Relations and relation matrices are important concepts in set theory and intelligent computation. Some general uncertainty measures for fuzzy relations are proposed by generalizing Shannon’s information entropy. Then, the proposed measures are used to calculate the diversity quantity of multiple classifier systems and the granularity of granulated problem spaces, respectively. As a diversity me...

In this contribution connections between input fuzzy relations R1, . . . ,Rn on a set X and the output fuzzy relationRF = F(R1, . . . ,Rn) are studied. F is a function of the form F : [0, 1]n → [0, 1] and RF is called an aggregated fuzzyrelation. In the literature the problem of preservation, by a function F, diverse types of properties of fuzzy relationsR1, . . . ,Rn is examined. Here, it is c...

In this paper we consider some properties of intuitionistic fuzzy preference relations. We pay attention to preservation of intuitionistic fuzzy preference relations by aggregation operations. In particular, we know, that a special kind of aggregation operations (lattice operations) do not preserve intuitionistic fuzzy preference relations. We describe the operations which preserve intuitionist...

Similarity measures computed by kernels are well studied and a vast literature is available. In this work, we use distance-based kernels to define a new similarity measure for fuzzy sets. In this sense, a distance-based kernel on fuzzy sets implements a similarity measure for fuzzy sets with a geometric interpretation in functional spaces. When the kernel is positive definite, the similarity me...

Since upper and lower approximations could be induced from the rough set structures, rough sets are considered as approximations. The concept of fuzzy rough sets was proposed by replacing crisp binary relations with fuzzy relations by Dubois and Prade. In this paper, we introduce and investigate some properties of intuitionistic fuzzy rough approximation operators and intuitionistic fuzzy relat...

This paper investigates fuzzy triangle and similarity of fuzzy triangles. Five rules to determine similarity of fuzzy triangles are studied. Extension principle and concept of same and inverse points in fuzzy geometry are used to analyze the proposed concepts.

A fuzzy graph is a symmetric binary fuzzy relation on a fuzzy subset. The concept of fuzzy sets and fuzzy relations was introduced by L.A.Zadeh in 1965cite{zl} and further studiedcite{ka}. It was Rosenfeldcite{ra} who considered fuzzy relations on fuzzy sets and developed the theory of fuzzy graphs in 1975. The concepts of fuzzy trees, blocks, bridges and cut nodes in fuzzy graph has been studi...

The aim of this paper is to study the integration of multiplicative preference relation as a preference representation structure in fuzzy multipurpose decision-making problems. Assuming fuzzy multipurpose decision-making problems under di4erent preference representation structures (ordering, utilities and fuzzy preference relations) and using the fuzzy preference relations as uniform representa...

In this article we present three similarity measures between simplified neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy sets, which contain the concept of single valued neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy sets and interval valued neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy sets, based on the extension of Jaccard similarity measure, Dice similarity measure and Cosine similarity in the vector space. Then based on these three defined simila...

In fuzzy decision problems, the ordering of fuzzy numbers is the basic problem. The fuzzy preference relation is the reasonable representation of preference relations by a fuzzy membership function. This paper studies Nakamura’s and Kołodziejczyk’s preference relations. Eight cases, each representing different levels of overlap between two triangular fuzzy numbers are considered. We analyze the...
