چکیده

Picture fuzzy set is characterized by neutral membership function along with the membership and non-membership functions, and is, therefore, more general than the intuitionistic fuzzy set which is only characterized by membership and non-membership functions. In this paper, first, we are going to point out a drawback and try to fix it by the existing trapezoidal picture fuzzy number. Furthermore, we define an $LR$ flat picture fuzzy number, which is a generalization of trapezoidal picture fuzzy numbers. We also discuss a linear programming model with $LR$ flat picture fuzzy numbers as parameters and variables and present a method to solve these type of problems using a generalized ranking function.
