New Concepts in the Vague Graph Structure with an Application in Transportation by Xiaolong Shi, Saeed Kosari

“…Fuzzy graph (FG) models take on the presence being ubiquitous in environmental and fabricated structures by humans, specifically the vibrant processes in physical, biological, and social systems. Owing to the unpredictable and indiscriminate data which are intrinsic in real life and problems being often ambiguous, it is very challenging for an expert to exemplify these problems through applying an FG. …”
