Let be a simple undirected fuzzy graph. A subset S of V is called a dominating set in G if every vertex in V-S is effectively adjacent to at least one vertex in S. A dominating set S of V is said to be a Independent dominating set if no two vertex in S is adjacent. The independent domination number of a fuzzy graph is denoted by (G) which is the smallest cardinality of a independent dominating ...

Fuzzy set theory has been used to model systems that are hard to define precisely. As a methodology, fuzzy set theory incorporates imprecision and subjectivity into the model formulation and solution process. Fuzzy set theory represents an attractive tool to aid research in production management when the dynamics of the production environment limit the specification of model objectives, constra...

In last years, a variety of papers on fuzzy sets and other fuzzy topics was concerned with set-algebraic operations for and properties of fuzzy sets. However, only few remarks are devoted to fuzzy cardinals. In classical set theory the cardinality of a set is a measure of its size or "power". In the fuzzy case one has to differentiate: there are measures of fuzziness and measures of power. Here...

This paper introduces a new approach to topology, based on category theory and universal algebra, and called categorically-algebraic (catalg) topology. It incorporates the most important settings of lattice-valued topology, including poslat topology of S.~E.~Rodabaugh, $(L,M)$-fuzzy topology of T.~Kubiak and A.~v{S}ostak, and $M$-fuzzy topology on $L$-fuzzy sets of C.~Guido. Moreover, its respe...

The objective of this chapter is to provide a semantic framework for fuzzy sets in the theory of rough sets. Rough membership functions are viewed as a special type of fuzzy membership functions interpretable using conditional probabilities. The relationships between fuzzy membership functions and rough membership functions, between core and support of fuzzy set theory and lower and upper appro...

this paper is devoted to the concepts of fuzzy upper and fuzzy lower contra-continuous multifunctions and also some characterizations of them are considered.

Recently, bipolar fuzzy sets have been studied and applied a bit enthusiastically and a bit increasingly. In this paper we prove that bipolar fuzzy sets and [0,1](2)-sets (which have been deeply studied) are actually cryptomorphic mathematical notions. Since researches or modelings on real world problems often involve multi-agent, multi-attribute, multi-object, multi-index, multi-polar informat...

In this paper, we eneralize our previous results regarding approximate solutions of fuzzy relation e uations [lo] to systems offuzzy relation equations. By employing the e uality index proposed by Gottwald 731, we introduce a goodness measure of the performance of approximate sAutions and derive a lower bound and an upper bound of solvability of s stems of fuzzy relation equations. We also show...

six-sigma has some measures which measure performance characteristics related to a process. in most of the traditional methods, exact estimation is used to assess these measures and to utilize them in practice. in this paper, to estimate some of these measures, including defects per million opportunities (dpmo), defects per opportunity (dpo), defects per unit (dpu) and yield, a new algorithm ba...
