Motivated by intuitionistic fuzzy sets and fzzy linguistic approach, this article proposes the concept of linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (LIFNs) where membership and and nonmembership are represented as linguistic terms. In order to process the multiple attribute decision making (MADM) with LIFNs, we introduce the linguistic score index and linguistic accuracy index of the LIFN. Simult...

A crucial issue related to the Atanassov’s intuitionistic fuzzy operators is how to determine their weights. Various weighted methods have been proposed last decades, but it seems that there is no investigation on the monotonous and proportioninvariant properties, which is decisive for aggregation and comparison of Atanassov’s intuitionistic fuzzy values in group decision making. In this paper,...

In decision making, a widely used methodology to manage unbalanced fuzzy linguistic information is the linguistic hierarchy (LH), which relies on a linguistic symbolic computational model based on ordinal 2-tuple linguistic representation. However, the ordinal 2-tuple linguistic approach does not exploit all advantages of Zadeh’s fuzzy linguistic approach to model uncertainty because the member...

Single-valued neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy set (SVNHFS) is a combination of single-valued neutrosophic set and hesitant fuzzy set, and its aggregation tools play an important role in the multiple criteria decision-making (MCDM) process. This paper investigates the MCDM problems in which the criteria under SVNHF environment are in different priority levels. First, the generalized single-valued ne...

The fuzzy transform (F-transform) is ubiquitous in different research fields and applications, such as image data compression, mining, knowledge discovery, the analysis of linguistic expressions. As a generalization F-transform, this article, we introduce continuous F-transform its inverse, an integral operator induced by kernel function. Through relation between membership functions kernels, s...

Assuming a group decision making problem where the experts express their opinions by means of linguistic preference relations, the application of the Linguistic OWA operator guided by fuzzy majority is analyzed. Two diierent perspectives of the use of the LOWA operator are presented: (i) in the selection process, to aggregate individual linguistic preference relations in a collective one and to...

In this note, we aim to present some properties of the space of all weakly fuzzy bounded linear operators, with the Bag and Samanta’s operator norm on Felbin’s-type fuzzy normed spaces. In particular, the completeness of this space is studied. By some counterexamples, it is shown that the inverse mapping theorem and the Banach-Steinhaus’s theorem, are not valid for this fuzzy setting. Also...

in this paper, we propose a successive approximation method based on fuzzy wavelet like operator to approximate the solution of linear fuzzy fredholm integral equations of the second kind with arbitrary kernels. we give the convergence conditions and an error estimate. also, we investigate the numerical stability of the computed values with respect to small perturbations in the first iteration....

The objective of this work is to present a triangular interval type-2 (TIT2) intuitionistic fuzzy sets and their corresponding aggregation operators, namely, TIT2 intuitionistic fuzzy weighted averaging, TIT2 intuitionistic fuzzy ordered weighted averaging and TIT2 intuitionistic fuzzy hybrid averaging based on Frank norm operation laws. Furthermore, based on these operators, an approach to mul...

Yager’s ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operator has been widely used in soft decision making to aggregate experts’ individual opinions or preferences for achieving an overall decision. The traditional Yager’s OWA operator focuses exclusively on the aggregation of crisp numbers. However, human experts usually tend to express their opinions or preferences in a very natural way via linguistic te...
