MAKING DECISIONS BASED ON FUZZY SETS

1.     Fuzzy Sets

Let A - a lot. A subset B of A is characterized by its characteristic function.

 

                                                                                           

What is a fuzzy set? It is usually said that the fuzzy subset C of A is characterized by its membership function   The value of the membership function at x shows the degree of membership of the fuzzy set point. A fuzzy set describes the uncertainty corresponding to a point x - and at the same time it is and is not included in the fuzzy set C. For entry -   chances for a second -  a chance. If the membership function of the form    for some B, then C is the usual (strict) subset of A. Thus, the theory of fuzzy set is not less than the general mathematical discipline than the usual set theory, as usual set - a special case of fuzzy. Accordingly, it can be expected that the theory of vagueness as a whole generalizes the classical mathematics. However, later we will see that the theory of vagueness in some sense be reduced to the theory of random sets, and thus is a part of classical mathematics. In other words, the degree of commonality ordinary mathematics and fuzzy mathematics equivalent [1].  However, for the practical application of the theory of decision-making in the description and analysis of the uncertainties with the help of the theory of fuzzy sets is very fruitful. Standard subset could be identified with its characteristic function. That math does not do as for defining a function (in the current approach taken), you must first define a set. Fuzzy same subset from a formal point of view, can be identified with its membership function. To date, this theory published thousands of books and articles published by several international journals, made ​​a lot of both theoretical and applied work. La zadeh considered the theory of fuzzy sets as a tool for analyzing and modeling the humanistic systems, ie systems in which the person involved. His approach is based on the premise that the elements of human thinking are not numbers, and some elements of fuzzy sets or classes of objects for which the transition from the "accessories" to "not belonging" is not abrupt, but continuous. Currently used methods of the theory of vagueness in almost all application areas, including the management of the company, the quality of products and production processes. Là zadeh used the term "fuzzy set" (fuzzy set). In the Russian language the term "fuzzy" translated as fuzzy sets, fuzzy, and even as fluffy and foggy. Cumbersome apparatus of the theory of vagueness. As an example, we give definitions of set-theoretic operations on fuzzy sets. Let C and D-two fuzzy subsets of A with the membership functions, respectively - end . Intersection, the product CD, union, negation, the sum of C + D called fuzzy subsets of A with the membership functions

.

The theory of fuzzy sets in a sense, is reduced to the theory of probability, namely, the theory of random sets. The corresponding cycle theorems below. However, in solving applications of probabilistic and statistical methods, and methods of the theory of vagueness is usually considered to be distinct. In what follows we assume that all the above fuzzy sets are subsets of the same set Y.

2.     Example of uncertainty description using fuzzy set.

The notion of "rich" is often used when discussing the social and economic problems, including in connection with the preparation and decision-making. However, it is clear that different individuals are investing in this concept different content. Employees of the Institute of High-tech statistics and econometrics held in 1996 case study represent different segments of the population about the concept of "rich man."

3.     Fuzzy conclusions

In the expert and control systems for machinery fuzzy conclusions basically has the knowledge base formed by domain specialists in the form of a set of fuzzy predicate rules of the form:P1:

if x is A1 then y is B1,P2:

if x is A2, then y is B2,...Pn:

An are there if x, then y is Bn,

where x - input variable, y - the variable O, A and B - the membership functions defined by x and y, respectively.

Expert knowledge A → B reflects the fuzzy causal relationship premise and conclusion, so it is called a fuzzy relation:R = A → Bwhere «→» - fuzzy implication.
