Abstract Intuitionistic hesitant fuzzy set (IHFS) is a mixture of two separated notions called intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS) and hesitant fuzzy set (HFS), as an important technique to cope with uncertain and awkward information in realistic decision issues. IHFS contains the grades of truth and falsity in the form of the subset of the unit interval. The notion of IHFS was defined by many scholars with different conditions, which contain several weaknesses. Here, keeping in view the problems of already defined IHFSs, we will define IHFS in another way so that it becomes compatible with other… More >

Abstract The environmental impact of maritime transport has now become a relevant issue in sustainable policy formulation and has attracted increasing interest from academia. For the sustainable development of maritime transport, International Maritime Organization stipulates that the sulfur content of ship emissions will reach 0.5 from 2020. With the approaching of the stipulated implementation date, shipowners need to adopt scientific methods to make decision on low sulfur fuel. In this study, we applied a prospect theory based hesitant fuzzy multi-criteria decision-making model to obtain the optimal decision of low Sulphur marine fuel. For this purpose, the… More >

Abstract The arrival of big data era has brought new opportunities and challenges to the development of various industries in China. The explosive growth of commercial bank data has brought great pressure on internal audit. The key audit of key products limited to key business areas can no longer meet the needs. It is difficult to find abnormal and exceptional risks only by sampling analysis and static analysis. Exploring the organic integration and business processing methods between big data and bank internal audit, Internal audit work can protect the stable and sustainable development of banks under… More >

Abstract In this paper, a color image segmentation algorithm is proposed by extracting both texture and color features and applying them to the one -against-all multi class support vector machine (MSVM) classifier for segmentation. Local Binary Pattern is used for extracting the textural features and L*a*b color model is used for obtaining the color features. The MSVM is trained using the samples obtained from a novel soft rough fuzzy c-means (SRFCM) clustering. The fuzzy set based membership functions capably handle the problem of overlapping clusters. The lower and upper approximation concepts of rough sets deal well More >

Abstract Intuitionistic fuzzy Petri net is an important class of Petri nets, which can be used to model the knowledge base system based on intuitionistic fuzzy production rules. In order to solve the problem of poor self-learning ability of intuitionistic fuzzy systems, a new Petri net modeling method is proposed by introducing BP (Error Back Propagation) algorithm in neural networks. By judging whether the transition is ignited by continuous function, the intuitionistic fuzziness of classical BP algorithm is extended to the parameter learning and training, which makes Petri network have stronger generalization ability and adaptive function, More >

Abstract The dynamic analysis of damped structural system by using finite element method leads to nonlinear eigenvalue problem (NEP) (particularly, quadratic eigenvalue problem). In general, the parameters of NEP are considered as exact values. But in actual practice because of different errors and incomplete information, the parameters may have uncertain or vague values and such uncertain values may be considered in terms of fuzzy numbers. This article proposes an efficient fuzzy-affine approach to solve fully fuzzy nonlinear eigenvalue problems (FNEPs) where involved parameters are fuzzy numbers viz. triangular and trapezoidal. Based on the parametric form, fuzzy… More >

Abstract Traditional [0; 1] based fuzzy sets were originally invented to describe expert knowledge expressed in terms of imprecise “fuzzy” words from the natural language. To make this description more adequate, several generalizations of the traditional [0; 1] based fuzzy sets have been proposed, among them type- 2 fuzzy sets and Z-numbers. The main objective of this paper is to study the relation between these two generalizations. As a result of this study, we show that if we apply data processing to Z-numbers, then we get type-2 sets of special type —that we call monotonic. We More >

Abstract The theory of Zets is presented and the standard techniques of set theory allows for the development of a rich algebra of Zets. It shows that Zets and fuzzy sets are essentially interchangeable. However, the fundamental manipulations, techniques, and definitions of Zets are simple and more amenable to analyze. For example, the extension principle is easy to define. More >

Abstract In this paper, we present a new approach to a time-optimal control problem with uncertainties. The dynamics of the controlled object, expressed by a linear system of differential equations, is assumed to be crisp, while the initial and final phase states are fuzzy sets. We interpret the problem as a set of crisp problems. We introduce a new notion of fuzzy optimal time and transform its calculation to two classical time-optimal control problems with initial and final sets. We examine the proposed approach on an example which is a problem of fuzzy control of mathematical More >

Abstract Uncertainties in some parameters of problems of Leontief input-output analysis lead naturally to fuzzy linear systems. In this work, we consider input-output model, where the technology matrix is crisp and the vector of final outputs is fuzzy. The model is expressed by a fuzzy linear system with crisp matrix and with fuzzy right-hand side vector. We apply a geometric method for solving the system. The method finds the solution in the form of a fuzzy set of vectors. The solution set is shown to be a parallelepiped in coordinate space and is expressed by an More >
