Molodtsov first proposed the soft set theory, which can be used as a general mathematical tool for dealing with fuzzy and uncertain information. As a generalization of soft set, interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy soft set is another soft set structure,it is a combination of an interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy set and a soft set. The objective of this paper is to study the decision making ...

The aim of this paper is to define the productoperation on a family of interval valued events and the notion ofjoint interval valued observable. We show the connection betweenproduct operations for interval valued events and intuitionisticfuzzy events, too. We display the relation between joint intervalvalued observable and joint intuitionistic fuzzy observable. We...

Dubois and Prade defined an interval-valued expectation of fuzzy numbers, viewing them as consonant random sets. Carlsson and Fullér defined an interval-valued mean value of fuzzy numbers, viewing them as possibility distributions. In this paper we shall introduce the notation of weighted interval-valued possibilistic mean value of fuzzy numbers and investigate its relationship to the interval-...

Abstract The hesitant fuzzy set has been an important tool to address problems of decision making. There are several various improved sets, such as dual set, interval-valued and intuitionistic however, no one kind sets could reflect attitude characteristics makers on time-sequences. In reality, time-sequence is sector situations might have different knowledges the same alternative at moments. T...

The main aim of this paper is to present a novel method for ranking hesitant fuzzy sets (HFSs) based on transforming HFSs into fuzzy sets (FSs). The idea behind the method is an interesting HFS decomposition which is referred here to as the horizontal representation in the current study. To show the validity of the proposed ranking method, we apply it to solve a multi-attribute decision-making ...

In this paper, we first use a fuzzy preference relation with a membership function representing preference degree forcomparing two interval-valued fuzzy numbers and then utilize a relative preference relation improved from the fuzzypreference relation to rank a set of interval-valued fuzzy numbers. Since the fuzzy preference relation is a total orderingrelation that satisfies reciprocal and tra...

The concept of the rough set was originally proposed by Pawlak as a formal tool for modelling and processing incomplete information in information systems, then in 1990, Dubois and Prade first introduced the rough fuzzy sets and fuzzy rough sets as a fuzzy extension of the rough sets. The aim of this paper is to present a new extension of the rough set theory by means of integrating the classic...

It is well known fact that binary relations are generalized mathematical functions. Contrary to functions from domain to range, binary relations may assign to each element of domain two or more elements of range. Some basic operations on functions such as the inverse and composition are applicable to binary relations as well. Depending on the domain or range or both are fuzzy value fuzzy set, i...
