        <p>We consider the modeling of uncertainty, presented in the form of type-1 fuzzy sets and type2 fuzzy sets, 2D and 3D tensors, which allows the use of matrix-tensor algebra (in particular, Kronecker algebra) to solve decision-making problems under uncertainty along with standard fuzzy mathematics; it is shown that the tensor decompositions of the formed models allow obtaining the closest (in the sense of Frobenius norm) subsets of ordered pairs and sequences, which can be used with limited possibilities of assignment of membership functions or as an alternative to fuzzy sets in solving fuzzy equations and fuzzy systems. An important type of hidden knowledge is the ability to obtain the values of matrix (tensor) invariants, presented in trace form, which significantly affects the quality of decision making. Tensor models of fuzzy sets make it possible to expand the range of problems to be solved under conditions of uncertainty, in particular, the use of special matrices (tensors) - Toeplitz, Hankel, etc. allows to obtain for a given universal set an objective analog of a fuzzy set and to obtain a comparative assessment of the decision.

        <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref3">2</xref>
        ] because the membership function of the
type-2 FS itself is fuzzy and corresponds to the nature and characteristics of particular uncertainty.
      </p>
      <p>Although FST is currently the most common mathematical apparatus for solving uncertainty
problems (this applies to both type-1 FS and type-2 FS), there are virtually no convincing examples of
the effectiveness of type-2 FS compared to type-1 FS, recent studies have shown that in some cases the
standard FST does not allow to solve a number of problems under uncertainty. This is due to the
arithmetic and logical nature of FS, which does not allow the use of FS tensor-matrix analysis directly
and in full. This means, in particular, solutions of large fuzzy equations and systems of fuzzy equations,
where the parameters can be both type-1 FS and type-2 FS.</p>

        In [

        ] shows that fuzzy sets over the last fifty years have laid the foundation for a successful method
of modeling uncertainty and inaccuracy in a way that no other technique has. The use of fuzzy sets in
real computer systems is extremely wide and constantly increasing, which emphasizes the relevance of
research related to the discovery of hidden knowledge, which contains uncertainty and its fuzzy set
models, presented in tensor form. Note that tensors and tensor decompositions are very powerful and
versatile tools that can model a wide variety of inhomogeneous, multi-aspect data. As a result of tensor
decompositions, it is possible to extract useful hidden information from multi-aspect data tensors [
        <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref5">4</xref>
        ],
including from data under uncertainty.
      </p>
      <p>The object of research is the generalized processing of multidimensional (multi-aspects) and
largevolume data under conditions of uncertainty, which is modeled by fuzzy sets.</p>
      <p>The subject of research – tensor models of type-1 and type-2 fuzzy sets, hidden knowledge that can
be extracted, tensor decompositions and the formation of the nearest fuzzy sets, the solution of fuzzy
equations based on the concept of the nearest fuzzy sets.</p>
      <p>The purpose of the work is to expand the class of solvable problems under conditions of uncertainty

      <title>2.2 Main statement</title>
      <p>Recently, a number of uncertainty problems have emerged, the solution of which by TFS methods,
in particular, by fuzzy mathematics methods, is either extremely difficult or the result is not
constructive. This is especially true for data processing, which belongs to the category of BIG DATA,
where ultra-high dimensionality is combined with a large amount of data and thus necessitates working
with 3D data, membership functions for which are not tabulated, defining these functions is also
extremely difficult.</p>
      <p>Problems related to decision-making based on fuzzy equations and systems of fuzzy equations with
general data (the parameters of the equations can be set in the form of both type-1 FS and type-2 require
the use of new methods and algorithms. Note that modern methods focused on this class of problems,
usually work with fuzzy numbers and contain a large number of assumptions. On the basis of the stated
requirements, the tasks are formulated as follows: representation of type-1 FS in the form of a 2D

      <title>3. Review of the literature</title>
      <p>One of the directions of expanding the use of FS is granular computing, in [6] it was shown that
granular computing is a new computational theory and paradigm that deals with the processing of
information granules, which are defined as a set of information entities grouped together by their
similarity, physical adjacency or indistinguishable ability. In most aspects of human reasoning, these
granules have an uncertain formation, so the concept of detailing fuzzy information (and revealing
hidden information) may be of particular interest for applications where FSs must be converted to crisp
sets to avoid uncertainty.</p>
      <p>In [7] a tensor granule formed as a tensor product of FS components is proposed, which allows to
significantly expand the possibilities of FST and, accordingly, to expand the range of solvable problems
under conditions of uncertainty. According to [8], the theory of rough sets is an important approach to
granular calculations.</p>
      <p>Tensor models of type-1 and type-2 fuzzy sets (the concept of tensorization) not only significantly
strengthen the arsenal of methods of fuzzy mathematics but also be an additional channel for comparing
the quality of the obtained solutions. The concept of tensorization, as shown in [9], refers to procedures
for generating structured tensors of higher-order from lower-order data formats (vectors, matrices, or
even low-order tensors) or representing very large system parameters in low-order tensor formats.</p>
      <p>For any given source data format, the tensor procedure can affect the choice and efficiency of tensor
decomposition in the next step. Records of such a tensor can be obtained using:
 a certain permutation, for example, the transformation of the original data into a tensor,
 alignment of data blocks or epochs, for example, slices of the third-order tensor are epochs of
multichannel EEG signals, or
 increasing the data using, for example, Toeplitz matrices / tensors and G (H)ankel.</p>
      <p>Let's pay attention to the last thesis. Procedures for the formation and subsequent deposition of
Toeplitz or Hankel matrices (tensors) formed on universal sets allow us to solve problems under
uncertainty by FST methods under limited conditions of MF assignment, proposed by the authors in
[33]. Recall that the tensor in the general case can be represented by fibers or slices [30, 33].</p>
      <p>Note the following. First, the theory of rough sets as a new mathematical tool for the implementation
of procedures (fuzzy) data conclusions is proposed in [10]. In this regard, we note that the vast majority
of works concerning the type-2 FS and their extensions, consider the procedures of fuzzy conclusions,
ie the implementation of fuzzy rules "if A, then B otherwise C", although the number of problems under
uncertainty, where required type-2 FS and their extensions, much larger, especially for fuzzy
mathematics with type-2 FS.</p>
      <p>Secondly, as shown in the paper [11]: “Information granules are intuitively attractive constructions
that play a key role in human cognitive activity and decision-making. We perceive complex phenomena
by organizing existing knowledge together with existing experimental evidence and structuring it in the
form of some meaningful, semantically sound entities that are central to all subsequent processes of
world description, environmental reasoning, and decision support.”</p>
      <p>
        According to [12], type-1 FS can directly and effectively model certain types of uncertainty
(according to [
        <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref2">1</xref>
        ], these are fuzzy and inaccurate), because their MFs are absolutely crisp. On the other
hand, type-2 FS, having fuzzy MF, can model wider classes of uncertainty. The membership functions
of type-1 FS are two-dimensional, while the membership functions of the type-2 FS are
threedimensional. It is the new third dimension of the type-2 FS that provides additional degrees of freedom,
which allows you to directly model the uncertainties. In type-1 FS membership values are between zero
and one, while the values of fuzzy membership type-2 are considered as the value of type-1 fuzzy
membership, A as a total type-2 FS, is described as follows:
u

min  max 
 A  x   A  x, A  x   A  x. (7)</p>
      <p>In [13], the possibility of decomposing an interval type-2 fuzzy logic system into two parallel
type1 fuzzy systems was considered. This decomposition avoids the problems associated with type
reduction methods, which are usually required in type-2 fuzzy systems. Type-2 fuzzy set (T2 FS) - is a
three-dimensional fuzzy set, in which the primary fuzzy set is characterized by classes of membership,
which are not crisp numbers, and actually fuzzy sets - the so-called. secondary membership functions.
In works [14,15] tensor models of type-1 FS are offered, which allow to apply matrix-tensor methods,
to use tensor-matrix analysis for problems of fuzzy mathematics and if necessary to receive the result
in the form standard for FST. Since type-2 FS is an extension of type-1 FS and this object has an
effective representation in the matrix (tensor) basis, there is a logical desire to expand the application
of tensor methods and models directly for type-2 FS, especially since type-2 FS - 3D measurable object,
i.e. tensor.</p>
      <p>Moreover, in [16] it was shown that the use of type-1 fuzzy sets for modeling words is scientifically
incorrect. However, as shown in [30], most likely the reason lies in the fact that insufficient resources
were spent by researchers to develop the actual theory of type-2 FS, as evidenced by the fact that the
proposed operation for type-2 FS is not as effective and understandable as they need to be to satisfy real
application developers, and the lack of real compelling examples of type-2 FS applications

      <p>Type-2 FS has features that not only complicate its use but do not positively affect its prevalence,
especially in the problems of fuzzy mathematics, in particular fuzzy equations and fuzzy equation
systems, because the fuzzy mathematics apparatus designed mainly for type-1 FS and common to
type2 FS, was unable to solve such problems under uncertainty. This is especially true for the presentation
of type-2 FS in a form suitable for computer implementation, and defuzzification procedures. One of
the ways to solve these and other issues related to the use of FS-2 is to find new forms of representation,
granular form of representation (discussed by the authors earlier) and the geometric approach, which is
considered in [17, 18]. Note that the practical majority of algorithms designed to represent and defuzzify
type-2 FS, developed by J. Mendel.</p>
      <p>The authors believe that the uncertainty simulated by the type-2 FS can be more effectively
represented, in particular for the implementation of mathematical operations, by a tensor granule. For
the generalized case of type-2 FS, when the functions of the secondary membership - the third
dimension is of any type, there is a significant computational complexity that has limited their
deployment. The complexity of the calculations in the general case of type-2 FS prevents their
deployment.</p>
      <p>
        Of course, type-2 fuzzy sets exist in three-dimensional environments, this additional dimension
requires the introduction of additional notations. In particular, like type-1 FS, type-2 FS has a domain,
in this case X. The membership level at one point in the domain is a type-1 fuzzy number, known as the
secondary membership function. The domain of the secondary membership function in x, denoted by
Jx, is known as the secondary domain or shared domain. Estimation of membership at point u in the
function of secondary membership in x, denoted   x,u  , is known as the average level of
A
membership. In works [

        ] the way of representation of type-2 FS under the name is resulted

Moderate.
      </p>
      <p>It is important to note that the use of type-2 FS requires a preliminary assessment of the quality of
the solution obtained when using type-1 FS. In all cases, the type-2 FS is generated by the type-1 FS,
MF which is called primary. The following questions arise:

      <sec id="sec-5-1">
        <title>FS and type-1 FS, if they affect one object of uncertainty, are not considered criteria.</title>
        <p>On this basis, we can assume that the task of finding type-1 FS, obtained as a result of the
transformation of some type-2 FS, which have close (or coinciding) defuzzyfied values, is relevant. In
addition, many researchers consider an important problem of accuracy in the application of FST
methods, although accuracy under uncertainty is a conditional concept. The possibility of replacing the
type-2 FS with an equivalent (from the point of view of defaced value) type-1 FS is relevant.</p>
        <p>It should be added that this problem is not fundamentally new for the theory and practice of the
type2 FS. The above cited article [19] proposes ... a new approach to the defuzzification of interval fuzzy
sets of type-2 based on the convolution method, which converts the interval type- 2 FS into an embedded
representative set of type- 1 (RES), the defuzzyfied value of which approaches the corresponding the
value of the type-2 set, it is known that RES as a type-1 set, can be defuzzyfied quite easily.</p>
        <p>Available methods of defuzzyfication for discrete type-2 sets, first of all, provide the so-called
comprehensive defuzzyfication. For example, for fuzzy interval type-2 systems (FIS), the
defuzzification stage consists of two parts - the actual type reduction and defuzzification. This type
reduction algorithm was proposed by J. Mendel:
1. All possible built-in type-2 sets must be considered;
2. Minimum average membership found for each built-in set;
3. For each embedded set, the value of the domain of the centroid of type-1 of the embedded set
of type-2 is calculated;
4. For each embedded set, the value of the domain of the centroid of type-1 of the embedded set
of type-2 is calculated (x, z), it is possible that for some values x will be more than one corresponding
value z;
5. For each value of the domain the maximum average estimation is chosen, it creates a subset of
ordered pairs (x, zmax), such that between x and zmax there is an unambiguous correspondence. This
completes the reduction of the type-2 set to (Type Reduced Type) type-1.</p>
        <p>The obtained TRS - as a type-1 fuzzy set, is easily defuzzyfied by finding its centroid value. Thus,
the reduction of the type involves the processing of all embedded sets in the type-2 FS, which is what
makes the algorithm to be called "exhaustive defuzzification ". Naturally, there are a lot of built-in sets.
For example, when in the above example type-2 FIS implemented inference using sets that were
sampled on 51 slices on the x and y axes, the number of embedded sets in the aggregate set was
calculated as a value of the order of 2.91063</p>
        <p>Although embedded sets are generally easy to process, they create a bottleneck during processing
due to their high dimensionality. As a result, exhaustive defuzzification is an impractical method to use,
the most common method of reducing the type of fuzzy set interval – type-2 is the iterative procedure
Karnik - Mendel (KMIP). The result of reducing the type of the interval of fuzzy sets - type 2 is the
interval - type 1, where the centroid lies between two endpoints. An iterative procedure is an effective
method of finding these endpoints. The center of this set – type-1 (i.e. defuzzyfied value of the set –
type-2) is the center of this interval. Note that this procedure is extended to generalized fuzzy sets - 2
types [19].</p>
        <p>In [19] T1 MF between the upper and lower uncertainty bands was found as a representative
embedded set, but the method and concept used are not based entirely on the concept of the influence
of uncertainty on certain data and degrees of affiliation. In [20] is proposed methods of overcoming
difficulties in understanding and interpreting type-2 FS for FLC.</p>

      <p>Historically, FST has formed the main object of the theory - a subset of ordered pairs (type-1 FS) as
a procedure for a heuristic blurring of a universal set and its representation as a set of  -levels. Further
logic of development of the accepted concept naturally led to type-2 FS, formed as a procedure of
blurring crisp values of membership function type-1 FS. Assuming that the number of -levels in the
representation of uncertainty using FS is large enough (the concept of BIG DATA provides for the use
of FS as one of the possible models), we can show that initially selected by the expert FS (with heuristic
FN) can be simultaneously represented as multi fuzzy set [21] or as type-2 FS in 3D space. The fuzzy
set generalizes FS-1, -2 types, and intuitive sets.</p>
      <p>Nearest FS. The ability to represent SOP as 2D and 3D objects requires an assessment of their
proximity. Recall that the problem of finding the nearest (farthest) element, neighbor, etc. is not new to
mathematics. In the last 20 years, it has been replenished with the so-called problem of the nearest
Kronecker product, the solution of which is extremely important for modern mathematics, in particular,
tensor (matrix) analysis. Unfortunately, the use of this powerful device to solve problems under
uncertainty began only in the last 5-7 years [ 22].

and get a subset of ordered sequences (triplets), which allows fundamentally from new positions to
implement the analysis of uncertainty in 3D space, in particular, this applies to type-2 FS and so on.</p>
      <p>We present the problem of the nearest Kronecker product (NKP) using the paper [24]. It was shown
in [24] that the solution of the NKP problem is associated with the procedure of singular decomposition
of the permutation (vectorized) version of the matrix A. This leads to the problem

Copt as SOP, where one of components Copt  0,1 , - that gives the chance to apply the TFS device
to the optimum decisions calculated as a result of singular decompositions.</p>
      <p>Considering [31, 34] , the ordinary set A nearest to the fuzzy A one is located at the smallest
distance from the given fuzzy set, or in other words has the smallest norm. It is shown that this will be

then the search for the nearest fuzzy set should be implemented by entering 2 prerequisites:
 fuzzy set is used to represent uncertainty, all subsequent mathematical procedures are
performed on tensor models, the final result (if necessary) is converted into a subset of ordered pairs,
which is analogous to fuzzy set, always has a sigmoid-like shape and is calculated as a result of
tensor decompositions.</p>
        <p>The main advantage of the concept of nearest fuzzy sets (or subsets of ordered sequences) is that:
 it is possible to use hidden knowledge, which is contained in the set of initial data (SID) and
accumulated in the FS;
 there is an additional channel to obtain information for the formation of MF;

      <title>6. Conclusions</title>
      <p>1. The theory of FS is now a practically universal apparatus, which is used in almost all cases
where there may be uncertainty. However, the emergence of new problems requires continuous
expansion of the standard theory of fuzzy sets, which is reproduced in the creation of new types of
FS (rough FS, hesitate FS, multiFS, etc.), automation of FS formation processes, including MF,
contradicts the ideology of TFS. However, the main object of TFS is the fuzzy set, which has not
been studied to provide adequate answers to modern requirements, in particular, the urgent need to
process BIG DATA.
2. One of the areas of possible research is tensor modeling of uncertainty, the basis of which is
embedded in the nature of FS - a subset of ordered pairs. Objects that can represent tensors include
vectors and scalars, as well as other tensors. Tensors can take several different forms, such as scalars
and vectors (which are the simplest tensors), double vectors, multiline maps between vector spaces,
and even some operations such as a point product. Tensors are defined independently of any basis,
although their components are often called bases based on a particular coordinate system.
3. The representation of type-1 FS or type-2 FS as a tensor product of components is offered, the
result is a 2D tensor (or 3D tensor in case of large dimension). This approach allows to use of the
possibilities of tensor-matrix analysis to solve problems under uncertainty, along with the TFS
apparatus, realizing the extraction of new knowledge (matrix-tensor invariants, matrix-tensor
decompositions), which significantly expands the range of problems under uncertainty.
4. Based on the concept of extracting hidden knowledge, a method of automatically creating FS
by structuring the initial data set with subsequent tensor decomposition is proposed, the obtained
SOP is endowed with all the properties of MF. If it is impossible to implement the procedure of
structuring IDS, it is proposed on the basis of calculating the values of creating the US vector in
the form and blurring the latter by using special matrices (Toeplitz, Hankel, etc.), matrix (tensor)
decomposition of which will create SOP - analog FS.
5. It is shown that tensor models of standard type-1 FS allow representing this object
simultaneously as a 2D tensor, 3D tensor, type-2 FS with sparse US, and multiFS; in addition, the
standard type-2 FS can be represented as type-1 FS, preserving the properties of the original object
(F-norm, defuzzyfied value). This conclusion allows us to solve fuzzy equations in which the
coefficients and the unknown are fuzzy variables of types 1 and/or 2, at the level of standard matrix
equations, followed by the transformation of the matrix solution into the SOP.</p>
