in this paper, we present a revised similarity measure based onchen-and-chen's similarity measure for fuzzy risk analysis. the revisedsimilarity measure uses the corrected formulae to calculate the centre ofgravity points, therefore it is more  effective than the chen-and-chen'smethod. the revised similarity measure can overcome the drawbacks of theexisting methods. we have also proposed a new ...

on account of the existence of uncertainty, dea occasionally faces the situation of imprecise data, especially when a set of dmus include missing data, ordinal data, interval data, stochastic data, or fuzzy data. therefore, how to evaluate the efficiency of a set of dmus in interval environments is a problem worth studying. in this paper, we discussed the new method for evaluation and ranking i...

‎selecting the most suitable robot among their wide range of specifications and capabilities is an important issue to perform the hazardous and repetitive jobs‎. ‎companies should take into consideration powerful group decision-making (gdm) methods to evaluate the candidates or potential robots versus the selected attributes (criteria)‎. ‎in this study‎, ‎a new gdm method is proposed by utilizi...

this paper proposes improvements and revisions to a recent approach in a voting system, and provides an effective approach with a stronger discriminate power. for this purpose, the advantage of a linear transformation is utilized to redene a previously used concept of virtual worst candidate, by incorporating the existing weight restrictions. then, the best score of this virtual candidate is u...

Representation of a granule, relation and operation between two granules are mainly researched in granular computing. Hyperbox granular computing classification algorithms (HBGrC) are proposed based on interval analysis. Firstly, a granule is represented as the hyperbox which is the Cartesian product of $N$ intervals for classification in the $N$-dimensional space. Secondly, the relation betwee...
