Abstract In this paper, we use interval-valued fuzzy numbers to fuzzify the crisp linear programming to three cases. The first case, we use intervalvalued fuzzy numbers to fuzzify the coefficients in the objective function. We get a linear programming in the fuzzy sense. The second case, we use interval-valued fuzzy numbers to fuzzify the coefficients akj in the constraints about xj, j = 1, 2, ...

Interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy set (IVIFS) has developed to cope with the uncertainty of imprecise human thinking. In the present communication, new entropy and similarity measures for IVIFSs based on exponential function are presented and compared with the existing measures. Numerical results reveal that the proposed information measures attain the higher association with the existing me...

When a class of fuzzy value functions constitute a metric space, the completeness and separability is an important problem that must be considered to discuss the approximation of fuzzy systems. In this paper, Firstly, a new tK-integral norm is defined by introducing two induced operators, and prove that the class of tK-integrable fuzzy value functions is a metric space. And then, the integral t...

Abstract.With respect to interval-valued hesitant fuzzy multi-attribute decision making, this study first presents a new ranking method for interval-valued hesitant fuzzy elements. In order to obtain the comprehensive values of alternatives, two induced generalized interval-valued hesitant fuzzy hybrid operators based on the Shapley function are defined, which globally consider the importance o...

We introduce the notions of interval-valued fuzzy prime ideals, interval-valued fuzzy completely prime ideals and intervalvalued fuzzy weakly completely prime ideals. And we give a characterization of interval-valued fuzzy ideals and establish relationships between interval-valued fuzzy completely prime ideals and interval-valued fuzzy weakly completely prime ideals.

We introduce the concept of generalised interval-valued fuzzy soft set and its operations and study some of their properties. We give applications of this theory in solving a decision making problem. We also introduce a similarity measure of two generalised interval-valued fuzzy soft sets and discuss its application in amedical diagnosis problem: fuzzy set; soft set; fuzzy soft set; generalised...

olds ( α̃, β̃ ) and interval valued fuzzy generalized bi-ideals with thresholds ( α̃, β̃ ) , which are generalization of interval valued fuzzy ideals, interval valued fuzzy interior ideals, interval valued fuzzy quasi ideals and interval valued fuzzy generalized bi-ideals, in a semigroup are introduced, and related properties are investigated. Characterizations of regular semigroups by the properti...

The notion of (∈,∈ ∨q)-interval-valued fuzzy prime ideals in commutative BCK-algebras is introduced. Some characterization theorems in (∈,∈ ∨q)-interval-valued fuzzy prime ideals in commutative BCK-algebras are derived. Also we study relation between (∈,∈ ∨q)-interval-valued fuzzy prime ideal and (∈ ∨q)-interval-valued fuzzy level prime ideals. Characterization of interval-valued fuzzy set to b...

The notion of fuzzy function based on many-valued equivalence relations (many-valued similarity relations (equalities) [17, 18, 19], fuzzy equivalence relations [4, 6, 7, 21, 22, 26], similarity relations [1, 2, 3, 15, 28], indistinguishability operators [27], etc.) has been introduced by several authors, and applied to category theory [5], approximate reasoning and fuzzy control theory [8, 10,...

As a combination of the hesitant fuzzy set (HFS) and the single valued neutrosophic set (SVNS), the single valued neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy set (SVNHFS) is an important concept to handle uncertain and vague information existing in real-life, which consists of three membership functions including hesitancy, as the truth-hesitancy membership function, the indeterminacy-hesitancy membership func...
