Addition of two LR fuzzy numbers

Description

This function calculates the addition (summation) of two LR fuzzy numbers M=(m, \alpha, \beta)_{LR} and N=(n, \delta, \gamma)_{LR} on the basis of Zadeh extension principle by the following formula:

M \oplus N = (m+n, \alpha+\delta, \beta+\gamma)_{LR}

Usage

a(M, N)

Arguments

M

The first LR (or RL or L) fuzzy number

N

The second LR (or RL or L) fuzzy number

Value

A LR (or RL or L) fuzzy number

Author(s)

Examples

# Example 1:
Left.fun  = function(x)  { (1/(1+x^2))*(x>=0)}
Right.fun = function(x)  { (1/(1+(2*abs(x))))*(x>=0)}
M = LR(1, 0.6, 0.2)
N = LR(3, 0.5, 1)
a(N, M)

# commutative property for addition on LR fuzzy numbers (Jabejaei)
P = RL(5, 0.1, 0.3)
a(N, P)
a(P, P)

# associative property for addition on LR fuzzy numbers (Sherekat-paziri)
a(N, a(M, M))
a(a(N, M), M)

# Example 2:
A = LR(2, 1, 3)
B = LR(3, 1.2, 1.8)
LRFN.plot( A, xlim=c(-3,12), ylim=c(0,1.25), lwd=2, lty=2, col=2)
