Abstract
The novelty of the type-2 fuzzy variable (T2FV) is its fuzzy secondary possibility distribution. Here, we aim to formulate a new defuzzification model of triangular type-2 fuzzy variables (TT2FVs) based on type reduction. We also show its superiority compared to other existing models by providing some numerical examples. Later, we develop a matrix game problem in the type-2 fuzzy environment to show the applicability of the proposed defuzzification method in a real-world situation. Based on this defuzzification method, two crisp linear programming models are derived, which are subsequently solved by the simplex method using LINGO 17.0 software. Also, the expected pay-off for the maximizing player is calculated as TT2FV, which is desirable. Finally, to show the validity and applicability, the proposed methodology is illustrated with the plastic ban problem.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
