We establish relationships between the set of trapezoidal intuitionistic fuzzy numbers and the set of interval-valued trapezoidal fuzzy numbers and, on the other hand, between the set of triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers and the set of triangular fuzzy numbers. Based on these main results of the paper, the methods or procedures elaborated for interval-valued trapezoidal or triangular fuzz...

The notion of interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets was first introduced by Atanassov and Gargov in 1989 as a generalization of both interval-valued fuzzy sets and intuitionistic fuzzy sets. In this paper we first apply the concept of interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets to K-algebras. Then we introduce the notion of interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy ideals (IIFIs, in short) of K-al...

A new accuracy function for the theory of interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy set, which overcomes some difficulties arising in the existing methods for determining rank of interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy numbers, is proposed by taking into account the hesitancy degree of interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets. By comparing it with several proposed accuracy functions, the necessity and...

Molodtsov first proposed the soft set theory, which can be used as a general mathematical tool for dealing with fuzzy and uncertain information. As a generalization of soft set, interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy soft set is another soft set structure,it is a combination of an interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy set and a soft set. The objective of this paper is to study the decision making ...

The evaluation is an important approach to promote the development of the E-Government. Since the rapid development of E-Government in the world, the E-Government performance evaluation has become a hot issue in the academia. In this paper, we develop a new evaluation method for the development of the E-Government based on the interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy set which is a powerful techniq...

In this paper, the problem of measuring the degree of inclusion and similarity measure for two   interval-valued intuitionistic  fuzzy sets is considered. We propose inclusion and similarity measure by using  order on interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets connected with lexicographical order. Moreover, some properties of inclusion and similarity measure and some correlation, between them an...

In this paper, we present the induced generalized intuitionistic fuzzy ordered weighted averaging (IGIFOWA) operator. It is a new aggregation operator that generalized the IFOWA operator, including all the characteristics of both the generalized IFOWA and the induced IFOWA operators. It provides a very general formulation that includes as special cases a wide range of aggregation operators for ...

In this paper the concept of interval valued intuitionistic fuzzy soft set relations (IVIFSS-relations for short) is proposed. Our relations on interval valued intuitionistic fuzzy soft sets is an extension of the relations on intuitionistic fuzzy soft sets, introduced by Mukherjee and Chakraborty in 2009. The basic properties of the IVIFSS-relations are also presented and discussed. It is seen...

Inspired by the idea of multiplicative intuitionistic preference relation (Xia MM et al. Preference relations based on intuitionistic multiplicative information, IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems, 2013, 21(1): 113-133), in this paper, a new preference relation called the interval-valued multiplicative intuitionistic preference relation is developed. It is analyzed the basic operations for inte...

In this paper, we propose new methods to represent interdependence among alternative attributes and experts’ opinions by constructing Choquet integral using interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy numbers. In the sequel, we apply these methods to solve the multiple attribute group decision-making (MAGDM) problems under interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy environment. First, the concept of interva...
