A Proposed Preference Index For Ranking Fuzzy Numbers Based On $alpha$-Optimistic Values

CREDIBILITY THEORY ORIENTED PREFERENCE INDEX FOR RANKING FUZZY NUMBERS

This paper suggests  a novel approach for ranking the most applicable fuzzy numbers, i.e.  $LR$-fuzzy numbers. Applying the  $alpha$-optimistic values of a fuzzy number, a preference criterion is proposed for ranking fuzzy numbers using the Credibility index. The main properties of the proposed  preference criterion  are also studied.  Moreover, the proposed method is   applied for ranking fuzz...

Ranking triangular interval-valued fuzzy numbers based on the relative preference relation

In this paper, we first use a fuzzy preference relation with a membership function representing preference degree forcomparing two interval-valued fuzzy numbers and then utilize a relative preference relation improved from the fuzzypreference relation to rank a set of interval-valued fuzzy numbers. Since the fuzzy preference relation is a total orderingrelation that satisfies reciprocal and tra...

FUZZY RISK ANALYSIS BASED ON A NEW METHOD FOR RANKING GENERALIZED FUZZY NUMBERS

Fuzzy risk analysis, as a powerful tool to address uncertain information, can provide an appropriate method for risk analysis. However, the previous fuzzy risk analysis methods still have some weaknesses. To overcome the weaknesses of existing fuzzy risk analysis methods, a novel method for ranking generalized fuzzy numbers is proposed for addressing fuzzy risk analysis problems. In the propose...

Ranking of fuzzy numbers based on alpha-distance

This paper presents a new approach to compare fuzzy numbers using α-distance. Initially, the metric distance on the interval numbers based on the convex hull of the endpoints is proposed and it is extended to fuzzy numbers. All the properties of the α-distance are proved in details. Finally, the ranking of fuzzy numbers by the α-distance is discussed. In addition, the proposed method is compare...

A Quadratic Programming Method for Ranking Alternatives Based on Multiplicative and Fuzzy Preference Relations

This paper proposes a quadratic programming method (QPM) for ranking alternatives based on multiplicative preference relations (MPRs) and fuzzy preference relations (FPRs). The proposed QPM can be used for deriving a ranking from either a MPR or a FPR, or a group of MPRs, or a group of FPRs, or their mixtures. The proposed approach is tested and examined with two numerical examples, and compara...
