The fuzzy approach has undergone a profound structural transformation in the past few decades. Numerous studies have been undertaken to explain fuzzy approach for linear and nonlinear programs. While, the findings in earlier studies have been conflicting, recent studies of competitive situations indicate that fractional programming problem has a positive impact on comparative scenario. We pro...

Let $L$ be an integral and commutative quantale. In this paper, by fuzzifying the notion of generalized neighborhood systems, the notion of $L$-fuzzy generalized neighborhoodsystem is introduced and then a pair of lower and upperapproximation operators based on it are defined and discussed. It is proved that these approximation operators include generalized neighborhood system...

In this paper, we proposed a new interval-valued approximation of interval-valued fuzzy numbers, which is the best one with respect to a certain measure of distance between interval-valued fuzzy numbers. Also, a set of criteria for interval-valued approximation operators is suggested.

In this paper, we prove new distance properties between a fuzzy number and its trapezoidal approximation preserving the expected interval. Then, we find the best Lipschitz constant of the trapezoidal approximation operator preserving the expected interval. Finally, we use this result in finding within a reasonable error the trapezoidal approximation of a fuzzy number preserving the expected int...

The present paper is concerned with the problem of weighted best simultaneous approximations in Banach spaces. The weighted best simultaneous approximations to sequences from Sand BS-suns in the Banach space are characterized in view of the Kolmogorov conditions. Applications are provided for weighted best simultaneous approximations from RS-sets and strict RS-sets. Our results obtained in the ...

The shapes of if-part fuzzy sets affect the approximating capability of fuzzy systems. In this paper, the fuzzy systems with the kernel-shaped if-part fuzzy sets are built directly from the training data. It is proved that these fuzzy systems are universal approximators and their uniform approximation rates can be estimated in the single-input–single-output (SISO) case. On the basis of these ra...

We study the behavior of best simultaneous (lq , Lp)-approximation by rational functions on an interval, when the measure tends to zero. In addition, we consider the case of polynomial approximation on a finite union of intervals. We also get an interpolation result.

The problem of best simultaneous approximation has a long history and continues to generate much interest. The problem of approximating simultaneously two continuous functions on a finite closed interval was first studied by Dunham 1 . Since then, such problems have been extended extensively, see, for example, 1–7 and references therein. In particular, characterization and uniqueness results we...

The main purpose of this paper is to consider the new kind of approximation which is called as t-best coapproximation in fuzzy n-normed spaces. The set of all t-best coapproximation define the t-coproximinal, t-co-Chebyshev and F-best coapproximation and then prove several theorems pertaining to this sets. Keywords—Fuzzy-n-normed space, best coapproximation, co-proximinal, co-Chebyshev, F-best ...
