This paper provides a survey of the application of fuzzy set theory in production management research, and identifies selected bibliographies on fuzzy sets and applications.
Abstract
Fuzzy set theory has been used to model systems that are hard to define precisely. As a methodology, fuzzy set theory incorporates imprecision and subjectivity into the model formulation and solution process. Fuzzy set theory represents an attractive tool to aid research in production management when the dynamics of the production environment limit the specification of model objectives, constraints and the precise measurement of model parameters. This paper provides a survey of the application of fuzzy set theory in production management research. The literature review that we compiled consists of 73 journal articles and nine books. A classification scheme for fuzzy applications in production management research is defined. We also identify selected bibliographies on fuzzy sets and applications.

Improving weather radar precipitation maps: A fuzzy logic approach

TL;DR: This work adopts an alternative to radar adjustment by merging location-based variables with rain grids from weather radar to produce an altered precipitation distribution, which shows up to 30% higher correlation coefficients between gauges and the JMF grid than between gauGES and the original radar.
