| Symmetry is treated as a continuous feature and a Continuous Measure of Distance from Symmetry in shapes is deened. The Symmetry Distance (SD) of a shape is deened to be the minimum mean squared distance required to move points of the original shape in order to obtain a symmetrical shape. This general deenition of a symmetry measure enables a comparison of the \amount" of symmetry of diierent...

Keeping in consideration the high demand for clustering, this paper focuses on understanding and implementing K-means clustering using two different similarity measures. We have tried to cluster the documents using two different measures rather than clustering it with Euclidean distance. Also a comparison is drawn based on accuracy of clustering between fuzzy and cosine similarity measure. The ...

We develop the fuzzy generalized ordered weighted averaging distance (FGOWAD) operator. It is a new aggregation operator that uses the main characteristics of the generalized OWA (GOWA), the ordered weighted averaging distance (OWAD) and uncertain information represented as fuzzy numbers. This operator includes a wide range of distance measures and aggregation operators such as the fuzzy maximu...

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 ...

Proposing a hierarchical group compromise method can be regarded as a one of major multi-attributes decision-making tool that can be introduced to rank the possible alternatives among conflict criteria. Decision makers’ (DMs’) judgments are considered as imprecise or fuzzy in complex and hesitant situations. In the group decision making, an aggregation of DMs’ judgments and fuzzy group compromi...

In this paper we introduce FLM, a divergence measure to compare a fuzzy and a crisp partition. This measure is an extension of LM, the López de Mántaras distance. This extension allows to handle domain objects having attributes with continuous values. This means that for some domains the use of fuzzy sets may report better results than the discretization that is the usual way to deal with conti...

Record linkage is used in data privacy to evaluate the disclosure risk of protected data. It models potential attacks, where an intruder attempts to link records from the protected data to the original data. In this paper we introduce a novel distance based record linkage, which uses the Choquet integral to compute the distance between records. We use a fuzzy measure to weight each subset of va...

Nonparametric control charts are presented in order to figure out the problem of detecting changes in the process median (or mean)‎, ‎or changes in the variability process where there is limited knowledge regarding the underlying process‎. ‎When observations are reported imprecise‎, ‎then it is impossible to use classical nonparametric control charts‎. ‎This paper is devoted to the problem of c...
