Fuzzy Hamming Distance is successfully used in a Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) system as a similarity measure. The system performs a m × n partitioning of the compared images and for each partitions pairs evaluates FHD. In the last step the FHD are defuzzified and the results are combined in a final score. In order to take full advantage of the use of fuzzy sets, the current study invest...

Fuzzy subgroups and T -vague groups are interesting fuzzy algebraic structures that have been widely studied. While fuzzy subgroups fuzzify the concept of crisp subgroup, T -vague groups can be identified with quotient groups of a group by a normal fuzzy subgroup and there is a close relation between both structures and T -indistinguishability operators (fuzzy equivalence relations). In this pa...

jahanshahloo has suggested a method for the solving linear programming problems with zero-one variables‎. ‎in this paper we formulate fully fuzzy linear programming problems with zero-one variables and a method for solving these problems is presented using the ranking function and also the branch and bound method along with an example is presented.

let $(x, n)$ be a fuzzy normed space and $a$ be a fuzzy boundedsubset of $x$.  we define fuzzy $ell^infty$-sums and fuzzy $c_0$-sums offuzzy normed spaces. then we will show that in these spaces, all  fuzzyuniquely remotal sets are singletons.

Uninorms are a generalization of t-norms and t-conorms for which the neutral element is an element of [0, 1] which is not necessarily equal to 0 (as for t-norms) or 1 (as for t-conorms). Uninorms on the unit interval are either conjunctive or disjunctive, i.e. they aggregate the pair (0, 1) to either 0 or 1. In real-life applications, this kind of aggregation may be counter-intuitive. Interval-...

Given the uncertain market demands and capacities in production environment, this paper discusses some practical approaches to modeling multiproduct aggregate production planning problems with fuzzy demands, fuzzy capacities, and financial constraints. By formulating the fuzzy demand, fuzzy equation, and fuzzy capacities, a fuzzy production-inventory balance equation for single period and a dyn...

In the real situations, decision makers are often faced to a plurality of objectives and constraints in a world of imprecise data about the preferences of agents, the local constraints and the global environment. In a fuzzy environment, fuzzy linear programming (FLP) and fuzzy goal programming (FGP) problems incorporate fuzzy objective functions and constraints, fuzzy parameters and variable se...

For general type-2 fuzzy sets, the defuzzification process is very complex, and the exhaustive direct method of implementing type-reduction is computationally expensive and turns out to be impractical. This has inevitably hindered the development of type-2 fuzzy inferencing systems in real world applications. The present situation will not be expected to change, unless an efficient and fast met...
