In this paper we suggest to approximate a fuzzy number by a piecewise linear 1-knot fuzzy number which is the closest one to the input fuzzy number among all piecewise linear 1-knot fuzzy numbers having the same core and the same support as the input. We discuss the existence of the approximation op­erator, show algorithms ready for the practical use and illustrate the considered concepts by examples. It turns out that such an approxima­tion task may be problematic.}, title={Piecewise Linear Approximation of Fuzzy Numbers Preserving the Support and Core}, type={Text}, keywords={Fuzzy numbers, Liczby rozmyte, Approximation of fuzzy numbers, Aproksymacja liczb rozmytych, Aproksymacja, Piecewise linear approximation, Core, Odcinkowa aproksymacja liniowa, Support, Baza, Jądro}, }
