Ranking of Fuzzy Numbers, Some Recent and New Formulas

Ranking of fuzzy numbers plays a very important role in linguistic decision making and some other fuzzy application sys- tems. Several strategies have been proposed for ranking of fuzzy numbers. Each of these techniques has been shown to produce non- intuitive results in certain cases. In this paper, some new approaches for ranking of trapezoidal fuzzy numbers are introduced. Keywords— Magnitude of fuzzy number, Parametric form of fuzzy number, Ranking of fuzzy numbers, Trapezoidal fuzzy num- ber.
