چکیده

By connecting work from two different problems— the fuzzy weighted average (FWA) and the generalized centroid of an interval type-2 fuzzy set—a new -cut algorithm for solving the FWA problem has been obtained, one that is monotonically and superexponentially convergent. This new algorithm uses the Karnik–Mendel (KM) algorithms to compute the FWA -cut endpoints. It appears that the KM -cut algorithms approach for computing the FWA requires the fewest iterations to date, and may therefore be the fastest available FWA algorithm to date.

On Computing the Fuzzy Weighted Average Using the KM Algorithms

By connecting the fuzzy weighted average (FWA) and the generalized centroid (GC) of an interval type-2 fuzzy set we have arrived at a new αcut algorithm for solving the FWA problem, one that is monotonically and super-exponentially convergent. Our new algorithm uses the Karnik-Mendel (KM) algorithms to compute the FWA α-cut end-points. No faster algorithm for solving this problem exists to-date.

Corrections to "Aggregation Using the Linguistic Weighted Average and Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Sets"

In the previous paper, we have proposed linguistic weighted average (LWA) algorithms that can be used in distributed and hierarchical decision making. The original LWA algorithms were completely based on the representation theorem for interval type-2 fuzzy sets (IT2 FSs). In later usage, we found that when the lower membership functions (LMFs) of the inputs and weights are of different heights,...

On Computing the Centroid of a Symmetrical Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Set

Computing the centroid of a type-2 fuzzy set (T2 FS) is an important operation for such sets. For an interval T2 FS, the centroid can be computed by using two iterative procedures that were developed by Karnik and Mendel [2]. In this paper, we prove that if the footprint of uncertainty for an interval T2 FS is symmetrical about the primary variable y at y = m , then the centroid is also symmetr...

Power harmonic aggregation operator with trapezoidal intuitionistic fuzzy numbers for solving MAGDM problems

Trapezoidal intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (TrIFNs) express abundant and flexible information in a suitable manner and  are very useful to depict the decision information in the procedure of decision making. In this paper, some new aggregation operators, such as, trapezoidal intuitionistic fuzzy weighted power harmonic mean (TrIFWPHM) operator, trapezoidal intuitionistic fuzzy ordered weighted po...

Centroid of an Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Set Re-Formulation of the Problem

In theory of interval type-2 (IT2) fuzzy sets, type-reduction is one of the most difficult parts. Karnik-Mendel (KM) algorithms have been the most popular method for computing type-reduction of IT2 fuzzy sets. These algorithms present two independent procedures for computing the generalized centroid of an IT2 fuzzy set: the first one for computing its left part (denoted by cl), and the second o...
