we study interior operators and interior structures in a fuzzy setting.we investigate systems of “almost open” fuzzy sets and the relationshipsto fuzzy interior operators and fuzzy interior systems.

here we consider the p-center problem on different types of fuzzy networks. in particular, we are interested in the networks with interval and triangular fuzzy arc lengths and vertex-weights. a methodology to obtain the best satisfaction level of the decision maker who wishes to reduce the cost within the tolerance limits is proposed. illustrative examples are provided.

In this paper, following the ideas of (continuous) t-norm and interval numbers, a concept of (continuous) interval-valued t-norm is proposed. Based on the interval-valued fuzzy set and the continuous interval-valued t-norm, we propose a notion of interval-valued fuzzy metric space, which is a generalization of fuzzy metric space in the sense of George and Veeramani [Fuzzy Sets and Systems 64 (1...

Finite sets are one of the most fundamental mathematical structures. In the absence of the axiom of choice there are many different inequivalent definitions of finite even in classical logic. When we allow incomplete existence as in fuzzy sets the situation gets even more complicated. This paper gives nine distinct definitions of finite in a fuzzy context together with examples showing how the ...

We explore a notion of fuzzy T -neighbourhood spaces, for any continuous triangular norm T , and we present on this notion a uni6ed treatment. Our theory, on one hand, generalizes the theory of Lowen (Fuzzy Sets and Systems 7 (1982) 65) from T =Min to arbitrary T , which has been the progenitor of this work, and on the other hand it is strongly related to the theory of L-neighbourhoods of H; oh...

The development and maintenance of software reliability enjoys a high priority in the evolution of modern computer technology. Over the last three decades or so, a tremendous amount of research has gone into the theory and practice of producing reliable software. Given the many subjective factors that in3uence software reliability, it is surprising that very little of this research has been dir...

In 1965, in his pioneer paper L.A. Zadeh [9] introduced the concept of fuzzy set to handle the uncertainties in our daily life. After that many generalizations of fuzzy sets are presented, for example, interval valued fuzzy sets [10] and intuitionistic fuzzy sets [1]. Fuzzy sets are extremely useful to solve many problems in applied mathematics, information sciences and theory of automata [2]. ...

In this paper an adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system based on interval Gaussian type-2 fuzzy sets in the antecedent part and Gaussian type-1 fuzzy sets as coefficients of linear combination of input variables in the consequent part is presented. The capability of the proposed method (we named ANFIS2) to function approximation and dynamical system identification is shown. The ANFIS2 structure ...

maji et al. introduced the concept of fuzzy soft sets as a generalization of the standard soft sets and presented an application of fuzzy soft sets in a decision making problem. in this paper, we apply fuzzy soft sets to  -hyperrings. the concept of ( , q )       -fuzzy soft  -hyperideals of  -hyperrings is first introduced. some new characterizations are investigated. in particular, a...

although there are many excellent ways presenting the principle of the classical calculus, the novel presentations probably leads most naturally to the development of the non-newtonian calculus. the important point to note is that the non-newtonian calculus is a self-contained system independent of any other system of calculus. since this self-contained work is intended for a wide audience, inc...
