Abstract

This paper presents a generalization of the extension principle for fuzzy numbers. The minimum is substituted by a general binary aggregation function. It is used to extend the usual metric for real numbers to fuzzy numbers, generating a new family of fuzzy-valued distances between fuzzy numbers. Then, some conditions on these aggregation functions are studied to hold the fuzzy number properties of the generated distances.
