Intuitionistic fuzzy set, which can be represented using the triangular intuitionistic fuzzy number (TIFN), is a more generalized platform for expressing imprecise, incomplete and inconsistent information when solving multi-criteria decision-making problems, as well as for reflecting the evaluation information exactly in different dimensions. In this paper, the TIFN has been applied for solving...

In this paper, we investigate an assignment problem in which cost coefficients are triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers. In conventional assignment problem, cost is always certain. This paper develops an approach to solve an intuitionistic fuzzy assignment problem where cost is not deterministic numbers but imprecise ones. Here, the elements of the costs (profits) matrix of the assignment pr...

An approach based on interval belief degrees and fuzzy evidential reasoning analytical algorithm is developed for multi-criteria decision problems with uncertainties. The criteria weights are represented by interval numbers and criteria values by triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers. The proposed approach does not need to utilize the theories such as arithmetic operations for Triangular intu...

This paper extends the technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) for solving multi-attribute group decision making (MAGDM) problems under triangular intuitionistic fuzzy sets by using its correlation coefficient. In situations where the information or the data is of the form of triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (TIFNs), some arithmetic aggregation operators h...

For multiple attribute group decision-making problems, in which the attribute values are triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers and the attribute weight information is the linguistic evaluation, a multiple attribute group decision-making method is proposed. In the method, first, to transform the 2-tuple linguistic attribute weights to the real numbers. Then, to aggregate the experts’ preferenc...

In fuzzy set theory, it is well known that a triangular fuzzy number can be uniquely determined through its position and entropies. In the present communication, we extend this concept on triangular intuitionistic fuzzy number for its one-to-one correspondence with its position and entropies. Using the concept of fuzzy entropy the estimators of the intuitionistic fuzzy regression coefficients h...

DEA (Data Envelopment Analysis) is a technique for evaluating the relative effectiveness of decision-making units (DMU) with multiple inputs and outputs data based on non-parametric modeling using mathematical programming (including linear programming, multi-parameter programming, stochastic programming, etc.). The classical DEA methods are developed to handle the information in the form of cri...

In this paper we define multiplication between intuitionistic fuzzy matrices (IFMs) and we derive the conditions for a block IFM to be regular. Also a method to find the generalized inverse of it with the help of the generalized inverses of the blocks of the original matrix is described. Again, it is shown that a block intuitionistic fuzzy matrix can be decomposed into an upper triangular idemp...

jahanshahloo has suggested a method for the solving linear programming problems with zero-one variables‎. ‎in this paper we formulate fully fuzzy linear programming problems with zero-one variables and a method for solving these problems is presented using the ranking function and also the branch and bound method along with an example is presented.

The applicability of Net Present Value (NPV) in an investment project is becoming more and more popular in the field of engineering economics. The classical NPV methodology involves only the precise and accurate data of the investment project. In the present communication, we give a new mathematical model for NPV which uses the concept of intuitionistic fuzzy set theory. The proposed model is b...
