Towards a characterization of trapezoidal membership functions defined on extensive structures
نویسنده
چکیده
In many applications of fuzzy set theory, the membership of an object is not defined directly. One of its attributes (like height, age, weight, . . . ) is first mapped on a real number (often by means of a physical instrument) and a parametric function then maps this real number on a membership degree in some fuzzy set (like ‘tall’, ‘old’, ‘heavy’, . . . ). A very common parametric function is the trapezoidal one. This paper presents some conditions guaranteeing the existence of such a trapezoidal membership function representing the knowledge of an expert.

Trapezoidal intuitionistic fuzzy prioritized aggregation operators and application to multi-attribute decision making
In some multi-attribute decision making (MADM) problems, various relationships among the decision attributes should be considered. This paper investigates the prioritization relationship of attributes in MADM with trapezoidal intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (TrIFNs). TrIFNs are a special intuitionistic fuzzy set on a real number set and have the better capability to model ill-known quantities. Fir...

The Transactions in web data often consist of quantitative data, suggesting that fuzzy set theory can be used to represent such data. The time spent by users on each web page is one type of web data, was regarded as a trapezoidal membership function (TMF) and can be used to evaluate user browsing behavior. The quality of mining fuzzy association rules depends on membership functions and since t...

Vulnerability assessment of structures encounter many uncertainties like seismic excitations intensity and response of structures. The most common approach adopted to deal with these uncertainties is vulnerability assessment through fragility functions. Fragility functions exhibit the probability of exceeding a state namely performance-level as a function of seismic intensity. A common approach...
متن کاملAnother Method for Defuzzification Based On Characterization of Fuzzy Numbers
Here we consider approaches to the ranking of fuzzy numbers based upon the idea of associating with a fuzzy number a scalar value, its signal/noise ratios, where the signal and the noise are defined as the middle-point and the spread of each $gamma$-cut of a fuzzy number, respectively. We use the value of a as the weight of the signal/noise ratio of each $gamma$-cut of a fuzzy number to calcula...
متن کاملAn Approach for Accurate Edging using Dynamic Membership Functions
In this paper, by means of fuzzy approaches, an accurate method is introduced for edging of color photographs. The difference between our method with other similar methods is the use of a morphological operation to think or thick the obtained edges. In this proposed method, a 3×3 window is dragged on the photo. For each block, 12 point sets will be defined, each including two non-overlapping po...
