A subjective approach for ranking fuzzy numbers. (English) Zbl 0672.90001

Summary: Starting from a subjective assignation of weights related to the relative importance of the different level sets, we define a new method of comparison of fuzzy numbers. This procedure is an extension of some well- known indices. Some properties of our index are studied in this paper, as well as its behaviour on several particular cases.
