Abstract
Fuzzy linear regression models can provide an estimated fuzzy number that has a fuzzy membership function. If a point that has the highest membership value from the estimated fuzzy number is not within the support of the observed fuzzy membership function, a decision-maker can have high risk from the estimate. In this study a modification of fuzzy linear regression analysis based on a criterion of minimizing the difference of the fuzzy membership values between the observed and estimated fuzzy numbers is proposed. Two numerical examples are used to evaluate the fuzzy regression models.
