We establish relationships between the set of trapezoidal intuitionistic fuzzy numbers and the set of interval-valued trapezoidal fuzzy numbers and, on the other hand, between the set of triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers and the set of triangular fuzzy numbers. Based on these main results of the paper, the methods or procedures elaborated for interval-valued trapezoidal or triangular fuzz...

in a previous work, we introduced particular fuzzy numbers anddiscussed some of their properties. in this paper we use the comparison methodintroduced by dorohonceanu and marin[5] to compare between these fuzzynumbers.

We propose a new approach to assigning distance between fuzzy numbers. A pseudo-metric on the set of fuzzy numbers and a metric on the set of trapezoidal fuzzy numbers are described. The regular reducing functions and the Hausdorff metric are used to define the metric. Using this metric, we can approximate an arbitrary generalized left right fuzzy number with a trapezoidal one. Finally, powers ...

different methods have been proposed for finding the non-negative solution of fully fuzzy linear system (ffls) i.e. fuzzy linear system with fuzzy coefficients involving fuzzy variables. to the best of our knowledge, there is no method in the literature for finding the non-negative solution of a ffls without any restriction on the coefficient matrix. in this paper a new computational method is ...

Ranking fuzzy numbers plays a main role in many applied models inreal world and in particular decision-making procedures. In manyproposed methods by other researchers may exist some shortcoming.The most commonly used approaches for ranking fuzzy numbers isbased on defuzzification method. Many ranking fuzzy numberscannot discriminate between two symmetric fuzzy numbers withidentical core. In 200...

In general fuzzy linear regression, the coefficients of the fuzzy regression model are symmetric triangular fuzzy numbers, while we try to replace them by more general ones, which are asymmetric trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. Possibility of equality between two asymmetric trapezoidal fuzzy numbers is explained by possibility distribution. Two different models are presented in this paper. Furthermor...

In this paper, we present a new prioritization method for information fusion under fuzzy environment. We propose a new measure to measure the similarity between generalized trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. Based on the proposed similarity measure, we develop an utility function of generalized trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. With the utility function of generalized trapezoidal fuzzy numbers, we propose a n...

Ranking of fuzzy numbers plays a very important role in linguistic decision making and some other fuzzy application systems. Several strategies have been proposed for ranking of fuzzy numbers. Each of these techniques has been shown to produce nonintuitive results in certain cases. In this paper, some new approaches for ranking of trapezoidal fuzzy numbers are introduced. Keywords— Magnitude of...

Many authors analyzed triangular and trapezoidal approximation of fuzzy numbers. But, to best of our knowledge, there is no method for symmetric trapezoidal fuzzy number approximation of fuzzy numbers. So, in this paper, we try to convert any fuzzy number into symmetric trapezoidal fuzzy number by using metric distance. This approximation helps us to avoid the computational complexity in the pr...
