Abstract

Unbounded fuzzy sets (in particular fuzzy numbers) are popular in different applications, but the implementation of a unbounded support is inconvenient since it is hard to do. This chapter presents a method for truncating a unbounded fuzzy number based on$$\alpha $$ -levels and a method to re-scale it in order to obtain a closed support fuzzy set i.e. bounded. An application to compute a nonlinear equation is presented and the proposed method is tested over different fuzzy sets in order to see its properties.
