A procedure for ranking fuzzy numbers using fuzzy relations. (English) Zbl 0647.94026
This paper presents a method to give fuzzy order relations between fuzzy numbers. These are founded on the concept of ‘comparison function’ (defined in the paper), and the use of fuzzy measures related with the same numbers. The link of such relations with fuzzy operations is investigated too.
