In general, the certainty factors of the fuzzy production rules and the certainty factors of fuzzy Propositions appearing in the rules are represented by real values between zero and one. If it can allow the certainty factors of the fuzzy production rules and the certainty factors of fuzzy propositions to be represented by interval-valued fuzzy sets, then it can allow the reasoning of rule-based systems to perform fuzzy reasoning in more flexible manner(15). This paper presents a fuzzy Petri nets and proposes an interval-valued fuzzy reasoning algorithm for rule-based systems based on fuzzy Petri nets. Fuzzy Petri nets model the fuzzy production rules in the knowledge base of a rule-based system, where the certainty factors of the fuzzy Propositions appearing in the furry production rules and the certainty factors of the rules are represented by interval-valued fuzzy sets. The proposed interval-valued fuzzy set reasoning algorithm can allow the rule-based systems to perform fuzzy reasoning in a more flexible manner.

In conventional fault-tree analysis, the failure probabilities of components of a system are treated as exact values in estimating the failure probability of the top event. For the plant layout and systems of the products, however, it is often difficult to evaluate the failure probabilities of components from past occurences, because the environments of the systems change. Furthermore, it might be necessary to consider possible failure of components of the systems even if they have never failed before. In the paper, instead of the probability of failure, we propose the possibility of failure, viz, a fuzzy set defined in probability space. Thus, in this paper based on a fuzzy fault-tree model, the maximum possibility of system failure is determined from the possibility of failure of each component within the system according to the extension principle.

An assessment of risk in industrial and urban environments is essential in the prevention of accident and in the analysis of situations which are hazardous to public health and safety. The risk imposed by a particular hazard increases with the likelihood of occurence of the event, the exposure and the possible consequence of that event. In a traditional approach, the calculation of a quantitative value of risk is usually based on an assignment of numerical values of each of the risk factors. Then the product of the values of likelihood, exposure and consequences called risk score is derived. However vagueness and imprecision in mathematical quantification of risk are equated with fuzziness rather than randomness. In this paper, a fuzzy set theoretic approach to risk analysis is proposed as an alternative to the techniques currently used in the area of systems safety. Then the concept of risk evaluation using linguistic representation of the likelihood, exposure and consequences is introduced. A risk assessment model using approximate reasoning technique based on fuzzy logic is presented to drive fuzzy values of risk and numerical example for risk analysis is also presented to illustrate the results.

Even though the recent construction safety disasters not only result in the loss inside construction sites but also become to a large public disasters, safety activities are managed in an irrational way and safety rules are ignored in the construction sites which leads to occur same type of disasters repeatedly. In this paper, a fuzzy set theoretic approach to risk analysis is proposed as an alternative to the techniques currently used in the general construction projects safety. Then the concept of risk evaluation using linguistic representation of the likelihood, exposure and consequences is introduced. A risk assessment model using approximate reasoning technique base on fuzzy logic is presented to drive fuzzy values of risk and numerical example for risk analysis is also presented to illustrate the results.

This paper presents an approach to obtain a reduced neuro-fuzzy model for a plant. The Neuro-Fuzzy Network are compose of the Radial Basis Function Networks with Gausis membership and learned by using temporal back propagation. The dependency in rough set theory is used to eliminate rules. Dependency between the condition membership value of each rule in a model and the output of the plant can allow us to see how much contribution the rule is to identify the plant. While the reduced model maintains the same performance as the original one, the selection algorithm can minimize its complexity and redundancy of the structure.

The objective of this study is to develop an evaluation model for the National highway risky areas. Thus, for the purposes of doing this, National highway risky area evaluated targeting to provide determination ranking and suggesting rival-superiority factors as well as under-inferiority factors in ten National highway risky areas. This study developed for modules of risky areas evaluation, using fuzzy set theory and analytic hierarchy process for evaluation model of National highway risky area in transport environment. The preceding studies assess risk analysis through analysis of causal relationships by National highway safety sector not only handles rating scale development suitable for assessment area by referring to accident frequency model but also geometric structures model. As result of this study, this model of Fuzzy Ahp Risk Analysis (FARA) apply for programmable design in real time processing through easily derive strategy for improvement activities to provide a decision-making effectively. Furthermore, this study contributes frame for improvements of National highway construction for renovation's priority strategy as well as future's policy schemes.

Most of the real world phenomena change over time. The ability to represent and to reason geographic data becomes crucial. A large amount of non-standard applications are dealing with data characterized by spatial, temporal and/or uncertainty features. Non-standard data like spatial and temporal data have an inner complex structure requiring sophisticated data representation, and their operations necessitate sophisticated and efficient algorithms. Current GIS technology is inefficient to model and to handle complex geographic phenomena, which involve space, time and uncertainty dimensions. This paper concentrates on developing a fuzzy spatio-temporal data model based on fuzzy set theory and relational data models. Fuzzy spatio-temporal operators are also provided to support dynamic query.

In this paper we focused on the color representation prob1em based on fuzzy set theory. The main factor is the determination or computation of color membership function and color difference formula. The mathematical formula to calculate the color difference should generate a uniform color scaling, and due to this reason we adopted a CIELAB color- space as a fundamental feature space. With the help of the CIELAB color space we created a new color model, referred to fuzzy color model, which can represent the ambiguous characteristics underlying colors. Based on the proposed color difference formula between fuzzy colors, we could obtain the membership computation method of an arbitrary color for a given color family.

This paper discusses an on-line fuzzy dynamic model(FDM) identification of nonlinear processes for the design of fuzzy model based fault detection and isolation(FDI). The dynamic behavior of a nonlinear process is represented by a fuzzy aggregation of a set of local linear models. The identification is divided into two procedures. The first is the off-line identification of membership function. The second is the on-line identification of the local linear models. Then, we propose a residual generation scheme based on the parameters of local linear models and show that the scheme can be used for the design of FDI

This paper presents a Fuzzy Pertri Net(FPN)model, which can be used to verify the validity and effectiveness of nervous system bebaviors. The similarities and differences between communication network and neural network are analyzed with respect to the representation and verification of the system behaviors. For the effective representation for the ambiguities of nervous system we combein fuzzy set theory to the PetriNet, and then design a new model, FPN, Also show that FPN is superior to the multiplayer perceptron model using computer simulation.
