Nowadays, an abundant amount of information is created and delivered over electronic media. The information gathering in Internet is a complex activity and Internet users need tools to assist them to find the information required. Web multi-agent systems assist the users by gathering from Internet the information that best satisfies their specific needs. In this paper, we analyze some technique...

Landfill location selection is a multi-criteria decision problem and has a strategic importance for many regions. The conventional methods for landfill location selection are insufficient in dealing with the vague or imprecise nature of linguistic assessment. To resolve this problem, fuzzy multi-criteria decision-making methods are proposed. The aim of this paper is to use fuzzy TODIM (the acro...

As an emerging area considering behavioral aspects of decision making, target-oriented decision model lies in the philosophical root of bounded rationality as well as represents the S-shaped value function. This paper deals with multi-attribute decision analysis from target-oriented viewpoint. First, the basic (random) target-oriented decision model is extended to involve three types of target ...

This paper presents a hybrid fuzzy multi criteria decision making model for z-numbers using intuitive vectorial centroid. There are two novelty discuss here: 1) development of intuitive vectorial centroid defuzzification and; 2) development of hybrid fuzzy multi criteria decision making model based on consistent fuzzy preference relations and fuzzy technique for order performance by similarity ...

This paper presents a survey on the ex isting methods for the stability analysis of fuzzy control systems including both conventional Mamdani s rule based fuzzy controllers and Takagi Sugeno controllers The overview considers several approaches including input output stability frequency response methods Lyapunov techniques and qualitative methods The paper also sumarizes the new stability techn...

In some practical situations the decision maker is interested in setting multi aspiration levels for objectives that may not be expressed in a specific manner. So in this paper, Atanassov’s intuitionistic fuzzy transportation problem with multi-item, multi-objective function assuming multiple choices is considered. We have modeled multi-objective multi-choice multi-item Atanassov’s intuitionist...

This article introduces a general framework of multi-granulation fuzzy probabilistic roughsets (MG-FPRSs) models in multi-granulation fuzzy probabilistic approximation space over twouniverses. Four types of MG-FPRSs are established, by the four different conditional probabilitiesof fuzzy event. For different constraints on parameters, we obtain four kinds of each type MG-FPRSs...

This paper addresses the design and implementation of multi-input multi-output (MIMO) fuzzy control for mobile robot. Firstly, MIMO fuzzy control is apply to track different desired trajectories. Secondly, the controller performs on robot for navigation purpose to avoid obstacles and reach defined target. The proposed MIMO fuzzy controller was investigated based on several conducted MATLAB simu...

in this research, we address the application of uncertaintyprogramming to design a multi-site, multi-product, multi-period,closed-loop supply chain (clsc) network. in order to make theresults of this article more realistic, a clsc for a case study inthe iron and steel industry has been explored. the presentedsupply chain covers three objective functions: maximization ofprofit, minimization of n...
