A new concept of the inclusion measure for intuitionistic fuzzy sets is proposed by the axiomatic definition. Also, the distance measures, similarity measures and information entropy are recalled and summarized. Most of important, some relationships among distance measure, information entropy, and inclusion measure of IFSs are then investigated. Finally, we obtain some important theorems by whi...

The entropy of intuitionistic fuzzy sets is used to indicate the degree of fuzziness of an interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy set(IvIFS). In this paper, we deal with the entropies of IvIFSs. Firstly, we propose a set of entropies on IvIFSs with a parameter λ ∈ [0,+∞), which generalizes the entropy measure defined by Gao, for IvIFSs, and then we prove that the new entropy is an increasing func...

In this paper, we first use a fuzzy preference relation with a membership function representing preference degree forcomparing two interval-valued fuzzy numbers and then utilize a relative preference relation improved from the fuzzypreference relation to rank a set of interval-valued fuzzy numbers. Since the fuzzy preference relation is a total orderingrelation that satisfies reciprocal and tra...
