This paper demonstrates twometa-mathematical propositions concerning the increasingly popular “intuitionistic” (= vague) approaches to fuzzy sets and fuzzy topology, as well as the closely related interval-valued (= grey) sets and interval-valued “intuitionistic” sets: (1) the term “intuitionistic” in these contexts is historically inappropriate given the standard mathematical usage of “intuiti...

Original scientific paper From the view of time sequence, a petroleum pipeline leak detection and location method is proposed based on intuitionistic fuzzy set theory. The method uses wavelet decomposition and semi-hard-and-soft thresholding method to remove the noise of signal. Secondly, selecting fixed-length normal dynamic pressure wave signal sequences as the template sequence, and the same...

By extending the Bonferroni mean operator to the intuitionistic fuzzy situation, we introduce a new kind of aggregating operator: the induced generalized weighted Bonferroni mean(I-GWBM) operator. The I-GWBM operator includes many famous aggregation operators for intuitionistic fuzzy sets(IFSs) as special cases. Then, we generalize the I-GWBM operator by using quasi-arithmetic means and propose...

This paper extends the technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) for solving multi-attribute group decision making (MAGDM) problems under triangular intuitionistic fuzzy sets by using its correlation coefficient. In situations where the information or the data is of the form of triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (TIFNs), some arithmetic aggregation operators h...

A new concept to the optimization problem in an intuitionistic fuzzy environment is introduced. A general model, of linear programming problems in which both the right hand side constants and the technological coefficients are intuitionistic fuzzy numbers, has been presented. An attempt has been made to find a general linear non-membership function and intuitionistic fuzzy index together with t...

The aim of this paper is to generalise the concept of intuitionistic fuzzy soft set. Relations on generalised intuitionistic fuzzy soft sets and a few of their algebraic properties are studied. Finally, an adjustable approach to generalised intuitionistic fuzzy soft sets based decision making is presented. 2010 AMS Classification: 54A40

The extension of rough set model is an important research direction in rough set theory. The aim of this paper is to present a new extension. At the first, we introduce a pair of dual intuitionistic fuzzy operators (Θ,Φ). And some important properties are examined about these these operators. Moreover, θ-lower and φ-upper approximation operators are defined, by using the operators, and a novel ...

We propose a method for ranking alternatives represented by Atanassov’s intuitionistic fuzzy sets (A-IFSs) which takes into account not only the amount of information related to an alternative (expressed by a distance from the ideal positive alternative) but also the reliability of information (how sure the information is). We stress (like in our previous papers) that taking into account all th...

In this paper, we introduce four kinds of rough approximations for a given intuitionistic fuzzy set.
