Fuzzy decision-making consists in making decisions under complex and uncertain environments where the information can be assessed with fuzzy sets and systems. The aim of this study is to review the main contributions in this field by using a bibliometric approach. For doing so, the article uses a wide range of bibliometric indicators including the citations and the h-index. Moreover, it also us...

Let X denote a locally compact metric space and φ : X → X be a continuous map. In the 1970s L. Zadeh presented an extension principle, helping us to fuzzify the dynamical system (X, φ), i.e., to obtain a map Φ for the space of fuzzy sets on X. We extend an idea mentioned in [P. Diamond, A. Pokrovskii, Chaos, entropy and a generalized extension principle, Fuzzy Sets and Systems 61 (1994)] and we...

Introducing rough sets in hesitant fuzzy set domain and using it for the various applications would open up new possibilities in rough set theory. For this purpose the notion of hesitant fuzzy relations is introduced. The foundation of equivalence hesitant fuzzy relation is laid. Definition of anti-reflexive kernel, symmetric kernel etc. is proposed and the formulae to evaluate them are derived...

Topology is an important and major area of mathematics and it can give many relationships between other scientific areas and mathematical models.The aim of this paper is to construct intuitionistic fuzzy soft multi topological space and it is shown that an intuitionistic fuzzy soft multi topological space gives a family of parameterized topological spaces and some basic properties regarding wit...

In this paper, we introduce the concept of linear v{C}ech closure spaces and establish the properties of open sets in linear v{C}ech closure spaces (Lv{C}CS). Here, we observe that the concept of linearity is preserved by semi-open sets, g-semi open sets, $gamma$-open sets, sgc-dense sets and compact sets in Lv{C}CS. We also discuss the concept of relative v{C}ech closure operator, meet and pro...

In this paper we describe the open source data analytics platform KNIME, focusing particularly on extensions and modules supporting fuzzy sets and fuzzy learning algorithms such as fuzzy clustering algorithms, rule induction methods, and interactive clustering tools. In addition we outline a number of experimental extensions, which are not yet part of the open source release and present two ill...

holds (but which implies that the space is actually a Menger space). Z̆ikić [2] extended the existence part of their theorem showing that it is enough to consider the case of special sequence tn = 1/ n and that (1) holds for some x = x0 and y = f (x0). The error in her main theorem (and in all consequences) concerns the statement that, under the same conditions, also the uniqueness of fixed poin...

Chiclana, Herrera and Herrera-Viedma studied conditions under which the reciprocity property is maintained in the aggregation of reciprocal fuzzy preference relations using the OWA operator guided by a relative linguistic quantifier. In this note, we focus on the reciprocity in the aggregation of fuzzy preference relations (that is, the additive reciprocity is not assumed) using the OWA operato...

In multiperson decision making situations, it is quite natural that different decision makers who may have different background and knowledge will provide their preferences by different kinds of preference relations. This paper proposes a linguistic multiperson decision making model (LMDMM) based on linguistic preference relations, integrating fuzzy preference relations, different types of mult...
