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...

Since fuzzy logic was introduced by Lotfi Zadeh in 1965 (41), it has had many successful applications in all fields that one can imagine. The reason is that many real-world applications problems are involved the systems in which at least some parameters are represented by fuzzy numbers rather than crisp numbers and linguistic labels such as small and large are also associated with the fuzzy set...

Considering a commutative unital quantale L as the truth value table and using the tool of L-generalized convergence structures of stratified L-filters, this paper introduces a kind of fuzzy upper topology, called fuzzy S-upper topology, on L-preordered sets. It is shown that every fuzzy join-preserving L-subset is open in this topology. When L is a complete Heyting algebra, for every completel...

In this paper a new aggregation operator for a class of LR Fuzzy Numbers i.e., Triangular Fuzzy Numbers (TFNs) in which the Land Rapex angles of the piecewise continuous linear membership function of the composite or resultant or aggregate TFN are the arithmetic means of the corresponding Land Rapex angles of the individual TFNs is proposed. The Land Rapex angles have been treated independently...

In this paper, we will illustrate the F-transform based on generalized fuzzy partitions as a tool for expectile smoothing. This allows to represent a time series in terms of a fuzzy-valued function whose level-cuts are modeled by F-transform and estimated by expectile regression. The proposed methodology is illustrated on real economic and …nancial time series. Keywords: Fuzzy Transform, Expect...

The $L$-fuzzy approximation operator associated with an $L$-fuzzy approximation space $(X,R)$ turns out to be a saturated $L$-fuzzy closure (interior) operator on a set $X$ precisely when the relation $R$ is reflexive and transitive. We investigate the relations between $L$-fuzzy approximation spaces and $L$-(fuzzy) topological spaces.

2. Fuzzy stochastic processes First we give some mathematical notations regarding fuzzy numbers. Let (Ω,M, P ) be a probability space, where M is a σ-field and P is a non-atomic probability measure. R denotes the set of all real numbers, and let C(R) be the set of all non-empty bounded closed intervals. A ‘fuzzy number’ is denoted by its membership function ã : R → [0, 1] which is normal, upper...

In this paper, a quadratic programming (FFQP) problem is considered in which all of the cost coefficients, constraints coefficients, and right hand side of the constraints are characterized by L-R fuzzy numbers. Through this paper, the concept of α- level of fuzzy numbers for the objective function, and the order relations on the fuzzy numbers for the constraints are considered.  To optimize th...

data obtained in association with many real-life random experiments from different fields cannot be perfectly/exactly quantified.hspace{.1cm}often the underlying imprecision can be suitably described in terms of fuzzy numbers/values. for these random experiments, the scale of fuzzy numbers/values enables to capture more variability and subjectivity than that of categorical data, and more accura...
