End-point linear functions

A. Stupnanova; Y. Su; R. Mesiar

Volume 18, Issue 6 , November and December 2021, Pages 1-12

Abstract
  Positive homogeneity is represented as a constraint 0-homogeneity and generalized into z-homogeneity, called also z-end point linearity. Several special z-homogeneous aggregation functions are studied, in particular semicopulas, quasi-copulas, copulas, overlap functions, etc.  Read More

Adaptive control design for fixed-time synchronization of fuzzy stochastic cellular neural networks with discrete and distributed delay

Y. Liu; M. Liu; X. Xu

Volume 18, Issue 6 , November and December 2021, Pages 13-28

Abstract
  This paper studies the fixed-time synchronization problem of fuzzy stochastic cellular neural networks (FSCNNs) with discrete and distributed delay. Compared with the finite-time synchronization in the existing literature, the fixed-time synchronization of FSCNNs is studied for the first time, and the ...  Read More

Calculation of centroid of high dimensional fuzzy number and application

G. Wang; Y. Xu

Volume 18, Issue 6 , November and December 2021, Pages 29-44

Abstract
  In this paper, the conception of centroid of $n$-dimensional fuzzy number is introduced viaregarding its membership function as the density function on its support set, and some properties of it are obtained. Compared with the mean of the multi dimensional fuzzy number, the centroid takes into account ...  Read More

Structural topology in a category

S. N. Hosseini; R. Amini

Volume 18, Issue 6 , November and December 2021, Pages 45-54

Abstract
  Several fuzzy topologies are defined and studied by different authors. In this article, we unify five of the most common fuzzy topologies existing in the literature, as well as the standard topology. This is done by introducing the notion of structural topology on objects in a category and proving that ...  Read More

A new definition of fuzzy k-pseudo metric and its induced fuzzifying structures

Y. Zhong; A. Sostak

Volume 18, Issue 6 , November and December 2021, Pages 55-66

Abstract
  In this paper, a new definition of a fuzzy $k$-pseudo metric is introduced and its induced fuzzifying structures are constructed, such as a fuzzifying neighborhood system, a fuzzifying topology, a fuzzifying closure operator, a fuzzifying uniformity.Besides, it is shown that there is a ...  Read More

Different classes ratio and Laplace summation operator based intuitionistic fuzzy rough attribute selection

S. Shreevastava; S. Singh; A. K. Tiwari; T. Som

Volume 18, Issue 6 , November and December 2021, Pages 67-82

Abstract
  In real-world data deluge, due to insignificant information and high dimension, irrelevant and redundant attributes reduce the ability of experts both in predictive accuracy and speed, respectively. Attribute selection is the notion of selecting those attributes that are essential as well as enough to ...  Read More

A fuzzy approach to review-based recommendation: Design and optimization of a fuzzy classification scheme based on implicit features of textual reviews

S. Hasanzadeh; S. M. Fakhrahmad; M. Taheri

Volume 18, Issue 6 , November and December 2021, Pages 83-99

Abstract
  In the design of recommender systems, it is believed that the set of reviews written by a user can somehow reveal his/her interests, and the content of an item can also be implied from its corresponding reviews. The present study attempts to model both the users and the items via extracting key information ...  Read More

Design and analysis of acceptance sampling plans based on intuitionistic fuzzy linguistic terms

G. Isik; I. Kaya

Volume 18, Issue 6 , November and December 2021, Pages 101-118

Abstract
  Acceptance sampling plans (ASPs) offer inspection of a small set of items from a lot within a predefined plan to procure a certain output quality level with minimum cost in terms of time, effort, and damage to the inspected items. Although traditional ASPs use crisp plan parameters, quality characteristics ...  Read More

A normalized distribution mechanism under multi-criteria situations and fuzzy behavior

Y. H. Liao

Volume 18, Issue 6 , November and December 2021, Pages 119-131

Abstract
  In general, agents always face an increasing need to focus on multiple aims efficiently under their operational processes. However, agents might take different activity levels to participate and might represent administrative areas of different scales. Therefore, this paper proposes a normalized index ...  Read More

A novel fuzzy sliding mode control approach for chaotic systems

R. Khalili Amirabadi; O. S. Fard; A. Mansoori

Volume 18, Issue 6 , November and December 2021, Pages 133-150

Abstract
  The purpose of this paper is to study the stabilization problem for a class of uncertain chaotic systems against unknown dynamics and disturbances, based on fuzzy sliding mode controller approaches. To fulfill this aim, the first- and the second-orders sliding mode controllers and an adaptive variable ...  Read More

Interval discrete fractional calculus and its application to interval fractional difference equations

Volume 18, Issue 6 , November and December 2021, Pages 151-166

Abstract
  In this work, we present some useful results of discrete fractional calculus for \ivf s. The composition rules for interval fractional operators are introduced, which are used to construct the general form of the solutions to nonlinear interval fractional difference equations. An illustrative example ...  Read More

Y. Liu; W. X. Diao; J. Yang; J. H. Yi

Volume 18, Issue 6 , November and December 2021, Pages 167-183

Abstract
  People's demand for the decision-making space of opinion expression is getting higher, and the methods to determine the threshold value of current consensus still remain elusive. To deal with large and diverse information of users and discuss deeply the threshold in social networks, we establish a new ...  Read More
