Interval type-2 fuzzy sets, each of which is characterized by the footprint of uncertainty, are a very useful means to depict the linguistic information in the process of decision making. In this article, we investigate the group decision making problems in which all the linguistic information provided by the decision makers is expressed as interval type-2 fuzzy decision matrices where each of ...

This paper proposes a new approach based on Bonferroni mean operator and possibility degree to solve fuzzy multi-attribute decision making (FMADM) problems in which the attribute value takes the form of interval type-2 fuzzy numbers. We introduce the concepts of interval possibility mean value and present a new method for calculating the possibility degree of two interval trapezoidal type-2 fuz...

in this paper, we introduce a function in order to measure the distancebetween two order intervals of fuzzy numbers, and show that this function isa metric. we investigate some properties of this metric, and finally presentan application. we think that this study could provide a more generalframework for researchers studying on interval analysis, fuzzy analysis andfuzzy decision making.
