Direct Methods for Singular Fuzzy Linear Systems Using Generalized Inverses and Its Applications

Fuzzy matrices provide an effective framework for modeling uncertainty in scientific and engineering problems, particularly fuzzy linear systems.

This work transforms a general FLS into a crisp linear system using an embedding approach and reduces it to a standard block structured form via column operations.

A direct LU decomposition is developed under suitable range conditions, enabling the computation of minimum norm solutions of rectangular FLS using the generalized inverses.

A full rank decomposition is further proposed to compute the Moore Penrose inverse for arbitrary rectangular matrices, and consistency conditions for these inverses are established.

A unified framework for obtaining strong fuzzy solutions based on monotonicity and non-negativity constraints are presented.

Efficient algorithms based on LU, QR, and SVD decompositions are developed for the block structured matrix.

The applicability and computational efficiency of the proposed methods are demonstrated through fuzzy circuit equations and Markov chain processes.
