Most decision making methods used to evaluate a system or demonstrate the weak and strength points are based on fuzzy sets and evaluate the criteria with words that are modeled with fuzzy sets. The ambiguity and vagueness of the words and different perceptions of a word are not considered in these methods. For this reason, the decision making methods that consider the perceptions of decision...

Sign language recognition has spawned more and more interest in human–computer interaction society. The major challenge that SLR recognition faces now is developing methods that will scale well with increasing vocabulary size with a limited set of training data for the signer independent application. The automatic SLR based on hidden Markov models (HMMs) is very sensitive to gesture's shape inf...

The design of weight is one of the important parts in fuzzy decision making, as it would have a deep effect on the evaluation results. Entropy is one of the weight measure based on objective evaluation. Non--probabilistic-type entropy measures for fuzzy set and interval type-2 fuzzy sets (IT2FS) have been developed and applied to weight measure. Since the entropy for (IT2FS) for decision making...

In many contexts, type-2 fuzzy sets (T2 FS) are obtained from a type-1 set to which we wish add uncertainty. However, in the current representation, there is no restriction on shape of footprint uncertainty and embedded (ESs) that can be considered acceptable. This leads, usually, loss semantic relationship between T2 FS concept it models. As consequence, interpretability some ESs explainabilit...

As a result of emerging computation technologies, information systems are developed to support various processes of enterprises. ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) has been a leading EIS (Enterprise Information Systems) application and companies are allocating resources to such new projects. However, studies report that most of the projects fail or cannot reach the desired outcomes selecting in...

In recent years, there have been a growing interest in developing Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) and Group Decision Making (GDM) using type-2 fuzzy sets and Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets (IFSs) which provide frameworks to handle the encountered uncertainties in decision making models. Previous research has shown the power of type-2 fuzzy logic systems to handle the linguistic uncertainties. ...

The Multiple Attribute Group Decision Making (MAGDM) problems are investigated in which all the information provided by the decision-makers is presented as interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy decision matrices, and the information about attribute weights is partially known. Three different models are utilized for calculating the completely unknown attribute weights which are then used for aggr...

Finding a product with high quality and reasonable price online is a difficult task due to the fuzzy nature of data and queries. In order to handle the fuzzy problem, a new type-2 fuzzy reasoning based decision support system, the Web Shopping Expert for online users is proposed. In the Web Shopping Expert, an interval type-2 fuzzy logic system is used and a fuzzy output can be obtained using t...

a novel technique is investigated for pid controller adaptation in order to control thetemperature of a liquid-phase reactor tank by using a heat exchanger system. as for nonlinearity,time delay problems and model uncertainties introduced by the heat exchanger, an interval type-2fuzzy system (it2fs) is implemented to enhance and improve the total control performance.moreover, the fuzzy inferenc...
