Some properties of integration of real-valued function over a fuzzy interval

One of the most fundamental concepts in fuzzy set theory is the extension principle. It gives a generic way of dealing with fuzzy quantities by extending non-fuzzy mathematical concepts. There are a few examples, including the concept of fuzzy distance between fuzzy sets. The extension approach is then methodically applied to real algebra, with considerable development of fuzzy number operations. These operations are computationally appealing and generalized interval analysis. Although the set of real fuzzy numbers with extended addition or multiplication is no longer a group, it retains many structural qualities. The extension concept is demonstrated to be particularly beneficial for defining set-theoretic operations for higher fuzzy sets. We need some definitions related to our properties before we can create the properties of integration of a crisp real-valued function over a fuzzy interval. It is our goal in this article to develop and demonstrate certain characteristics of a real-valued function over a fuzzy interval in order to broaden the scope of the notion of integration of a real-valued function over a fuzzy interval. Some of these characteristics are linked to the operations of extended addition and extended subtraction, while others are not.

Fuzzy covering-based rough set on two different universes and its application

In this paper, we propose a new type of fuzzy covering-based rough set model over two different universes by using Zadeh’s extension principle. We mainly address the following issues in this paper. First, we present the definition of fuzzy β-neighborhood, which can be seen as a fuzzy mapping from a universe to the set of fuzzy sets on another universe and study its properties. Then we define a new type of fuzzy covering-based rough set model on two different universes and investigate the properties of this model. Meanwhile, we give a necessary and sufficient condition under which two fuzzy β-coverings to generate the same fuzzy covering lower approximation or the same fuzzy covering upper approximation. Moreover, matrix representations of thefuzzy covering lower and fuzzy covering upper approximation operators are investigated. Finally, we propose a new approach to a kind of multiple criteria decision making problem based on fuzzy covering-based rough set model over two universes. The proposed models not onlyenrich the theory of fuzzy covering-based rough set but also provide a new perspective for multiple criteria decision making with uncertainty.

Algorithm for Finding Feedback in a Problem with Constraints for One Class of Nonlinear Control Systems

For a continuous nonlinear control system on a finite time interval with control constraints, where the right-hand side of the dynamics equations is linear in control and linearizable in the vicinity of the zero equilibrium position, we consider the construction of a feedback according to the Kalman algorithm. For this, the solution of an auxiliary optimal control problem with a quadratic functional is used by analogy with the SDRE approach.Since this approach is used in the literature to find suboptimal synthesis in optimal control problems with a quadratic functional with formally linear systems, where all coefficient matrices in differential equations and criteria can contain state variables, then on a finite time interval it becomes necessary to solve a complicated matrix differential Riccati equations, with state-dependent coefficient matrices. This circumstance, due to the nonlinearity of the system, in comparison with the Kalman algorithm for linear-quadratic problems, significantly increases the number of calculations for obtaining the coefficients of the gain matrix in the feedback and for obtaining synthesis with a given accuracy. The proposed synthesis construction algorithm is constructed using the extension principle proposed by V. F. Krotov and developed by V. I. Gurman and allows not only to expand the scope of the SDRE approach to nonlinear control problems with control constraints in the form of closed inequalities, but also to propose a more efficient computational algorithm for finding the matrix of feedback gains in control problems on a finite interval. The article establishes the correctness of the application of the extension principle by introducing analogs of the Lagrange multipliers, depending on the state and time, and also derives a formula for the suboptimal value of the quality criterion. The presented theoretical results are illustrated by calculating suboptimal feedbacks in the problems of managing three-sector economic systems.

On intuitionistic fuzzy version of Zadeh's extension principle

In this paper, by using \alpha- and \beta-cuts approach and the intuitionistic fuzzy Zadeh’s extension principle, we have proved a result which reveals that the \alpha- and \beta-cuts of an intuitionistic fuzzy number obtained by the intuitionistic fuzzy Zadeh’s extension principle coincide with the images of the \alpha- and \beta-cuts by the crisp function. Then we have given a corollary about monotonicity of the extension principle. Finally, we have extended these results to IF_N(\mathbb{R}) \times IF_N(\mathbb{R}).

Weak nonhomogeneous wavelet dual frames for Walsh reducing subspace of L2(ℝ+)

In wavelet analysis, refinable functions are the bases of extension principles for constructing (weak) dual wavelet frames for [Formula: see text] and its reducing subspaces. This paper addresses refinable function-based dual wavelet frames construction in Walsh reducing subspaces of [Formula: see text]. We obtain a Walsh–Fourier transform domain characterization for weak [Formula: see text]-adic nonhomogeneous dual wavelet frames; and present a mixed oblique extension principle for constructing weak [Formula: see text]-adic nonhomogeneous dual wavelet frames in Walsh reducing subspaces of [Formula: see text].

Application Multi-Fuzzy Soft Sets in Hypermodules

The goal of this paper is to introduce a novel soft hyperstructure called multi-fuzzy soft hyperstructure. We investigate the notion of multi-fuzzy soft hypermodules and some of their structural properties are discussed. We discuss the behavior image and inverse image of a multi-fuzzy soft set under the multi-fuzzy soft function. According to Zadeh’s extension principle, we prove that the image and inverse image of a multi-fuzzy soft hypermodules are further multi-fuzzy soft hypermodule.

Optimal Control Policy for a Two-Phase M/M/1 Unreliable Gated Queue under N-Policy with a Fuzzy Environment

The two-phase service models analyzed by several authors considered only the probabilistic nature of the queue parameters with fixed cost elements. But the queue parameters and cost elements will be in general are of both possibilistic and probabilistic in nature. Analyzing the performance of the queueing systems with fuzzy environment facilitates to investigate for the possibilistic interval estimates to the performance measures of a queueing system rather than point estimates. In this work, it is proposed to construct membership function of the fuzzy cost function to obtain confidence estimates for some performance measures of a controllable two-phase service single server Markovian gated queue with server startups and breakdowns under N-policy in which the queue parameters viz. arrival rate, startup rate, batch service rate, individual service rate, repair rate and cost elements are all defined as fuzzy numbers. Based on Zadeh’s extension principle and the α-cuts, a set of parametric nonlinear programming problems are developed to find the upper and lower bounds of the minimum total expected cost per unit time at the possibility level α. As the analytical solutions of the nonlinear programming problems developed for the proposed model are tedious, considering the system parameters and cost elements as trapezoidal fuzzy numbers, numerical results for the lower and upper bounds of the optimal threshold N* and the minimum total expected cost per unit time are computed using the nonlinear programming solver available in MATLAB.

A novel Acoustic Fluid Level Estimation Method Based on Evidence Fusion Mechanism

In order to reduce the missed detection error and the systematic error caused by acoustic resonance fluid level detection, liquid level estimation method based on evidence fusion mechanism is designed. It establishes a two dimensional dynamic system model of the standingwavelength. The state evidence of wavelength is obtained through the random set description of evidence, and the extension principle of random set is used to get the observation evidence ofwavelength. The evidential reasoning (ER) rule and dependent evidence fusion are used to fuse those evidence, and the estimation value of fluid level can be calculated from fused result based on pignistic expectation. The corresponding liquid level estimation experiment illustrates the validity and feasibilityof the proposed method.
