A Similarity Measure for Interval-valued Fuzzy Sets and Its Application in Supporting Medical Diagnostic Reasoning
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a new similarity measure for interval-valued fuzzy sets and show its usefulness in medical diagnostic reasoning. We point out advantages of this new concept over the most commonly used similarity measures which are the counterparts of distances. The measure we propose involves both similarity and dissimilarity.

Weighted similarity measure on interval-valued fuzzy sets and its application to pattern recognition
A new approach to define the similarity measure betweeninterval-valued fuzzy sets is presented. The proposed approach isbased on a weighted measure in which the normalized similaritiesbetween lower functions and also between upper functions arecombined by a weight parameter. The properties of this similaritymeasure are investigated. It is shown that, the proposed measurehas some advantages in c...
متن کاملINTERVAL-VALUED INTUITIONISTIC FUZZY SETS AND SIMILARITY MEASURE
In this paper, the problem of measuring the degree of inclusion and similarity measure for two interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets is considered. We propose inclusion and similarity measure by using order on interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets connected with lexicographical order. Moreover, some properties of inclusion and similarity measure and some correlation, between them an...
متن کاملA new vector valued similarity measure for intuitionistic fuzzy sets based on OWA operators
Plenty of researches have been carried out, focusing on the measures of distance, similarity, and correlation between intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFSs).However, most of them are single-valued measures and lack of potential for efficiency validation.In this paper, a new vector valued similarity measure for IFSs is proposed based on OWA operators.The vector is defined as a two-tuple consisting of ...
متن کاملSOME SIMILARITY MEASURES FOR PICTURE FUZZY SETS AND THEIR APPLICATIONS
In this work, we shall present some novel process to measure the similarity between picture fuzzy sets. Firstly, we adopt the concept of intuitionistic fuzzy sets, interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets and picture fuzzy sets. Secondly, we develop some similarity measures between picture fuzzy sets, such as, cosine similarity measure, weighted cosine similarity measure, set-theoretic similar...

Interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy set (IVIFS) has developed to cope with the uncertainty of imprecise human thinking. In the present communication, new entropy and similarity measures for IVIFSs based on exponential function are presented and compared with the existing measures. Numerical results reveal that the proposed information measures attain the higher association with the existing me...
