3. 4.1 Fuzzy Numbers
• Set A : R [0,1]
• To qualify as fuzzy number, a fuzzy set A on R must have following
properties:
1. Set A must be Normal Fuzzy set;
2. α-cut of A must be closed interval for every α in (0,1];
3. Support and strong α-cut of A must be bounded.
Every Fuzzy number is a Convex fuzzy set, The Inverse is not
necessarily true.

Real number Fuzzy number/interval

4.1 Fuzzy Numbers
5. 4.2 Linguistic Variables
• It is fully described by name of the variable, linguistic values,
base variable range, various rules.
• A numerical variables takes numerical values: Age = 65
• A linguistic variables takes linguistic values: Age is old
• All such linguistic values set is a fuzzy set.

7. • Appearance = {beautiful, pretty, cute, handsome, attractive, not
beautiful, very pretty, very very handsome, more or less pretty,
quite pretty, quite handsome, fairly handsome, not very attractive..}
• Truth = {true, not true, very true, completely true, more or less
true, fairly true, essentially true, false, very false...}
• Age = {young, not young, very young, middle aged, not middle
aged, old, not old, very old, more or less old, not very young and
not very old...}

8. 4.3 Arithmetic Operations On Intervals
• Fuzzy arithmetic is based on two properties :
– Each fuzzy set and thus each fuzzy number is uniquely be
represented by its α-cuts;
– α-cut of A must be closed intervals of real numbers for all
α in (0,1].
Using above properties we define arithmetic operations
on fuzzy numbers in terms of arithmetic operations on
their α cuts.
Later operations are subject to interval analysis

9. • [a, b]*[d, e]={f*g|a ≤ f ≤ b, d ≤ g ≤ e}
1. Addition
[a, b]+[d, e]=[a+d, b+e];
2. Subtraction
[a, b]-[d, e]=[a-e, b-d];
3.Multiplication
[a, b].[d, e]=[min(ad,ae,bd,be), max(ad,ae,bd,be)];
4. Division*
[a, b]/[d, e]=[a, b].[1/e, 1/d]
=[min(a/d,a/e,b/d,b/e), max(a/d,a/e,b/d,b/e)].
5. Inverse Interval*
[d,e] inverse =[min(1/d,1/e),max(1/d,1/e)]
* 0 ∉ [d,e] i.e excluding the case d=0 or e=0. 9
4.3 Arithmetic Operations On Intervals
Let * denotes any of the four arithmetic operations on
closed intervals :
14. Properties:
1. Commutativity (+, .) A*B = B*A
2. Associativity (+, .) (A*B)*C = A*(B*C)
3. Identity A = 0+A = A+0 , A = 1.A = A.1
4. Distributivity A.(B+C) = A.B+A.C
5. Subdistributivity A.(B+C)⊆ A.B+A.C
6. Inclusion monotonicity (all). If A ⊆ E & B⊆ F then A*B ⊆ E*F
7. 0, 1 are included in -,/ operations between same fuzzy
intervals respectively. 0 ∈ A-A and 1 ∈ A/A

useful properties :

Moving from intervals we can define arithmetic on fuzzy numbers
based on principles of Interval Arithmetic
Let A and B denote fuzzy numbers and let * denote any of the four
basic arithmetic operations. Then, we define a fuzzy set on R, A*B, by
defining its alpha-cut as:
