In this work, we shall present some novel process to measure the similarity between picture fuzzy sets. Firstly, we adopt the concept of intuitionistic fuzzy sets, interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets and picture fuzzy sets. Secondly, we develop some similarity measures between picture fuzzy sets, such as, cosine similarity measure, weighted cosine similarity measure, set-theoretic similar...

Chemical communication plays an integral part in the rhizosphere and in larger ecological processes. The idea of kin recognition and perception of kin-specific chemical signals have long been recognized in microbial and animal models. By contrast, general chemical communication between plants has been well established, especially with regard to the negative communication between plants of two d...

the effect of weeds on yield of plants is variable during the plant growing periods. recognition of these critical periods is basically important for weed control. the gompertz and logistic are two mathematical models, which are suitable to study the presence of weed effect on the yield of plants. the main problem of using these models is calibration. in this study, a method is developed for mo...

considering the extent of salinity in soils of iran, abiotic stresses such as salinity are serious threat to agricultural production, yield and essential oil of medicinal plants. recognition of threshold for salt tolerance and determining the slope of yield loss in medicinal plants has an important role in the selection of suitable lands for their cultivation. the effect of salinity stress on s...
