We first propose a series of similarity measures for intuitionistic fuzzy values (IFVs) based on the intuitionistic fuzzy operators (Atanassov 1995). The parameters in the proposed similarity measures can control the degree of membership and the degree of non-membership of an IFV, which can reflect the decision maker’s risk preference. Moreover, we can obtain some known similarity measures when...

This study presents a new similarity measure based on the geometric-mean averaging operator to handle the similarity measure problems of generalized fuzzy numbers. Some properties of the proposed similarity measure are demonstrated, and 26 sets of generalized fuzzy numbers are used to compare the proposed method with existing similarity measures. Comparison results indicate that the proposed si...

The $L$-fuzzy approximation operator associated with an $L$-fuzzy approximation space $(X,R)$ turns out to be a saturated $L$-fuzzy closure (interior) operator on a set $X$ precisely when the relation $R$ is reflexive and transitive. We investigate the relations between $L$-fuzzy approximation spaces and $L$-(fuzzy) topological spaces.

Abstract: The subtraction operation of intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFSs) has been scarcely used for practical applications since it was introduced. Therefore, it is necessary to propose an aggregation operator based on the subtraction operation of IFSs for engineering applications. Then, clay-brick selection is an important decision-making problem for better building construction. To handle the ...

Based on the Choquet integral and the generalized Shapley function, two new induced Atanassov’s interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy hybrid aggregation operators are defined, which are named as the induced generalized Shapley Atanassov’s interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy hybrid Choquet arithmetical averaging (IGS-IVIFHCAA) operator and the induced generalized Shapley Atanassov’s interval-val...

In [14] Yager and Filev introduced the Induced Ordered Weighted Averaging (IOWA) operator. In this paper, we provide some IOWA operators to aggregate fuzzy preference relations in group decision making problems. In particular, we present the Importance IOWA (I-IOWA) operator, the Consistency IOWA (C-IOWA) operator and the Preference IOWA (P-IOWA) operator. We also provide a procedure to deal wi...

Multiple attributes group decision making (MAGDM) is regarded as the process of determining the best feasible solution by a group of experts or decision makers according to the attributes that represent different effects. In assessing the performance of each alternative with respect to each attribute and the relative importance of the selected attributes, quantitative/qualitative evaluations ar...
