A centroid-based approach for solving linear programming problems with Interval Type-2 Fuzzy technological coefficients

This paper presents a proposal for solving linear programming problems whose technological parameters are defined by multiple experts using Interval Type-2 Fuzzy numbers. To reduce the complexity of solving this kind of problems, we propose to use the centroids of the technological parameters and then solve the resultant interval optimization problem. We also compare the results of our proposal to some previous results to see how different/similar both are.
