Track: Simulation Modeling

Abstract

Many analysis of mathematical models of terrorism and the network of militants are done by assuming certain condition. Hence, the parameters in the models are often treated as crisp values. On the other hand, like many other sosial systems, the network may consist of or related to many possibilistic processes, so that vagueness naturally occurs. In this paper we present an analysis of existing network of militants considering the vagueness of the parameter values via fuzzy theoretical method.  To do this, first an existing model is reintroduced briefly and then its dynamical behavior of the model are investigated by assuming fuzzy number to the parameter value. The result is then compared to the standard model with crisp number of its parameters. The result can be used as a reference to minimize the number of militants in a fuzzy environment and as an insight on how the behavior different to the crisp model.
