it is firstly proved that the multi-input-single-output (miso) fuzzy systems based on interval-valued $r$- and $s$-implications can approximate any continuous function defined on a compact set to arbitrary accuracy.  a formula to compute the lower upper bounds on the number  of interval-valued fuzzy sets needed to achieve a pre-specified approximation  accuracy for an arbitrary multivariate con...

A novel approach to the problem of regression modeling for fuzzy input-output data is introduced.In order to estimate the parameters of the model, a distance on the space of interval-valued quantities is employed.By minimizing the sum of squared errors, a class of regression models is derived based on the interval-valued data obtained from the $alpha$-level sets of fuzzy input-output data.Then,...

This paper revisits interval-valued fuzzy regression and proposes a new unified framework to address type-1 type-2 models. The focuses on two main objectives. First, some philosophical methodological reflections about (IV-T1FR) (IV-T2FR) are discussed analyzed. These aim at positioning avoid misinterpretations that may sometimes lead erroneous or ambiguous considerations in practical applicatio...

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{...

Current regression models for interval-valued data do not guarantee that the predicted lower bound of the interval is always smaller than its upper bound. We propose a constrained regression model that preserves the natural order of the interval in all instances, either for in-sample fitted intervals or for interval forecasts. Within the framework of interval time series, we specify a general d...

In recent years, the type-2 fuzzy sets theory has been used to model and minimize the effects of uncertainties in rule-base fuzzy logic system (FLS). In order to make the type-2 FLS reasonable and reliable, a new simple and novel statistical method to decide interval-valued fuzzy membership functions and probability type reduce reasoning method for the interval-valued FLS are developed. We have...

The aim of this paper is to define the productoperation on a family of interval valued events and the notion ofjoint interval valued observable. We show the connection betweenproduct operations for interval valued events and intuitionisticfuzzy events, too. We display the relation between joint intervalvalued observable and joint intuitionistic fuzzy observable. We...
