Abstract :
This paper introduces new operations on fuzzy numbers and intervals. These operations allow keeping the shape of a membership function intact and constructing complex linguistic terms corresponding to such linguistic hedges as “very” and “more or less”. The article contains mathematical equations which allow us to determine the characteristic points of operation results for particular types of membership functions without integral evaluation.
