In recent work authors have proposed four new aggregation operators for triangular and trapezoidal fuzzy numbers based on means of apex angles [1][2][3][4]. Subsequently authors have proposed [5] a new aggregation operator for TFNs based on the arithmetic mean of slopes of the L- and R- membership lines. In this paper the work is extended and a new aggregation operator for TFNs is proposed in which the L- and R- membership function lines of the aggregate TFN have slopes which are the geometric means of the corresponding L- and R- slopes of the individual TFNs. Computation of the aggregate is demonstrated with a numerical example. Corresponding arithmetic and geometric aggregates as well as results from the recent work of the authors on TFN aggregates have also been computed.

We  study  the  problem:   if  a˜i,   i  ∈  N   are  fuzzy  numbers  of  triangular  form,  then  what is the membership function of the infinite (or finite) sum -˜a1   +  a˜2   +  · · ·   (defined  via  the sub-product-norm convolution)

In this paper, we concentrate on two kinds of fuzzy linear programming problems: linear programming problems with only fuzzy resource variables and linear programming problems in which both the resource variables and the technological coefficients are fuzzy numbers. We consider here only the case of fuzzy numbers with modified s-curve membership functions. We propose here the modified s-curve membership function as a methodology for fuzzy linear programming and use it for solving these problems. We also compare the new proposed method with non-fuzzy linear programming optimization method. Finally, we provide real life application examples in production planning and their numerical solutions.

The symmetry between fuzzy evaluations and crisp numbers provides an effective solution to multiple attribute decision making (MADM) problems under fuzzy environments. Considering the effect of information distribution on decision making, a novel approach to MADM problems under the interval-valued q-rung orthopair fuzzy (Iq-ROF) environments is put forward. Firstly, the clustering method of interval-valued q-rung orthopair fuzzy numbers (Iq-ROFNs) is defined. Secondly, Iq-ROF density weighted arithmetic (Iq-ROFDWA) intermediate operator and Iq-ROF density weighted geometric average (Iq-ROFDWGA) intermediate operator are developed based on the density weighted intermediate operators for crisp numbers. Thirdly, combining the density weighted intermediate operators with the Iq-ROF weighted aggregation operators, Iq-ROF density aggregation operators including Iq-ROF density weighted arithmetic (Iq-ROFDWAA) aggregation operator and Iq-ROF density weighted geometric (Iq-ROFDWGG) aggregation operator are proposed. Finally, effectiveness of the proposed method is verified through a numerical example.

In this paper we analyze a group decision procedure that follows a recursive pattern. In the first stage, the members of a group show their opinions on all the individuals of that group, regarding a specific attribute, by means of assessments within an ordered set, e.g. the unit interval or a finite scale. Taking into account this information, some aggregation operators and a family of thresholds, a subgroup of individuals is selected: those members whose collective assessment reach a specific threshold. Now only the opinions of this qualified subgroup are taken into account and a new subgroup emerges in the implementation of the aggregation phase. We analyze how to put in practice this recursive procedure in order to provide a final subgroup of qualified members. We have considered the minimum as aggregation operator. Thus, the collective assessment is just the worst of the individual assessments. This idea corresponds to qualify individuals whenever all the individual assessments reach the fixed threshold.

In this paper, a new approach for computation of membership functions of the maximum and minimum of more than two upper semi-continuous fuzzy numbers has been introduced. This method is also applicable for piece-wise continuous fuzzy numbers or the fuzzy numbers which are only continuous from right or only continuous from left. The core of fuzzy numbers should have a singleton set. Keywords: Continuous fuzzy number; piece-wise continuous fuzzy number; Maximum (MAX) and Minimum (MIN) of fuzzy number; core; α-cut; bounded increasing and bounded decreasing functions; membership function.

The concept of this paper represents finding fuzzy critical path using octagonal fuzzy number. In project scheduling, a new method has been approached to identify the critical path by using Symmetric Octagonal Intuitionistic Fuzzy Number (SYMOCINTFN). For getting a better solution, we use the fuzzy octagonal number rather than other fuzzy numbers. The membership functions of the earliest and latest times of events are by calculating lower and upper bounds of the earliest and latest times considering octagonal fuzzy duration. The resulting conditions omit the negative and infeasible solution. The membership function takes up an essential role in finding a new solution. Based on membership function, fuzzy number can be identified in different categories such as Triangular, Trapezoidal, pentagonal, hexagonal, octagonal, decagonal, hexa decagonal fuzzy numbers etc.

Picture fuzzy numbers (PFNs), as the generalization of fuzzy sets, are good at fully expressing decision makers’ opinions with four membership degrees. Since aggregation operators are simple but powerful tools, this study aims to explore some aggregation operators with PFNs to solve practical decision-making problems. First, new operational rules, the interaction operations of PFNs, are defined to overcome the drawbacks of existing operations. Considering that interrelationships may exist only in part of criteria, rather than all of the criteria in reality, the partitioned Heronian aggregation operator is modified with PFNs to deal with this condition. Then, desirable properties are proved and several special cases are discussed. New decision-making methods with these presented aggregation operators are suggested to process hotel selection issues. Last, their practicability and merits are certified by sensitivity analyses and comparison analyses with other existing approaches. The results indicate that our methods are feasible to address such situations where criteria interact in the same part, but are independent from each other at different parts.

In this paper, a computer implementation to evaluate the arithmetic operations on two fuzzy numbers with linear membership functions has been developed. The fuzzy arithmetic approached by the interval arithmetic is used here. The algorithm of the developed method with a numerical example is also provided. Using this method four basic arithmetic operations between any two TFNs can be evaluated without complexity. Keywords: Fuzzy arithmetic, Fuzzy number, Membership Function, Interval arithmetic, α - cut.

Atanassov’s intuitionistic fuzzy sets (AIFSs), characterized by a membership function, a non-membership function, and a hesitancy function, is a generalization of a fuzzy set. There are various intuitionistic fuzzy hybrid weighted aggregation operators to deal with multi-attribute decision making problems which consider the importance degrees of the arguments and their ordered positions simultaneously. However, these existing hybrid weighed aggregation operators are not monotone with respect to the total order on intuitionistic fuzzy values (AIFVs), which is undesirable. Based on the Łukasiewicz triangular norm, we propose an intuitionistic fuzzy hybrid weighted arithmetic mean, which is monotone with respect to the total order on AIFVs, and therefore is a true generalization of such operations. We give an example that a company intends to select a project manager to illustrate the validity and applicability of the proposed aggregation operator. Moreover, we extend this kind of hybrid weighted arithmetic mean to the interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy environments.
