Abstract

In real world, many decisions are made at any given moment, usually with uncertainty. Although there are many ways and tools to overcome these uncertainties, a powerful tool can be Z-numbers. In this study, inspiring Otadi-Mosleh and Big-M method, an extended model is proposed to solve the Z-number matrix equation. Also, numerical examples are provided to show the performance of this model.
