Interval-valued fuzzy soft sets realize a hybrid soft computing model in a general framework. Both Molodtsov's soft sets and interval-valued fuzzy sets can be seen as special cases of interval-valued fuzzy soft sets. In this study, we first compare four different types of interval-valued fuzzy soft subsets and reveal the relations among them. Then we concentrate on investigating some nonclassic...

Interval neutrosophic set (INS) is a generalization of interval valued intuitionistic fuzzy set (IVIFS), whose the membership and non-membership values of elements consist of fuzzy range, while single valued neutrosophic set (SVNS) is regarded as extension of intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS). In this paper, we extend the hierarchical clustering techniques proposed for IFSs and IVIFSs to SVNSs and...

For interval-valued fuzzy datasets, people have started to do research on interval-valued fuzzy rough sets and relevant models. However, these models could not be effectively applied to handle the real-valued datasets such as interval-valued fuzzy datasets as variable precision problems were not considered in interval-valued fuzzy rough sets. In this paper, fuzzy variable precision rough sets a...

Due to the increasing competition of globalization, selection of the most appropriate supplier is one of the key factors for the success of a supply chain management. Due to conflicting evaluations and insufficient information about the criteria, Intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFSs) are considered as an impressive tool and utilized to specify the relative importance of the criteria. The aim of this...

Neutrosopic sets were introduced by Smarandache [2] which are the generalization of fuzzy sets and intuitionistic fuzzy sets. The Neutrosophic sets have many applications in medical, management sciences, life sciences and engineering, graph theory, robotics, automata theory and computer science. The single valued neutrosophic graphs were introduced by Broumi, Talea, Bakali and Smarandache [5]. ...

In the present paper, a new entropy of order α and type β on Interval-Valued Intutionistic Fuzzy Sets (IVIFSs) along with their proofs of validity is proposed. It has been proved that the proposed entropy has monotonic decreasing behavior with respect to α and β. Further, a new algorithm for multiple attribute decision making method (MADM) has been provided using the benefit attributes and cost...
