Abstract

Real data and measures are usually uncertain and cannot be satisfactorily described by accurate real numbers. The imprecision and vagueness should be modeled and represented in data using the concept of fuzzy numbers. Fuzzy splines are proposed as an integrated approach to uncertainty in mathematical interpolation models. In the context of surface modeling, fuzzy tensor product B é zier surfaces are suitable for representing and simplifying both crisp and imprecise surface data with fuzzy numbers. The framework of this research paper is concerned with various properties of fuzzy tensor product surface patches by means of fuzzy numbers including fuzzy parametric curves, affine invariance, fuzzy tangents, convex hull and fuzzy iso-parametric curves. The fuzzification and defuzzification processes are applied to obtain the crisp Beziér curves and surfaces from fuzzy data points. The degree elevation and de Casteljau’s algorithms for fuzzy B é zier curves and fuzzy tensor product B é zier surfaces are studied in detail with numerical examples.
