Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The Special Issue, “Symmetry in Process Optimization”, aims to explore the pervasive role of symmetry principles in advancing optimization techniques across diverse scientific domains. With a focus on the integration of machine learning and optimization methodologies, this Special Issue seeks to elucidate how symmetry considerations can enhance algorithmic efficiency, model robustness, and solution quality in various application areas. By fostering interdisciplinary dialogue, this collection will illuminate novel approaches for tackling complex optimization problems in fields such as engineering, physics, chemistry, biology, and beyond. Through theoretical analyses, algorithm development, and real-world case studies, this issue aims to showcase the transformative potential of symmetry-aware optimization techniques in addressing contemporary scientific challenges.

Abstract
The current study delves into a fuzzy matrix decision-making problem involving fuzzy sets of states. It establishes that a maximum guaranteed payoff constitutes a type-2 fuzzy set defined on the real line. Additionally, it provides the associated type-2 membership function.

The current study delves into a fuzzy matrix decision-making problem involving fuzzy sets of states. It establishes that a maximum guaranteed payoff constitutes a type-2 fuzzy set defined on the real line. Additionally, it provides the associated type-2 membership function. Moreover, the paper illustrates that the maximum guaranteed payoff type-2 fuzzy set of the decision-making problem can be broken down, based on the secondary membership grades, into a finite collection of fuzzy numbers. Each of these fuzzy numbers represents the maximum guaranteed payoff of the corresponding decision-making problem with a crisp set of states. This set corresponds to a specific cut of the original fuzzy set of states. Some properties of the maximum guaranteed payoff type-2 fuzzy set are investigated, and illustrative examples are provided. Since the problem formulation is symmetrical with respect to alternatives and states of nature, the results obtained can be used in the case of a fuzzy set of alternatives. Full article
