Leontief Model Analysis with Fuzzy Parameters by Basic Matrixes Method

The basic matrixes method is suggested for the Leontief model analysis (LM) with some of its components indistinctly given. LM can be construed as a forecast task of product’s expenses-output on the basis of the known statistic information at indistinctly given several elements’ meanings of technological matrix, restriction vector and variables’ limits. Elements of technological matrix, right parts of restriction vector LM can occur as functions of some arguments. In this case the task’s dynamic analog occurs. LM essential complication lies in inclusion of variables restriction and criterion function in it.

Uncertainty and Fuzzy Sets: Classifying the Situation

The so called “Plural Uncertainty Model” is considered, in which statistical, maxmin, interval and Fuzzy model of uncertainty are embedded. For the last case external and internal contradictions of the theory are investigated and the modified definition of the Fuzzy Sets is proposed to overcome the troubles of the classical variant of Fuzzy Subsets by L. Zadeh. The general variants of logit- and probit- regression are the model of the modified Fuzzy Sets. It is possible to say about observations within the modification of the theory. The conception of the “situation” is proposed within modified Fuzzy Theory and the classifying problem is considered. The algorithm of the classification for the situation is proposed being the analogue of the statistical MLM(maximum likelihood method). The example related possible observing the distribution from the collection of distribution is considered.

Fuzzy sets: Abstraction Axiom, Statistical Interpretation, Observations of Fuzzy Sets

The issues relating fuzzy sets definition are under consideration including the analogue for separation axiom, statistical interpretation and membership function representation by the conditional Probabilities.
