Chiclana, Herrera and Herrera-Viedma studied conditions under which the reciprocity property is maintained in the aggregation of reciprocal fuzzy preference relations using the OWA operator guided by a relative linguistic quantifier. In this note, we focus on the reciprocity in the aggregation of fuzzy preference relations (that is, the additive reciprocity is not assumed) using the OWA operato...

In multiperson decision making situations, it is quite natural that different decision makers who may have different background and knowledge will provide their preferences by different kinds of preference relations. This paper proposes a linguistic multiperson decision making model (LMDMM) based on linguistic preference relations, integrating fuzzy preference relations, different types of mult...

in this paper, a new method is proposed to find the fuzzy optimal solution of fully fuzzy linear programming (abbreviated to fflp) problems. also, we employ linear programming (lp) with equality constraints to find a nonegative fuzzy number vector x which satisfies ax =b, where a is a fuzzy number matrix. then we investigate the existence of a positive solution of fully fuzzy linear system (ffls).

it is well known fact that binary relations are generalized mathematical functions. contrary to functions from domain to range, binary relations may assign to each element of domain two or more elements of range. some basic operations on functions such as the inverse and composition are applicable to binary relations as well. depending on the domain or range or both are fuzzy value fuzzy set, i...

Citation classics identify those highly cited papers which are an important reference point in a research field. Identifying citation classics in a research field is one of the main approaches used to conduct a systematic evaluation of research performance. Highly cited articles are interesting due to the potential association between high citation counts and high quality research. The aim of t...

Atanassov (Fuzzy Sets and Systems 20 (1986) 87-96) defined basic operations over the intuitionistic fuzzy sets. Here we shall introduce two operations, subtraction and division, derived from the deconvolution for equations using addition and multiplication operations, respectively. In addition, we shall give some conditions to examine the correctness regarding the defined operations. The remark...
