this study is an investigation of fuzzy linear regression model for crisp/fuzzy input and fuzzy output data. a least absolutes deviations approach to construct such a model is developed by introducing and applying a new metric on the space of fuzzy numbers. the proposed approach, which can deal with both symmetric and non-symmetric fuzzy observations, is compared with several existing models by...

in this paper, we introduce a function in order to measure the distancebetween two order intervals of fuzzy numbers, and show that this function isa metric. we investigate some properties of this metric, and finally presentan application. we think that this study could provide a more generalframework for researchers studying on interval analysis, fuzzy analysis andfuzzy decision making.

In this study a new approach to rank exponential fuzzy numbers using  -cuts is established. The metric distance of the interval numbers is extended to exponential fuzzy numbers. By using the ranking of exponential fuzzy numbers and using  -cuts the critical path of a project network is solved and illustrated by numerical examples. Keywords: Exponential Fuzzy Numbers,  -cuts, Metric Dista...

fuzzy measures are suitable in analyzing human subjective evaluation processes. several different strategies have been proposed for distance of fuzzy numbers. the distances introduced for fuzzy numbers can be categorized in two groups:1. the crisp distances which explain crisp values for the distance between two fuzzy numbers.2. the fuzzy distance which introduce a fuzzy distance for normal fuz...

considering the increasing interest in fuzzy theory and possible applications,the concept of fuzzy metric space concept has been introduced by severalauthors from different perspectives. this paper interprets the theory in termsof metrics evaluated on fuzzy numbers and defines a strong hausdorff topology.we study interrelationships between this theory and other fuzzy theories suchas intuitionis...

This paper first improves Chen and Hsieh’s definition of generalized fuzzy numbers, which makes it the generalization of definition of fuzzy numbers. Secondly, in terms of the generalized fuzzy numbers set, we introduce two different kinds of orders and arithmetic operations and metrics based on the λ-cutting sets or generalized λ-cutting sets, so that the generalized fuzzy numbers are integrat...
