In this paper, we present two new methods for evaluating students’ answerscripts based on the similarity measure between vague sets. The vague marks awarded to the answers in the students’ answerscripts are represented by vague sets, where each element ui in the universe of discourse U belonging to a vague set is represented by a vague value. The grade of membership of ui in the vague set à is ...

In order to model the real world with imprecise and uncertain information, various extensions of the classical relational data model have been studied in literature using fuzzy set theory. However, vague set, as a generalized fuzzy set, has more powerful ability to process fuzzy information than fuzzy set. In this paper, we have proposed a vague relational database model and have defined a new ...

A new approach for vague risk analysis based on the ranking of trapezoidal vague sets is proposed. Firstly, a new method for ranking of vague sets is presented. Then, the proposed method is applied to developed a new method for dealing with vague risk analysis problems. This analysis helps us to find out the probability of failure of each components of combustion system, which could be used for...

Current implementations of spatial databases are not capable of handling data that is intrinsically indeterminate or vague. The goal of the Vague Spatial Algebra (VASA) project is to define concepts and implementations that will address this problem. In this paper we further develop work on topological predicates between vague spatial objects. The new developments make use of spatial reasoning ...
