A Modified Method to Measure Similarity of Generalized Fuzzy Numbers

Article Preview

Abstract:

A modified method to measure the similarity between the generalized fuzzy numbers based on Wasserstein distance is proposed. The method is more fully considered the difference of the generalized fuzzy numbers, especially the shape difference, by Wasserstein distance. The results of comparing the eighteen sets of generalized fuzzy numbers show that the method can overcome the drawbacks of the existing methods, and calculate the similarity measure excellently.
