Most of the researches in the domain of fuzzy number comparisons serve the fuzzy number ordering purpose. For making a comparison between two fuzzy numbers, beyond the determination of their order, it is needed to derive the magnitude of their order. In line with this idea, the concept of inequality is no longer crisp however it becomes fuzzy in the sense of representing partial belonging or de...

This paper deals with systems of fuzzy inequalities. It shows that a system of fuzzy inequalities with piecewise linear membership functions can be converted to a one-constraint nonlinear programming problem by employing the concepts of constraint surrogation and maximum entropy. An augmented Lagrangean algorithm is then applied to solve the resulting problem. Some computational results are inc...

The paper is concerned with robust stability criteria for Takagi- Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy systems with distributed delays and time delay in the leakage term. By exploiting a model transformation, the system is converted to one of the neutral delay system. Global robust stability result is proposed by a new Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional which takes into account the range of delay and by making use o...

the main goal of the present paper is to extend classical results from the measure theory and dynamical systems to the fuzzy subset setting. in this paper, the notion of  dynamic equivalence relation is introduced and then it is proved that this relation is an equivalence relation. also, a new metric on the collection of all equivalence classes is introduced and it is proved that this metric is...

Abstract In this paper, we introduce the non-convex interval-valued functions for fuzzy-interval-valued functions, which are called "Equation missing"-convex by means of fuzzy order relation. This relation is defined level-wise through Kulisch–Miranker given on interval space. By using -->-convexity concept, present fuzzy-interval Hermite–Hadamard inequali...

This paper is concerned with the stability analysis for T-S fuzzy control systems. By exploiting the property of the structure of fuzzy inference engine, an equivalence relation on index set of the product of fuzzy rule weights is defined. Further, a new stability criterion is proposed by using the equivalence relation, and formulated into progressively less conservative sets of linear matrix i...

In this paper, the concepts of positive dependence and linearlypositive quadrant dependence are introduced for fuzzy random variables. Also,an inequality is obtained for partial sums of linearly positive quadrant depen-dent fuzzy random variables. Moreover, a weak law of large numbers is estab-lished for linearly positive quadrant dependent fuzzy random variables. Weextend some well known inequ...

Classical solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations are approximated in the paper by solutions of quasilinear systems of difference equations. Sufficient conditions for the convergence of the method are given. The proof of the stability of the difference problem is based on a comparison method. This new approach to the numerical solving of nonlinear equations is generated by a linea...

Interval-valued fuzzy soft sets realize a hybrid soft computing model in a general framework. Both Molodtsov's soft sets and interval-valued fuzzy sets can be seen as special cases of interval-valued fuzzy soft sets. In this study, we first compare four different types of interval-valued fuzzy soft subsets and reveal the relations among them. Then we concentrate on investigating some nonclassic...
