In a multiple-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) problem, qualitative information with subjective judgments of ambiguity is often provided by people, together with quantitative data that may also be imprecise or incomplete. There are several uncertainties that may be considered in an MCDA problem, such as fuzziness and ambiguity. The evidential reasoning (ER) approach is well suited for dealing ...

In this paper, we investigate a Transportation problem which is a special kind of linear programming in which profits; supply and demands are considered as Intuitionistic triangular fuzzy numbers. The crisp values of these Intuitionistic triangular fuzzy numbers are obtained by defuzzifying them and the problem is formulated into linear programming problem. The solution of the formulated proble...

The critical path problem is a classical and important network optimization problem appearing in many applications, especially in planning and controlling the complex projects. However the result of classical critical path method computation cannot properly match the real-world problem. This gives rise to fuzzy environment and hence we have fuzzy critical path method. In this paper, two differe...

This paper deals with bimatrix games in uncertainty environment based on several types of ordering, which Maeda proposed. But Maeda’s models was just made based on symmetrical triangle fuzzy variable. In this paper, we generalized Maeda’s model to the non-symmetrical environment. In other words, we investigated the fuzzy bimatrix games based on nonsymmetrical L-R fuzzy variables. Then the pseud...

In this paper, a more general definition of triangular intuitionistic fuzzy number (TIFN) is proposed by removing the `normality' in the definition of intuitionistic fuzzy number. The basic arithmetic operations of generalized triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (GTIFNs) and the notion of -cut sets are defined. Also a nearest interval approximation method is described to approximate a GTIFN...

Recently, many scholars investigated interval, triangular, and trapezoidal approximations of fuzzy numbers. These researches can be grouped into two classes: the Euclidean distance class and the non-Euclidean distance class. Most approximations in the Euclidean distance class can be calculated by formulas, but calculating approximations in the other class is more complicated. In this paper, we ...

In the present paper, we analyze the vague reliability of k-out-of-n : G system (particularly, series and parallel system) with independent and non-identically distributed components, where the reliability of the components are unknown. The reliability of each component has been estimated using statistical confidence interval approach. Then we converted these statistical confidence interval int...

In this paper, we develop a new approach to deal with neutrosphic shortest path problem in a network in which each edge weight (or length) is represented as triangular fuzzy neutrosophic number. The proposed algorithm also gives the shortest path length from source node to destination node using ranking function. Finally, an illustrative example is also included to demonstrate our proposed appr...

We present a solution procedure for a quadratic programming problem with some probabilistic constraints where the model parameters are either triangular fuzzy number or trapezoidal fuzzy number. Randomness and fuzziness are present in some real-life situations, so it makes perfect sense to address decision making problem by using some specified random variables and fuzzy numbers. In the present...

In our earlier articles, we proposed two methods for solving the fully fuzzified linear fractional programming (FFLFP) problems. In this paper, we introduce a different approach of evaluating fuzzy inequalities between two triangular fuzzy numbers and solving FFLFP problems. First, using the Charnes-Cooper method, we transform the linear fractional programming problem into a linear one. Second,...
