APPLICATIONS OF FUZZY SETS
Introduction
Fuzzy Numbers
Application - Topology
REASON FOR FUZZY
Why we need fuzzy?
What is the purpose of fuzzy?
Classes
of objects with sharp boundaries
Example
If X = { a, b, c, d}
A={a,b} then the characteristics function of the set A is a function
A : X {0,1}
1, x A
A (x)
0, x A
FUZZY SET THEORY
A fuzzy set is defined by its ambiguous boundaries i.e.
there exists uncertainty about the location of the set
boundaries
“If X is a collection of objects” (named the universe of
discourse) “denoted generically by X, then a fuzzy set
A {( x, A ( x )) / x A X }
where is called membership function or
degree ofAmembership
: X [0,1] (also, degree of compatibility or
degree of truth). of x in A”
INTRODUCTION
Support of fuzzy set
S( A) {x / A(x) 0}
α – cut set
A {x/ A(x) }
Height of fuzzy set
Maximum value of the membership function
Normalized fuzzy set
A fuzzy
set whose height is 1 or the maximum value of
membership function is 1
EXAMPLE OF FUZZY SETS
X = Ages= { 5,15,25,35,45,55,65,75,85}
Define fuzzy sets
Ā=Infant and its membership function A ( x)
B=young and B ( x )
C=Adult and C (x)
D=senior and D ( x)
EXAMPLE
AGE INFANT YOUNG ADULT SENIOR
5 0 0 0 0
15 0 0.2 0 0
25 0 0.8 0.6 0
35 0 1 0.8 0
45 0 0.6 0.9 0
55 0 0.5 1 0.5
65 0 0.1 1 0.9
75 0 0 1 1
85 0 0 1 1
EXAMPLE
Fuzzy set young
{(5,0). (15,0.2),(25,0.9),….(85,0)}
Support of young
{15,25,35,45,55,65}

STANDARD OPERATION OF FUZZY SET

APPLICATIONS - OPTIMIZATION
TECHNIQUES
A company is involved in the production of two items (X and
Y). The resources need to produce X and Y are twofold,
namely machine time for automatic processing and craftsman
time for hand finishing. The table below gives the number of
minutes required for each item:
Item Machine time Craftsman time
X 13 20
Y 19 29
The company has 40 hours of machine time available in the
next working week but only 35 hours of craftsman time. The
revenue received for each item produced (all production is
sold) is £20 for X and £30 for Y. The company has a specific
contract to produce 10 items of X per week for a particular
customer.

FUZZY LINEAR PROGRAMING
If the revenue in the above problem is nearly Rs.20, and
nearly Rs.30.
Then the problem becomes a fuzzy LPP

APPLICATION
Topology
Let X be a set. A topology on X is a collection of
( X )
subsets X satisfying the following conditions
T contains empty set and X
T is closed under arbitrary unions
Topological space
(X, T) is called the topological space.

Φ and X belongs to T
If A and B belongs to T, then A∩B belongs to T
Ai for each i I , then A i
