Download or read book Fuzzy Rationality written by Kofi Kissi Dompere and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-03-20 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philosophy involves a criticism of scientific knowledge, not from a point of view ultimately different from that of science, but from a point of view less concerned with details and more concerned with the h- mony of the body of special sciences. Here as elsewhere, while the older logic shut out possibilities and imprisoned imagination within the walls of the familiar, the newer logic shows rather what may happen, and refuses to decide as to what must happen. Bertrand Russell At any particular stage in the development of humanity knowledge comes up against limits set by the necessarily limited character of the experience available and the existing means of obtaining knowledge. But humanity advances by overcoming such limits. New experience throws down the limits of old experience; new techniques, new means of obtaining knowledge throw down the limits of old techniques and old means of obtaining knowledge. New limits then once again appear. But there is no more reason to suppose these new limits absolute and final than there was to suppose the old ones absolute and final.

Book Soft Computing Approach for Mathematical Modeling of Engineering Problems

Download or read book Soft Computing Approach for Mathematical Modeling of Engineering Problems written by Ali Ahmadian and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2021-09-02 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes different mathematical modeling and soft computing techniques used to solve practical engineering problems. It gives an overview of the current state of soft computing techniques and describes the advantages and disadvantages of soft computing compared to traditional hard computing techniques. Through examples and case studies, the editors demonstrate and describe how problems with inherent uncertainty can be addressed and eventually solved through the aid of numerical models and methods. The chapters address several applications and examples in bioengineering science, drug delivery, solving inventory issues, Industry 4.0, augmented reality and weather forecasting. Other examples include solving fuzzy-shortest-path problems by introducing a new distance and ranking functions. Because, in practice, problems arise with uncertain data and most of them cannot be solved exactly and easily, the main objective is to develop models that deliver solutions with the aid of numerical methods. This is the reason behind investigating soft numerical computing in dynamic systems. Having this in mind, the authors and editors have considered error of approximation and have discussed several common types of errors and their propagations. Moreover, they have explained the numerical methods, along with convergence and consistence properties and characteristics, as the main objectives behind this book involve considering, discussing and proving related theorems within the setting of soft computing. This book examines dynamic models, and how time is fundamental to the structure of the model and data as well as the understanding of how a process unfolds • Discusses mathematical modeling with soft computing and the implementations of uncertain mathematical models • Examines how uncertain dynamic systems models include uncertain state, uncertain state space and uncertain state’s transition functions • Assists readers to become familiar with many soft numerical methods to simulate the solution function’s behavior This book is intended for system specialists who are interested in dynamic systems that operate at different time scales. The book can be used by engineering students, researchers and professionals in control and finite element fields as well as all engineering, applied mathematics, economics and computer science interested in dynamic and uncertain systems. Ali Ahmadian is a Senior Lecturer at the Institute of IR 4.0, The National University of Malaysia. Soheil Salahshour is an associate professor at Bahcesehir University.

Book Fuzzy Mathematical Models in Engineering and Management Science

Download or read book Fuzzy Mathematical Models in Engineering and Management Science written by Arnold Kaufmann and published by North Holland. This book was released on 1988 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is by two of the leading researchers in the field of fuzzy set theory and fuzzy logic. It deals with the notions of fuzzy numbers with levels of perception and levels of presumption. Many new results, examples and novel applications in engineering and management science are presented. This approach makes the book interesting and easy to understand, and provides mathematical tools which readers may find useful in the study of their own problems. Of particular interest are the discussions of applications in areas employing zero-based budgeting, the Delphi method, critical path optimization, reliability modelling, filtering and transportation. The first section is devoted to the theoretical basis for these mathematical models. The second part deals with a variety of applications in engineering and management science. There are also seven appendices which contain some special mathematical operations (Minkowaski's operations) on fuzzy quantities and detailed biographical material.

Book Decision Making Based on Valued Fuzzy Superhypergraphs

Download or read book Decision Making Based on Valued Fuzzy Superhypergraphs written by Mohammad Hamidi and published by Infinite Study. This book was released on 2023-01-01 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper explores the defects in fuzzy (hyper) graphs (as complex (hyper) networks) and extends the fuzzy (hyper) graphs to fuzzy (quasi) superhypergraphs as a new concept.We have modeled the fuzzy superhypergraphs as complex superhypernetworks in order to make a relation between labeled objects in the form of details and generalities. Indeed, the structure of fuzzy (quasi) superhypergraphs collects groups of labeled objects and analyzes them in the form of the part to part of objects, the part of objects to the whole group of objects, and the whole to the whole group of objects at the same time. We have investigated the properties of fuzzy (quasi) superhypergraphs based on any positive real number as valued fuzzy (quasi) superhypergraphs, considering the complement of valued fuzzy (quasi) superhypergraphs, the notation of isomorphism of valued fuzzy (quasi) superhypergraphs based on the permutations, and we have presented the isomorphic conditions of (self complemented) valued fuzzy (quasi) superhypergraphs. The concept of impact membership value of fuzzy (quasi) superhypergraphs is introduced in this study and it is applied in designing the real problem in the real world. Finally, the problem of business superhypernetworks is presented as an application of fuzzy valued quasi superhypergraphs in the real world.
