On the Classification and the Dependencies of the Ordering Methods

  • Chapter
Fuzzy Logic Foundations and Industrial Applications

Part of the book series: International Series in Intelligent Technologies ((ISIT,volume 8))

Abstract

In this paper, we classify all the approaches to order fuzzy quantities into three classes. Then we focus our attention on the investigation of dependency among the elements of the first class of ordering approaches.
