A New Approach for Estimating Fuzzy Linear Regression Parameters with Application

Hazim Mansoor Gorgees, Mariam Mohammed Hilal

Abstract: The typical causes of pavement deterioration include traffic loading, environment or climate influences, drainage deficiencies, materials quality problems, construction deficiencies, and external contributors, for this situation, a fuzzy linear regression model was employed and analyzed by using the traditional methods and our proposed method. The total spread error was used as a criterion to compare the performance of the studied methods.
