Fuzzy number intuitionistic fuzzy sets (FNIFSs), each of which is characterized by a membership function and a non-membership function whose values are trigonometric fuzzy number rather than exact numbers, are a very useful means to describe the decision information in the process of decision making. Wang [10] developed some arithmetic aggregation operators, such as the fuzzy number intuitionistic fuzzy weighted averaging (FIFWA) operator, the fuzzy number intuitionistic fuzzy ordered weighted averaging (FIFOWA) operator and the fuzzy number intuitionistic fuzzy hybrid aggregation (FIFHA) operator. In this paper, based on the FIFHA operator and the FIFWA operator, we investigate the group decision making problems in which all the information provided by the decision-makers is presented as fuzzy number intuitionistic fuzzy decision matrices where each of the elements is characterized by fuzzy number intuitionistic fuzzy numbers, and the information about attribute weights is partially known. An example is used to illustrate the applicability of the proposed approach.

In this paper, two different approaches to chromatic number of a bipolar fuzzy graph are introduced. The first approach is based on the α-cuts of a bipolar fuzzy graph and the second approach is based on the definition of Eslahchi and Onagh for chromatic number of a fuzzy graph. Finally, the bipolar fuzzy vertex chromatic number and the edge chromatic number of a complete bipolar fuzzy graph, characterized.

Fuzzy numbers represent fuzzy numeric values. However, it is difficult to clearly determine whether one fuzzy number is larger or smaller than other fuzzy numbers. Thus it is also difficult to determine the rank which a fuzzy number takes, or to select the k-th largest fuzzy number in a given set of fuzzy numbers. In this paper, we propose a fuzzy set based method to determine the rank of a fuzzy number and the k-th largest fuzzy number. The proposed method uses a given fuzzy greater-than relation which is defined on a set of fuzzy numbers. Our method describes the rank of a fuzzy number with a fuzzy set of ranks that the fuzzy number can take, and the k-th largest fuzzy number with a fuzzy set of fuzzy numbers which can be k-th ranked.

In this paper, we consider fuzzy number-valued functions and fuzzy number-valued Choquet integrals. And we also discuss positively homogeneous and monotonicity of Choquet integrals of fuzzy number-valued functions(simply, fuzzy number-valued Choquet integrals). Furthermore, we prove convergence theorems for fuzzy number-valued Choquet integrals.

We studied closed set-valued Choquet integrals in two papers(1997, 2000) and convergence theorems under some sufficient conditions in two papers(2003), for examples : (i) convergence theorems for monotone convergent sequences of Choquet integrably bounded closed set-valued functions, (ii) covergence theorems for the upper limit and the lower limit of a sequence of Choquet integrably bounded closed set-valued functions. In this presentation, we consider fuzzy number-valued functions and define Choquet integrals of fuzzy number-valued functions. But these concepts of fuzzy number-valued Choquet inetgrals are all based on the corresponding results of interval-valued Choquet integrals. We also discuss their properties which are positively homogeneous and monotonicity of fuzzy number-valued Choquet integrals. Furthermore, we will prove convergence theorems for fuzzy number-valued Choquet integrals. They will be used in the following applications : (1) Subjectively probability and expectation utility without additivity associated with fuzzy events as in Choquet integrable fuzzy number-valued functions, (2) Capacity measure which are presented by comonotonically additive fuzzy number-valued functionals, and (3) Ambiguity measure related with fuzzy number-valued fuzzy inference.

In this paper we introduce the integration of scalar valued functions with respect to a generalized fuzzy number measure which we call the generalized fuzzy number valued Bartle integral. We first establish some properties of the generalized fuzzy number measures and then study the generalized fuzzy number valued Bartle integrals.

In this paper, the concept of connected geodesic number, $gn_c(G)$, of a fuzzy graph G is introduced and its limiting bounds are identified. It is proved that all extreme nodes of G and all cut-nodes of the underlying crisp graph $G^*$ belong to every connected geodesic cover of G. The connected geodesic number of complete fuzzy graphs, fuzzy cycles, fuzzy trees and of complete bipartite fuzzy graphs are obtained. It is proved that for any pair k, n of integers with $3{\leq}k{\leq}n$, there exists a connected fuzzy graph G : (V, ${\sigma}$, ${\mu}$) on n nodes such that $gn_c(G)=k$. Also, for any positive integers $2{\leq}a<b{\leq}c$, it is proved that there exists a connected fuzzy graph G : (V, ${\sigma}$, ${\mu}$) such that the geodesic number gn(G) = a and the connected geodesic number $gn_c(G)=b$.

We study properties concerning approximation of fuzzy-number-valued functions by fuzzy B-spline series. Error bounds in approximation by fuzzy B-spine series are obtained in terms of the modulus of continuity. Particularly simple error bounds are obtained for fuzzy splines of Schoenberg type. We compare fuzzy B-spline series with existing fuzzy concepts of splines.

In this paper, we consider interval number-valued random variables and fuzzy number-valued random variables and discuss Choquet integrals of them. Using these properties, we define the Choquet expected value of fuzzy number-valued random variables which is a natural generalization of the Lebesgue expected value of Lebesgue expected value of fuzzy random variables. Furthermore, we discuss some application of them.

Many optimization problem or multiple attribute, multiple alternative decision making problem may have fuzzy evaluation factors. In this case, fuzzy number operation technique is needed to evaluate and compare object functions which become fuzzy sets. Generally, fuzzy number operations can be defined by extension principle of fuzzy set theory, but it is tedious to do fuzzy number operations by using extension principle when the membership functions are defined by complex functions. Many fast methods which approximate the membership functions such as triangle, trapezoidal, or L-R type functions are proposed. In this paper, a fast fuzzy number operation method is proposed which do not simplify the membership functions of fuzzy numbers.
