The aim of this study is to compare different approaches to fuzzy systems design from different perspectives: knowledge-driven versus data-driven and rule-based (flat) versus tree-based (hierarchical). More specifically, our comparison is focused on two of the arguably most important criteria in fuzzy systems design, namely accuracy and interpretability. We compare two approaches to data-driven...

We studied the Cauchy problem of fuzzy di erential equations on the basis of introducing the concept of di erentiation which is a generalization of the de nition of H-di erentiability due to Puri and Ralescu (1983), for fuzzy set-valued mappings of real variables whose values are in the fuzzy number space (E; D). The existence and uniqueness theorem is obtained for the Cauchy problem x′=f(t; x)...

In this paper we propose the extension of some aggregation or arithmetic operations between discrete fuzzy numbers to discrete fuzzy number-valued multisets such as the addition, the union and the intersection and, even, the order. For this reason, we prove or recall some properties of discrete fuzzy numbers and we undertake their study on multisets.

The aim of this paper is to introduce and study the fuzzy neighborhood, the limit fuzzy number, the convergent fuzzy sequence, the bounded fuzzy sequence, and the Cauchy fuzzy sequence on the base which is adopted by Abdul Hameed every real number r is replaced by a fuzzy number r either triangular fuzzy number or singleton fuzzy set fuzzy point . And then, we will consider that some results re...

in this paper we enumerate fuzzy subgroups, up to a natural equivalence, of some finite abelian p-groups of rank two where p is any prime number. after obtaining the number of maximal chains of subgroups, we count fuzzy subgroups using inductive arguments. the number of such fuzzy subgroups forms a polynomial in p with pleasing combinatorial coefficients. by exploiting the order, we label the s...

recently, abbasbandy and asady have been proposed a modificationof the distance based approach, namely ``sign distance method''.however, in this paper, it is shown that this method has some drawbacks, i.e.,the result is not consistent with human intuition for specialcases and this method cannot always logically infer rankingorder of the images of the fuzzy numbers. in this paper, wepresent a re...

the objective of this paper is to deal with the fuzzy conic program- ming problems. the aim here is to derive weak and strong duality theorems for a general fuzzy conic programming. toward this end, the convexity-like concept of fuzzy mappings is introduced and then a speci c ordering cone is established based on the parameterized representation of fuzzy numbers. un- der this setting, duality t...

The goal of multi-frame Super Resolution (SR) is to fuse multiple Low Resolution (LR) images to produce one High Resolution (HR) image. The major challenge of classic SR approaches is accurate motion estimation between the frames. To handle this challenge, fuzzy motion estimation method has been proposed that replaces value of each pixel using the weighted averaging all its neighboring pixels i...
