in recent years, mathematics is an essential aspect of all areas of daily life and the best predictor of being successful in economic situations of society. for many students, the mathematics accompanied with frustration, anxiety and negative attitudes towards mathematics. these students believe their anxiety have been derived from their math teachers, math misconception and weakness in math as...

Many countries are seeking ways of encouraging more secondary school students to specialize in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). The talk will include examples of ICT-based activities used in some current school based projects to help make mathematics more exciting, relevant and challenging to young learners. These include the use of digital images and video clips to stim...

Fuzzy set theoretical approach to numerous problems of applied mathematics and, especially, fuzzy logical analysis of those problems become frequent in the modern mathematical modelling of the real world. It is desirable to offer the mathematically oriented reader a summary of the background of the principles of fuzzy logic in a lucid and compact form. The referred book aims to offer such summa...

In rare situations like fundamental physics we perform experiments without knowing what their results will be. In the majority of real-life measurement situations, we more or less know beforehand what kind of results we will get. Of course, this is not the precise knowledge of the type \the result will be between a ? and a + ", because in this case, we would not need any measurements at all. Th...

In recent years, because of the high potential for insurability in Turkey and the rapid improvement of insurance sector, foreign investors are interested in Turkish insurance market. Since insurability rate has reached saturation point in their countries, foreign investors tended to make investments in Turkey and start to purchase local insurance companies in Turkey. In this paper we analyze fi...

Fraud is causing huge losses to our financial world. This work describes the use of a committee decision system using genetic programming to evolve fuzzy logic rules capable of detecting suspicious home insurance claims. Details of the evolutionary-fuzzy system, the committee decision maker and the data preprocessing are provided. Finally, a series of experiments are described, showing that the...

Abstract: Mukherjee and Basu (Application of fuzzy ranking method for solving assignment problems with fuzzy costs, International Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics, 5, 2010, 359-368) proposed a new method for solving fuzzy assignment problems. In this paper, some fuzzy assignment problems and fuzzy travelling salesman problems are chosen which cannot be solved by using the fore-m...
