in this paper, we introduce a satisfaction function (sf) to compare interval values on the basis oftseng and klein’s idea. the sf estimates the degree to which arithmetic comparisons between two intervalvalues are satisfied. then, we define two other functions called lower and upper sf based on the sf. weapply these functions in order to present a new interpretation of inequality constraints wi...

in this paper a linear fuzzy fredholm integral equation(ffie) with arbitrary fuzzy function input and symmetric triangular (fuzzy interval) output is considered. for each variable, output is the nearest triangular fuzzy number (fuzzy interval) to the exact fuzzy solution of (ffie).

in this paper, the notions of $(t,s)$-composition matrix and$(t,s)$-interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy equivalence matrix areintroduced where $(t,s)$ is a dual pair of triangular module. theyare the generalization of composition matrix and interval-valuedintuitionistic fuzzy equivalence matrix. furthermore, theirproperties and characterizations are presented. then a new methodbased on $tilde{...

in this paper, we present a revised similarity measure based onchen-and-chen's similarity measure for fuzzy risk analysis. the revisedsimilarity measure uses the corrected formulae to calculate the centre ofgravity points, therefore it is more  effective than the chen-and-chen'smethod. the revised similarity measure can overcome the drawbacks of theexisting methods. we have also proposed a new ...

This paper introduces the Interval Logarithmic Number System (ILNS), in which the Logarithmic Number System (LNS) is used as the underlying number system for interval arithmetic. The basic operations in ILNS are introduced and an efficient method for performing ILNS addition and subtraction is presented. The paper compares ILNS to Interval Floating Point (IFP) for a few sample applications. For...
