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...

this paper will introduce a new method to obtain the order weightsof the ordered weighted averaging (owa) operator. we will first show therelation between fuzzy quantifiers and neat owa operators and then offer anew combination of them. fuzzy quantifiers are applied for soft computingin modeling the optimism degree of the decision maker. in using neat operators,the ordering of the inputs is not...

Deriving the analytical structure of fuzzy controllers is very important as it creates a solid foundation for better understanding, insightful analysis, and more e1ective design of fuzzy control systems. We previously developed a technique for deriving the analytical structure of the fuzzy controllers that use Zadeh fuzzy AND operator and the symmetric, identical trapezoidal or triangular input...

in the present paper we define the notion of fuzzy inner productand study the properties of the corresponding fuzzy norm. in particular, it isshown that the cauchy-schwarz inequality holds. moreover, it is proved thatevery such fuzzy inner product space can be imbedded in a complete one andthat every subspace of a fuzzy hilbert space has a complementary subspace.finally, the notions of fuzzy bo...

Interval type-2 fuzzy sets, each of which is characterized by the footprint of uncertainty, are a very useful means to depict the linguistic information in the process of decision making. In this article, we investigate the group decision making problems in which all the linguistic information provided by the decision makers is expressed as interval type-2 fuzzy decision matrices where each of ...

The type-1 OWA operator is a new aggregation operator that is used to directly aggregate fuzzy sets via an OWA mechanism. In this paper, an α-level type-1 OWA operator capable of aggregating the α-cuts of fuzzy sets is proposed. Based on the fuzzy set Representation Theorem, we indicate that a general type-1 OWA operator can be represented by its α-level type-1 OWA operators. This result is ver...

We develop some new cases of the induced continuous ordered weighted averaging (ICOWA) operator and study their desirable properties, which are very suitable to deal with group decision making (GDM) with interval fuzzy preference relations. First, we present the consensus indicator ICOWA (CI-ICOWA) operator which uses the consensus indicator of the interval fuzzy preference as the order inducin...
