In this paper, we first use a fuzzy preference relation with a membership function representing preference degree forcomparing two interval-valued fuzzy numbers and then utilize a relative preference relation improved from the fuzzypreference relation to rank a set of interval-valued fuzzy numbers. Since the fuzzy preference relation is a total orderingrelation that satisfies reciprocal and tra...

it is firstly proved that the multi-input-single-output (miso) fuzzy systems based on interval-valued $r$- and $s$-implications can approximate any continuous function defined on a compact set to arbitrary accuracy.  a formula to compute the lower upper bounds on the number  of interval-valued fuzzy sets needed to achieve a pre-specified approximation  accuracy for an arbitrary multivariate con...

in this paper, we present a revised similarity measure based onchen-and-chen's similarity measure for fuzzy risk analysis. the revisedsimilarity measure uses the corrected formulae to calculate the centre ofgravity points, therefore it is more  effective than the chen-and-chen'smethod. the revised similarity measure can overcome the drawbacks of theexisting methods. we have also proposed a new ...

The aim of this paper is investigate the notion of a generalized interval valued intuitionistic fuzzy number (GIVIFN), which extends the interval valuedintuitionistic fuzzy number. Firstly, the concept of GIVIFNBs is introduced.Arithmetic operations and cut sets over GIVIFNBBs are investigated. Then the values and ambiguities of the membership degree and the non-membership degree and the value ...

Dubois and Prade defined an interval-valued expectation of fuzzy numbers, viewing them as consonant random sets. Carlsson and Fullér defined an interval-valued mean value of fuzzy numbers, viewing them as possibility distributions. In this paper we shall introduce the notation of weighted interval-valued possibilistic mean value of fuzzy numbers and investigate its relationship to the interval-...

in this paper, the notions of $(t,s)$-composition matrix and$(t,s)$-interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy equivalence matrix areintroduced where $(t,s)$ is a dual pair of triangular module. theyare the generalization of composition matrix and interval-valuedintuitionistic fuzzy equivalence matrix. furthermore, theirproperties and characterizations are presented. then a new methodbased on $tilde{...

We establish relationships between the set of trapezoidal intuitionistic fuzzy numbers and the set of interval-valued trapezoidal fuzzy numbers and, on the other hand, between the set of triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers and the set of triangular fuzzy numbers. Based on these main results of the paper, the methods or procedures elaborated for interval-valued trapezoidal or triangular fuzz...

In this paper, we proposed a new interval-valued approximation of interval-valued fuzzy numbers, which is the best one with respect to a certain measure of distance between interval-valued fuzzy numbers. Also, a set of criteria for interval-valued approximation operators is suggested.

* Correspondence author. Abstract The fuzzy multi-attribute decision making problems are investigated, in which the attribute values are given as intervalvalued intuitionistic fuzzy numbers and the attribute weight information is incomplete. Some operational laws of interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy numbers, score function and accuracy function of interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy numbers...
