TL;DR: A new method of finding the fuzzy weights in fuzzy hierarchical analysis which is the direct fuzzification of the original method used by Saaty (1980) in the analytic hierarchy process is presented.
Abstract: We present a new method of finding the fuzzy weights in fuzzy hierarchical analysis which is the direct fuzzification of the original method used by Saaty (1980) in the analytic hierarchy process. We test our new procedure in two cases where there are formulas for the crisp weights. An example is presented where there are five criteria and three alternatives.

TL;DR: The Stone-Weierstrass theorem is used to prove that fuzzy systems with product inference, centroid defuzzification, and a Gaussian membership function are capable of approximating any real continuous function on a compact set to arbitrary accuracy.
Abstract: The author proves that fuzzy systems are universal approximators. The Stone-Weierstrass theorem is used to prove that fuzzy systems with product inference, centroid defuzzification, and a Gaussian membership function are capable of approximating any real continuous function on a compact set to arbitrary accuracy. This result can be viewed as an existence theorem of an optimal fuzzy system for a wide variety of problems. >

TL;DR: The hesitant fuzzy sets as mentioned in this paper are a generalization of fuzzy sets where the membership is an interval, instead of being a single value, and they have been used in decision making.
Abstract: Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets (IFS) are a generalization of fuzzy sets where the membership is an interval. That is, membership, instead of being a single value, is an interval. A large number of operations have been defined for this type of fuzzy sets, and several applications have been developed in the last years. In this paper we describe hesitant fuzzy sets. They are another generalization of fuzzy sets. Although similar in intention to IFS, some basic differences on their interpretation and on their operators exist. In this paper we review their definition, the main results and we present an extension principle, which permits to generalize existing operations on fuzzy sets to this new type of fuzzy sets. We also discuss their use in decision making.

TL;DR: A model-based fuzzy controller design utilizing the concept of so-called "parallel distributed compensation" is employed and the method is illustrated by application to the problem of balancing an inverted pendulum on a cart.
Abstract: We present a design methodology for stabilization of a class of nonlinear systems. First, we approximate a nonlinear plant with a Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy model. Then a model-based fuzzy controller design utilizing the concept of so-called "parallel distributed compensation" is employed. The design procedure is conceptually simple and straightforward. The method is illustrated by application to the problem of balancing an inverted pendulum on a cart. >

TL;DR: A robust fuzzy logic system is introduced, one that can handle rule uncertainties and make use of type-2 fuzzy sets for this purpose, and a new operation that is called type-reduction is introduced.
Abstract: This paper introduces a robust fuzzy logic system, one that can handle rule uncertainties. We make use of type-2 fuzzy sets for this purpose. The development of a type-2 fuzzy logic system has led to a new operation that we call type-reduction. In the course of this development, we also study set operations on type-2 sets, properties of membership grades of type-2 sets, type-2 relations and their compositions, and defuzzification.
