Introduction Ranking fuzzy numbers is an important tool in decision making artificial intelligence data analysis and applications. Since the inception of fuzzy set theory by Zadeh 1965 and the first paper on ranking fuzzy numbers by Jain 1978 different scholars offered various techniques for ranking fuzzy numbers by representing the ill-defined quantities as fuzzy sets. Thus several studies have proposed various methods for ranking fuzzy numbers developed by applying maximizing set and minimizing set of fuzzy numbers considered to be an important breakthrough in ranking of fuzzy numbers.
