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 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.

The concept of fuzzy number intuitionistic fuzzy sets (FNIFSs) is designed to effectively depict uncertain information in decision making problems which fundamental characteristic of the FNIFS is that the values of its membership function and non-membership function are depicted with triangular fuzzy numbers (TFNs). The dual Hamy mean (DHM) operator gets good performance in the process of information aggregation due to its ability to capturing the interrelationships among aggregated values. In this paper, we used the dual Hamy mean (DHM) operator and dual weighted Hamy mean (WDHM) operator with fuzzy number intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (FNIFNs) to propose the fuzzy number intuitionistic fuzzy dual Hamy mean (FNIFDHM) operator and fuzzy number intuitionistic fuzzy weighted dual Hamy mean (FNIFWDHM) operator. Then the MADM methods are proposed along with these operators. In the end, we utilize an applicable example for computer network security evaluation to prove the proposed methods.

<p>In this paper, based on the fuzzy structured element, we prove that there is a bijection function between the fuzzy number space ε1 and the space B[−1, 1], which defined as a set of standard monotonic bounded functions with monotonicity on interval [−1, 1]. Furthermore, a new approach based upon the monotonic bounded functions has been proposed to create fuzzy numbers and represent them by suing fuzzy structured element. In order to make two different metrics based space in B[−1, 1], Hausdorff metric and Lp metric, which both are classical functional metrics, are adopted and their topological properties are discussed. In addition, by the means of introducing fuzzy functional to space B[−1, 1], we present two new fuzzy number’s metrics. Finally, according to the proof of homeomorphism between fuzzy number space ε1 and the space B[−1, 1], it’s argued that not only does it give a new way to study the fuzzy analysis theory, but also makes the study of fuzzy number space easier.</p>

As the number of parameters involved in an economic model is often uncertain, we propose that it be estimated using fuzzy numbers. Since we move in an environment of uncertainty, it is logical to leave room for deviation in estimating membership functions. We should recall that when soft max-min operators are used, the resulting deviation is never greater than the variation introduced in estimating the initial data. Often, the result of our calculations is not a triangular fuzzy number. In this paper we study the value of approximating the resulting non-linear fuzzy number using a triangular fuzzy number having the same support and kernel. Finally, we present a simple method for weighing this approximation.

Statistical Viewpoint

Intuitionistic fuzzy sets are a generalization of ordinary fuzzy sets which are characterized by a membership function and a non-membership function. In this paper we consider the problem of ranking a set of intuitionistic fuzzy numbers. We adopt a statistical viewpoint and interpret each intuitionistic fuzzy number as an ensemble of ordinary fuzzy numbers. This enables us to define a fuzzy rank and a characteristic vagueness factor for each intuitionistic fuzzy number. We show the reasonablesness of the results obtained by examining several test cases.

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.

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.

Neutrosophic Number

This research paper adds to the theory of the generalized neutrosophic number from a distinctive frame of reference. It is universally known that the concept of a neutrosophic number is generally associated with and strongly related to the concept of positive, indeterminacy and non-belongingness membership functions. Currently, all membership functions always lie within the range of 0 to 1. However, we have generated bipolar concept in this paper where the membership contains both positive and negative parts within the range −1 to 0 and 0 to 1. We describe different structures of generalized triangular bipolar neutrosophic numbers, such as category-1, category-2, and category-3, in relation to the membership functions containing dependency or independency with each other. Researchers from different fields always want to observe the co-relationship and interdependence between fuzzy numbers and crisp numbers. In this platform, we also created the perception of de-bipolarization for a triangular bipolar rneutrosophic number with the help of well-known techniques so that any bipolar neutrosophic fuzzy number of any type can be smoothly converted into a real number instantly. Creating a problem using bipolar neutrosophic perception is a more reliable, accurate, and trustworthy method than others. In this paper, we have also taken into account a multi-criteria decision-making problem (MCDM) for different users in the bipolar neutrosophic domain.

In the study presented here, fuzzy logic was used to analyze the behavior of a model of economic dynamics that assumes income to be in equilibrium when it is composed of consumption and investment, that is, when savings and investment are equal. The study considered that consumption and savings depend on the income of the previous period through uncertain factors, and, at the same time, that investment is an uncertain magnitude across various periods, represented as a fuzzy number with a known membership function. Under these conditions, the model determines the factor of income growth and investments required to maintain equilibrium, as well as the uncertain values of income for the different periods, expressed through fuzzy numbers. The study also analyzes the conditions for their convergence and the fuzzy value that income represents in equilibrium.
