Supplier selection can be considered as a complicated multi criteria decision-making problem.In this paper the problem of supplier selection is studied in the presence of conflicting evaluations and insufficient information about the criteria and different attitudes of decision makers towards the risk. Most of fuzzy approaches used in multi-criteria group decision making (MCGDM) are non-intuiti...

Neutrosophic sets was defined by Smarandache, which is a generalized of fuzzy sets and intuitionistic fuzzy sets. A single valued neutrosophic set is an instance of neutrosophic sets defined by Wang et al. (2005). In this study, we introduce similarity measure on two single valued neutrosophic sets. We develop an entropy of single valued neutrosophic sets. Finally, we give an example which demo...

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...

The purpose of this paper is to introduce and study the concepts of fuzzy $e$-open set, fuzzy $e$-continuity and fuzzy $e$-compactness in intuitionistic fuzzy topological spaces. After giving the fundamental concepts of intuitionistic fuzzy sets and intuitionistic fuzzy topological spaces, we present intuitionistic fuzzy $e$-open sets and intuitionistic fuzzy $e$-continuity and other results re...

We generalize the power averaging operators to interval-valued Atanassov’s intuitionistic fuzzy environments, and develop a series of generalized interval-valued Atanassov’s intuitionistic fuzzy power aggregation operators. The main advantages of these operators are that they not only accommodate situations in which the input arguments are interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (IVIFNs), ...

Two induced aggregation operators with novelly designed TOPSIS order-inducing variables are proposed: Induced Interval-valued Intuitionistic Fuzzy Hybrid Averaging I-IIFHA operator and Induced Interval-valued Intuitionistic Fuzzy Hybrid Geometric I-IIFHG operator. The merit of two aggregation operators is that they can consider additional preference information of decision maker’s attitudinal c...

We present a family of algebraic structures, called rectangular bilattices, which serve as a natural accommodation and powerful generalization to both intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFSs) and interval-valued fuzzy sets (IVFSs). These structures are useful on one hand to clarify the exact nature of the relationship between the above two common extensions of fuzzy sets, and on the other hand provide ...
