| Summary: | We introduce a new fuzzy linear regression method. The method is capable of approximating fuzzy relationships between an independent and a dependent variable. The independent and dependent variables are expected to be a real value and triangular fuzzy numbers, respectively. We demonstrate on twenty datasets that the method is reliable, and it is less sensitive to outliers, compare with possibilistic-based fuzzy regression methods. Unlike other commonly used fuzzy regression methods, the presented method is simple for implementation and it has linear time-complexity. The method guarantees non-negativity of model parameter spreads.
