and its solution methodology has been proposed. In this paper, fuzzy payoff values are assumed to be trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. Then the corresponding matrix game has been converted into crisp game using defuzzification of fuzzy number. Here, widely known signed distance m...

The bi-criteria fixed charge transportation problem is an extension of the classical transportation problem. The bi-criteria fixed charge transportation problem in a crisp environment is, often, not effective in dealing with imprecision or vagueness in the values of the problem parameters. To deal with such situations, it has been proposed that the parameters should be represented as fuzzy numb...

Abstract In this paper, we use interval-valued fuzzy numbers to fuzzify the crisp linear programming to three cases. The first case, we use intervalvalued fuzzy numbers to fuzzify the coefficients in the objective function. We get a linear programming in the fuzzy sense. The second case, we use interval-valued fuzzy numbers to fuzzify the coefficients akj in the constraints about xj, j = 1, 2, ...

In classical transport models, it is always assumed that parameters such as the distance from each supply node to each demand node or the cost of transferring goods from one node to another, as well as quantities such as supply and demand are definite and definite amounts. But in real matters, considering these assumptions is not logical. On the other hand, there may be a real problem in mathem...

recently, gasimov and yenilmez proposed an approach for solving two kinds of fuzzy linear programming (flp) problems. through the approach, each flp problem is first defuzzified into an equivalent crisp problem which is non-linear and even non-convex. then, the crisp problem is solved by the use of the modified subgradient method. in this paper we will have another look at the earlier defuzzifi...

The existing assignment problems for assigning n jobs to n individuals are limited to the considerations of cost or profit measured as crisp. However, in many real applications, costs are not deterministic numbers. This paper develops a procedure based on Data Envelopment Analysis method to solve the assignment problems with fuzzy costs or fuzzy profits for each possible assignment. It aims to ...

The use of geographical entities with fuzzy spatial extent, called here fuzzy geographical entities (FGE’s), in Geographical Information Systems requires the existence of operators capable of processing them. This paper focuses on the computation of areas of FGE’s. Two methods are considered, one crisp due to Rosenfeld (1984), which will be shown to be limited in its applicability, and the othe...

Event detection is a central component in numerous wireless sensor network (WSN) applications. In spite of this, the area of event description has not received enough attention. The majority of current event description approaches rely on using precise values to specify event thresholds. However, we believe that crisp values cannot adequately handle the often imprecise sensor readings. In this ...
