The intuitionistic linguistic set (ILS) is an extension of linguisitc variable. To overcome the drawback of using single real number to represent membership degree and non-membership degree for ILS, the concept of interval-valued intuitionistic linguistic set (IVILS) is introduced through representing the membership degree and non-membership degree with intervals for ILS in this paper. The oper...

Mathematical morphology (MM) offers a wide range of tools for image processing and computer vision. MM was originally conceived for the processing of binary images and later extended to gray-scale morphology. Extensions of classical binary morphology to gray-scale morphology include approaches based on fuzzy set theory that give rise to fuzzy mathematical morphology (FMM). From a mathematical p...

The fuzzy rough sets and generalized fuzzy rough sets have been extended by three pairs of fuzzy logical operators to deal with real-valued data for a variety of models. Three pairs of fuzzy logical operators are triangular norm or t-norm and its dual (t-conorm), residual implicator or R-implicator and its dual, fuzzy implicator and t-norm, which are frequently discussed in generalization model...

Soft sets have been regarded as a useful mathematical tool to deal with uncertainty. In recent years, many scholars have shown an intense interest in soft sets and extended standard soft sets to intuitionistic fuzzy soft sets, interval-valued fuzzy soft sets, and generalized fuzzy soft sets. In this paper, hesitant fuzzy soft sets are defined by combining fuzzy soft sets with hesitant fuzzy set...

The necessity of dealing with uncertainty in real wold problems has been a long-term research challenge that has originated different methodologies and theories. Fuzzy sets along with their extensions such as, type-2 fuzzy sets, interval valued fuzzy sets, Atanassov’s intuitionistic fuzzy sets, etc., have provided a wide range of tools able to deal with uncertainty in different type of problems...

A new concept of the inclusion measure for intuitionistic fuzzy sets is proposed by the axiomatic definition. Also, the distance measures, similarity measures and information entropy are recalled and summarized. Most of important, some relationships among distance measure, information entropy, and inclusion measure of IFSs are then investigated. Finally, we obtain some important theorems by whi...
