Fuzzy Approaches Ability and their Performance Comparison to Fraud Detection in Financial Reporting

The possibility of fraud in the issued financial statements, and its negative impacts on financial markets and the resulting reduction of investment have caused responsible monitoring organizations to detect the frauds and to move seriously against them. This study aimed to investigate the ability o...
