Alternative views on fuzzy numbers and their application to fuzzy differential equations

We consider fuzzy valued functions from two parametric representations of $\alpha$-level sets. New concepts are introduced and compared with available notions. Following the two proposed approaches, we study fuzzy differential equations. Their relation with Zadeh's extension principle and the generalized Hukuhara derivative is discussed. Moreover, we prove existence and uniqueness theorems for fuzzy differential equations. Illustrative examples are given.

A shape preserving quasi-interpolation operator based on a new transcendental RBF

It is well-known that the univariate Multiquadric quasi-interpolation operator is constructed based on the piecewise linear interpolation by |x|. In this paper, we first introduce a new transcendental RBF based on the hyperbolic tangent function as a smooth approximant to f(r)=r with higher accuracy and better convergence properties than the multiquadric. Then Wu-Schaback's quasi-interpolation formula is rewritten using the proposed RBF. It preserves convexity and monotonicity. We prove that the proposed scheme converges with a rate of O(h^2). So it has a higher degree of smoothness. Some numerical experiments are given in order to demonstrate the efficiency and accuracy of the method.
