On Soft Lattice Topological Spaces

Pai, Sandhya S.; Baiju, T.

2021 Fuzzy Information and Engineering

doi: 10.1080/16168658.2021.1929744

In this paper, we introduce Soft Lattice topological spaces which are defined over a soft lattice L with a fixed set of parameter P and it is also a generalisation of soft topological spaces. The notion of soft L-open sets, soft L-closed sets, soft L-closure, soft L-interior point and soft L-neighbourhood are introduced. Further some basic properties of Soft L-Topology are also investigated.

Stability Analysis for the Discrete-Time T-S Fuzzy System with Stochastic Disturbance and State Delay

Luo, Honglin; Yu, Li

doi: 10.1080/16168658.2021.1932151

In this paper, we study the stability for discrete-time Takagi and Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy systems with perturbation disturbance and time delay. Stochastic delay-dependent stability criteria are derived for stochastic T-S fuzzy systems with time-invariant and time-varying delays, respectively. For the time-varying delay case, a novel fuzzy Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional (LKF) without requiring all the involved symmetric matrices to be positive definite is constructed to reduce the conservatism. These stability conditions are then represented in terms of finite linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), which can be solved efficiently by using standard LMIS optimisation techniques. Two numerical examples are given to illustrate the feasibility of the proposed method.

A Profit Maximisation Solid Transportation Problem Using Genetic Algorithm in Fuzzy Environment

Samanta, S.; Ojha, A.; Das, B.; Mondal, S. K.

In this paper, a solid transportation problem has been considered in which the transportation is accomplished in two stages – firstly, from the origin(s) to the near by station(s) of the destination(s) and secondly, from the near by station(s) to the exact destination(s). Here, a fuzzy AUD (all unit discount) policy has been introduced based upon the amount of transportation along with a fuzzy fixed charge. In addition, a budget constraint has been incorporated taking fuzzy unit transportation cost. Then the proposed model has been converted into a single objective optimisation problem using interval arithmetic method. To solve the model, Genetic Algorithm (GA) has been used depending on roulette wheel selection, crossover and mutation. Finally, a numerical example has been illustrated to study the feasibility of the model.

The Fuzzy Arithmetic Operations of Transmission Average on Pseudo-Hexagonal Fuzzy Numbers and Its Application in Fuzzy System Reliability Analysis

In most natural science fields, triangular and trapezoidal fuzzy numbers are commonly used while in engineering and social science fields such as sociology and psychology while treating the uncertainties these numbers are not applicable and fuzzy numbers with more parameters and clear definitions of their arithmetic operations are needed. In order to fill this gap in the literature, we propose the new fuzzy arithmetic operations based on transmission average on pseudo-hexagonal fuzzy numbers, which was already implied in [1] in its rudimentary form and was finally presented in its fully fledged form in [2]. Several illustrative examples were given to show the accomplishment and ability of the proposed method. We present a new method for fuzzy system reliability analysis based on the fuzzy arithmetic operations of transmission average, where the reliabilities of the components of a system are represented by pseudo- hexagonal fuzzy numbers defined in the universe of discourse [0, 1]. The proposed method has the advantages of modeling and analyzing fuzzy system reliability in a more flexible and more intelligent manner. Finally, a marine power plant is considered in fuzzy environment. The reliability of components of the proposed model is considered as pseudo-hexagonal fuzzy numbers.

Characterisation of p-ideals in Hemirings on the Basis of Hemiregularity, Prime and Normal Fuzzy Ideals

In p-hemiregular hemirings, some properties of ‘prime fuzzy p-ideals’ are examined. In the case of fuzzy p-ideal, p-hemiregular hemiring is also characterised. It is showed that in the case of hemiring , fuzzy subset φ is a ‘prime fuzzy left p-ideal’ in if and only if φ is having two values, set having all values of in so that φ(p) equals to one is a ‘prime left(right) p-ideal’ in , φ(0) = 1. In hemirings for ‘maximal fuzzy left(right) p-ideals’, some related properties are also studied.

A New Order Function for Interval-Valued Intuitionistic Fuzzy Numbers and Its Application in Group Decision Making

Kumar, Sandeep; Rani, Shalu; Kumar, Mohit

2021 Fuzzy Information and Engineering

doi: 10.1080/16168658.2021.1936961

Purpose: We introduce a multiple attribute group decision making (MAGDM) method under interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy (IVIF) domain. In these MAGDM problems, attribute values and attribute weights are represented in terms of IVIF sets (IVIFSs). Methodology: The present methodology is divided into two parts. Firstly, an appropriate order function has been developed for IVIFSs. Secondly, an algorithm has been proposed for solving the MAGDM problems with IVIF decision information. Findings: To show the effectiveness of the proposed method, a theoretical comparative study with respect to some existing literature is provided. A real-life based numerical example is given to demonstrate the proposed solution procedure. The advantage of this method is also described. Values: Using proposed order function, interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy hybrid geometric and ordered weighted averaging operators, the present method provides a most preferred alternative in six steps. On the basis of a comparative study, it can be observed that the present method simple and easy to implement for solving the IVIF MAGDM model occurrence in real-life decision making problems.

Total and Secure Domination for Corona Product of Two Fuzzy Soft Graphs

Karbasioun, Asefeh; Ameri, Reza

Fuzzy sets and soft sets are two different soft computing models for representing vagueness and uncertainty. On the other domination is a rapidly developing area of research in graph theory, and its various applications to ad hoc networks, distributed computing, social networks and web graphs partly explain the increased interest. This concept was introduced by [Benecke S, Cockayne EJ, Mynhardt CM. Secure total domination in graphs. Util Math. 2007;74:247–259.] in 2007 and Go and Canoy continue the study of these notions [Canoy RS, Go CE. Domination in the corona and join of graphs. Int Math Forum. 2011;6(16):763–771.] and afterward introduce total dominating and secure total dominating sets. Also graph operations like corona product play a very important role in mathematical chemistry, since some chemically interesting graphs can be obtained from some simpler graphs by different graph operations. In this paper, we characterised the dominating, total dominating, and secure total dominating sets in the corona of two fuzzy soft connected.
