In this paper one presents new similarity, cardinality and entropy measures for bipolar fuzzy set and for its particular forms like intuitionistic, paraconsistent and fuzzy set. All these are constructed in the framework of multi-valued representations and are based on a penta-valued logic that uses the following logical values: true, false, unknown, contradictory and ambiguous. Also a new dist...

In this paper we introduce the notion of additive and multiplicative generators on the lattice L , which is the underlying lattice of interval-valued fuzzy set theory (which is equivalent to intuitionistic fuzzy set theory in the sense of Atanassov). We study the properties of these operators, some of which are similar to well-known results on ([0, 1],≤).

In this paper the Archimedean property of t-norms on the lattice L is investigated, where L is the underlying lattice of interval-valued fuzzy set theory (Sambuc, 1975) and intuitionistic fuzzy set theory (Atanassov, 1983). We discuss also two additional variations on this property: the weak and strong Archimedean property.

This paper proposes an improved score function for the effective ranking order of interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IVIFSs) and an interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy TOPSIS method based on the score function to solve multicriteria decision-making problems in which all the preference information provided by decision-makers is expressed as interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy decision ...

Intuitionistic fuzzy sets in the sense of Atanassov and interval-valued fuzzy sets can be seen as L-fuzzy sets w.r.t. a special lattice L . Deschrijver [2] introduced additive and multiplicative generators on L based on a special kind of addition introduced in [3]. Actually, many other additions can be introduced. In this paper we investigate additive generators on L as far as possible independ...

In this paper, the notions of $(T,S)$-composition matrix and$(T,S)$-interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy equivalence matrix areintroduced where $(T,S)$ is a dual pair of triangular module. Theyare the generalization of composition matrix and interval-valuedintuitionistic fuzzy equivalence matrix. Furthermore, theirproperties and characterizations are presented. Then a new methodbased on $tilde{...

In this paper, we show that bilattices are robust mathematical structures that provide a natural accommodation to, and bridge between, intuitionistic fuzzy sets and interval-valued fuzzy sets. In this way, we resolve the controversy surrounding the formal equivalence of these two models, and open up the path for a new tradition for representing positive and negative information in fuzzy set the...

The aim of this paper is investigate the notion of a generalized interval valued intuitionistic fuzzy number (GIVIFN), which extends the interval valuedintuitionistic fuzzy number. Firstly, the concept of GIVIFNBs is introduced.Arithmetic operations and cut sets over GIVIFNBBs are investigated. Then the values and ambiguities of the membership degree and the non-membership degree and the value ...

In this paper, the notions of (T, S)-composition matrix and (T, S)interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy equivalence matrix are introduced where (T, S) is a dual pair of triangular module. They are the generalization of composition matrix and interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy equivalence matrix. Furthermore, their properties and characterizations are presented. Then a new method based on α̃−mat...

We investigate multiple attribute group decision making (MAGDM) problems with arguments taking the form of interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy numbers. In order to relieve influence of unfair arguments, a Gaussian distribution-based argument-dependent weighting method and a hybrid support-function-based argument-dependent weighting method are devised by, respectively, measuring support degrees...
