The proposed entropy measure is also proved to satisfy all of the constructive principles. Further, a novel concept of the type-2 triangular in- tuitionistic trapezoidal fuzzy set (T2TITrFS) is developed, and a geometric interpretation of the T2TITrFS is given to comprehend it completely or correctly in a more intuitive way. To deal with a more general uncertain complex system, the constructive principles of an entropy measure of T2TITrFS are therefore proposed on the basis of the axiomatic definition of the type-2 intuitionisic fuzzy entropy measure. This paper elicits a formula of type-2 triangular intuitionistic trapezoidal fuzzy entropy and verifies that it does sa- tisfy the constructive principles. Two examples are given to show the efficiency of the proposed entropy of T2TITrFS in describing the uncertainty of the type-2 intuitionistic fuzzy information and illustrate its application in type-2 triangular intuitionistic trapezodial fuzzy decision making problems.展开更多

The effects of the inclination angle and geometry structure were considered in the proposed model.Maximum heat transfer capacity was also investigated experimentally. The model was validated by comparing with the experimental results. The maximum heat transfer capacity increases with the vapor core radius increasing. Compared with the inclination angle of0°, the maximum heat transfer capacity increases at the larger inclination angle, and the change with temperature is larger. The performance of heat pipe with triangular grooved wick is greatly influenced by gravity, so it is not recommended to be applied to the dish solar heat pipe receiver.展开更多

DE algorithms usually require enormous computing power. A fast DE algorithm based on Delaunay triangulation (DT) is proposed. First, a flexible and content adaptive DT mesh is established on a target frame by an iterative split-merge algorithm. Second, DE on DT nodes are performed in a three-stage algorithm, which gives the majority of nodes a good estimate of the disparity vectors (DV), by removing unreliable nodes due to occlusion, and forcing the minority of 'problematic nodes' to be searched again, within their umbrella-shaped polygon, to the best. Finally, the target view is predicted by using affine transformation. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can give a satisfactory DE with less computational cost.展开更多
