The revised method of ranking fuzzy numbers with an area between the centroid and original points
In 2002, Chu and Tsao proposed a method to rank fuzzy numbers. They employed an area between the centroid and original points to rank fuzzy numbers; however there were some problems with the ranking method. In this paper, we want to indicate these problems of Chu and Tsaos method, and then propose a revised method which can avoid these problems for ranking fuzzy numbers. Since the revised method is based on the Chu and Tsaos method, it is easy to rank fuzzy numbers in a way similar to the original method.
