the purpose of this study is to find the percentiles of fuzzy numbersand to demonstrate their applications, which include finding weightedmeans, dispersion indices, and the percentile intervals of fuzzy numbers. thecrisp approximations of fuzzy numbers introduced in this paper are new andinteresting for the comparison of fuzzy environments, such as a variety of economic,financial, and engineeri...

In this paper,  we determine necessary and sufficient Tauberian conditions under which convergence in Pringsheim's sense of a double sequence of fuzzy numbers follows from its $(C,1,1)$ summability. These conditions are satisfied if the double sequence of fuzzy numbers is slowly oscillating in different senses. We also construct some interesting double sequences of fuzzy numbers.

Arabidopsis thaliana lacks the flavone biosynthetic pathway, probably because of a lack or low activity of a flavone synthase. To establish this biosynthetic pathway in Arabidopsis, we subjected this model plant to transformation with the parsley gene for flavone synthase type I (FNS-I). Transgenic seedlings expressing FNS-I were cultured in liquid medium with or without naringenin, and plant e...

Fuzzy measures are suitable in analyzing human subjective evaluation processes. Several different strategies have been proposed for distance of fuzzy numbers. The distances introduced for fuzzy numbers can be categorized in two groups:\1. The crisp distances which explain crisp values for the distance between two fuzzy numbers.\2. The fuzzy distance which introduce a fuzzy distance for normal f...

in this paper the fixed point theorem of schauder is used to prove the existence of a continuous solution of the nonlinear fuzzy volterra integral equations. then using some conditions the uniqueness of the solution is investigated.

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS To evaluate the correlation between a narrow bony cochlear nerve canal (BCNC) and facial nerve stimulation (FNS) after cochlear implantation (CI) and their underlying mechanisms and to predict the risk of FNS preoperatively. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. METHODS A total of 64 pediatric cases that underwent CI were included. Among them, 32 cases experienced F...

most of the researches in the domain of fuzzy number comparisons serve the fuzzy number ordering purpose. for making a comparison between two fuzzy numbers, beyond the determination of their order, it is needed to derive the magnitude of their order. in line with this idea, the concept of inequality is no longer crisp however it becomes fuzzy in the sense of representing partial belonging or de...
