Using soft product operations...

Hesitant fuzzy set is a very useful technique in the situations where there are some difficulties in determining the membership of an element to a set. Some aggregation methods have been developed for hesitant fuzzy information. Current aggregation methods are under the assumption that the criteria are at the same priority level. However, in real decision making problems, criteria have differen...

Here are many situations in real applications of decision making where we deal with uncertain conditions.  Due to the different sources of uncertainty,  since its original definition of fuzzy sets in 1965 cite{zadeh1965},  different generalizations and extensions of fuzzy sets have been introduced: Type-2 fuzzy sets cite{6,13}, Intuitionistic fuzzy sets cite{1}, fuzzy multi-sets cite{37} and et...

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...

Abstract Convexity is a deeply studied concept since it very useful in many fields of mathematics, like optimization. When we deal with imprecision, the convexity required as well and some important applications can be found fuzzy optimization, particular sets. In this paper have extended notion for interval-valued sets order to able cover wider area imprecision. We show its interesting propert...

As we may have a set of possible values when comparing alternatives (or criteria), the hesitant fuzzy preference relation becomes a suitable and powerful technique to deal with this case. This paper mainly focuses on the multiplicative consistency of the hesitant fuzzy preference relation. First of all, we explore some properties of the hesitant fuzzy preference relation and develop some new ag...

The relationship between the intuitionistic fuzzy sets and the algebraic hyperstructures is described in this paper. The concept of the quasi-coincidence of an intuitionistic fuzzy interval valued with an interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy set is introduced and this is a natural generalization of the quasi-coincidence of an intuitionistic fuzzy point in intuitionistic fuzzy sets. By using thi...

Lattice-valued up-sets and down-sets of a poset are investigated under the cutworthy approach. It is proved that the collections of all lattice valued up-sets and down-sets of a given poset are complete lattices under fuzzy inclusion. Properties of these are investigated. For a given collection of crisp up-sets of a poset, necessary and sufficient conditions are given under which the family rep...

Grey systems and interval valued fuzzy sets appear to be similar concepts. This abstract provides a brief introduction to grey systems and compares them to interval valued fuzzy sets. We argue that grey system is similar to an interval fuzzy set, but has different properties. Grey systems focus on the interval range of the system property itself, but interval fuzzy sets consider the fuzzy membe...
