چکیده

A new approach for ranking fuzzy numbers based on a distance measure is introduced. A new class of distance measures for interval numbers that takes into account all the points in both intervals is developed -rst, and then it is used to formulate the distance measure for fuzzy numbers. The approach is illustrated by numerical examples, showing that it overcomes several shortcomings such as the indiscriminative and counterintuitive behavior of several existing fuzzy ranking approaches. c © 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.

A new attitude coupled with the basic fuzzy thinking to distance between two fuzzy numbers

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...

A Study on Exponential Fuzzy Numbers Using alpha-Cuts

In this study a new approach to rank exponential fuzzy numbers using  -cuts is established. The metric distance of the interval numbers is extended to exponential fuzzy numbers. By using the ranking of exponential fuzzy numbers and using  -cuts the critical path of a project network is solved and illustrated by numerical examples. Keywords: Exponential Fuzzy Numbers,  -cuts, Metric Dista...

An improved similarity measure of generalized trapezoidal fuzzy numbers and its application in multi-attribute group decision making

Generalized trapezoidal fuzzy numbers (GTFNs) have been widely applied in uncertain decision-making problems. The similarity between GTFNs plays an important part in solving such problems, while there are some limitations in existing similarity measure methods. Thus, based on the cosine similarity, a novel similarity measure of GTFNs is developed which is combined with the concepts of geometric...

A fuzzy distance measure for generalized fuzzy numbers

In this paper, first of all the distance measure entitled generalized Hausdorff distance is defined between two generalized fuzzy numbers that has been introduced by Chen [3]. Then using another distance and combining it with the generalized Hausdorff distance, a fuzzy distance measure is introduced with the help of fuzzy distance measure proposed in [1] to generalize fuzzy numbers. The concept...
