چکیده

Since its inception fuzzy set theory has been regarded as a formalism suitable to deal with the imprecision intrinsic to many medical problems. Based on a literature survey on the first 30 years, we investigate the impact fuzzy set theory has had on the work in medical AI and point out what it is most appreciated for.

ON GENERALIZED FUZZY MULTISETS AND THEIR USE IN COMPUTATION

An orthogonal approach to the fuzzification of both multisets and hybridsets is presented. In particular, we introduce $L$-multi-fuzzy and$L$-fuzzy hybrid sets, which are general enough and in spirit with thebasic concepts of fuzzy set theory. In addition, we study the properties ofthese structures. Also, the usefulness of these structures is examined inthe framework of mechanical multiset proc...

A note on decision making in medical investigations using new divergence measures for intuitionistic fuzzy sets

Srivastava and Maheshwari (Iranian Journal of Fuzzy Systems 13(1)(2016) 25-44) introduced a new divergence measure for intuitionisticfuzzy sets (IFSs). The properties of the proposed divergence measurewere studied and the efficiency of the proposed divergence measurein the context of medical diagnosis was also demonstrated. In thisnote, we point out some errors in ...

Thyroid disorder diagnosis based on Mamdani fuzzy inference system classifier

Introduction: Classification and prediction are two most important applications of statistical methods in the field of medicine. According to this note that the classical classification are provided due to the clinical symptom and  do not involve the use of specialized information and knowledge. Therefore, using a classifier that can combine all this information, is necessary. The aim of this s...

Multimodal medical image fusion based on Yager’s intuitionistic fuzzy sets

The objective of image fusion for medical images is to combine multiple images obtained from various sources into a single image suitable for better diagnosis. Most of the state-of-the-art image fusing technique is based on nonfuzzy sets, and the fused image so obtained lags with complementary information. Intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFS) are determined to be more suitable for civilian, and medi...

A Framework for Optimal Attribute Evaluation and Selection in Hesitant Fuzzy Environment Based on Enhanced Ordered Weighted Entropy Approach for Medical Dataset

Background: In this paper, a generic hesitant fuzzy set (HFS) model for clustering various ECG beats according to weights of attributes is proposed. A comprehensive review of the electrocardiogram signal classification and segmentation methodologies indicates that algorithms which are able to effectively handle the nonstationary and uncertainty of the signals should be used for ECG analysis. Ex...
