This paper demonstrates twometa-mathematical propositions concerning the increasingly popular “intuitionistic” (= vague) approaches to fuzzy sets and fuzzy topology, as well as the closely related interval-valued (= grey) sets and interval-valued “intuitionistic” sets: (1) the term “intuitionistic” in these contexts is historically inappropriate given the standard mathematical usage of “intuiti...

material presented at the tutorial as well as a useful list of references. Two-valued Boolean (Crisp) as well as their many-valued extensions (fuzzy relations) play increasingly important role in representation and computing with engineering and scientiic data and knowledge. Relations provide important tools in dealing with modal and belief logics used in AI. In intelligent systems and Knowledg...

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 fuzzy extension principle has been widely used to extend the domain of mathematical functions and relations from elements of a referential set to fuzzy subsets of that referential set. However, there are restrictions associated with the fuzzy extension principle. This paper addresses the question how restricted is the family of “fuzzy set to fuzzy set mappings” obtained by the fuzzy extensi...
