This paper presents an interval type-2 fuzzy Knearest neighbor (NN) algorithm that is an extension of the type1 fuzzy K-NN algorithm proposed in [l]. In our proposed method, the membership values for each vector are 'extended as interval type-2 fuzzy memberships by assigning uncertainty to the type-1 memberships. By doing so, the classification result obtained by the interval type-2 fuzzy K-NN ...

M uller2 Abstract | Methods of fuzzy logic are commonly used to model a complex system by a set of rules provided by experts. But fuzzy methods can also be applied to the reverse problem: given the inputoutput behavior of a system, what are the rules which are governing that behavior. We introduce this reengineering m...

Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a technique used to compare efficiency in various sectors such as hospitals, chain stores, and dealerships. It represents a set of linear programming techniques and uses deter-ministic data (inputs and outputs), in stable conditions. The DEA technique cannot be used when there is data with indeterministic nature, or when there is an environment with dynamic co...

The paper aims to expand the concept of linguistic variable. The study analyzes the common conclusion forms in the evaluation project. The evaluation often makes the final conclusion by analyzing the fuzzy number and its membership function. However, the information of modified word or phrase (“largely”, “preliminary” and “unclear”) has got lost in analysis. The research believe these modified ...

When we deal with the estimator of a parameter, it is important for us to find an estimator with minimum variance. For this reason, this paper discuss on the variance of fuzzy random variable. There are two different approaches to the definition of the variance of a fuzzy random variable. In the first one, the variance of the fuzzy random variable is defined as a crisp number by using defuzzifi...

Fuzziness plays an essential role in the real world. Fuzzy set theory has been developed very fast since it was introduced by Zadeh (1965) [1]. A fuzzy set was characterized with its membership function by Zadeh. The term fuzzy variable was fist introduced by Kaufmann (1975) [2], and then appeared in Zadeh (1978) [3] and Nahmias (1978) [4] as a fuzzy set of real numbers. In order to establish t...

In order to efficiently manage and use knowledge, ontology technologies are widely applied to various kinds of domain knowledge. This paper proposes a Chinese term clustering mechanism for generating semantic concepts of a news ontology. We utilize the parallel fuzzy inference mechanism to infer the conceptual resonance strength of a Chinese term pair. There are four input fuzzy variables, cons...

let $r$ be a commutative ring. we write $mbox{hom}(mu_a, nu_b)$ for the set of all fuzzy $r$-morphisms from $mu_a$ to $nu_b$, where $mu_a$ and $nu_b$ are two fuzzy $r$-modules. we make$mbox{hom}(mu_a, nu_b)$ into fuzzy $r$-module by redefining a function $alpha:mbox{hom}(mu_a, nu_b)longrightarrow [0,1]$. we study the properties of the functor $mbox{hom}(mu_a,-):frmbox{-mod}rightarrow frmbox{-mo...

in this paper, we introduce and study the concept of $r$-fuzzy regular semi open (closed) sets in smooth topological spaces. by using $r$-fuzzy regular semi open (closed) sets, we define a new fuzzy closure operator namely $r$-fuzzy regular semi interior (closure) operator. also, we introduce fuzzy regular semi continuous and fuzzy regular semi irresolute mappings. moreover, we investigate the ...

In this paper, we introduce new definitions of L-fuzzy neighborhood systems, L-fuzzy interior operators and L-fuzzy closure operators. Three characterizations of the category L-FTOP of L-fuzzy topological spaces and their L-fuzzy continuous mappings are presented by means of the category L-FNS of L-fuzzy neighborhood spaces and their continuous mappings, the category L-FIS of L-fuzzy interior s...
