a new approach to define the similarity measure betweeninterval-valued fuzzy sets is presented. the proposed approach isbased on a weighted measure in which the normalized similaritiesbetween lower functions and also between upper functions arecombined by a weight parameter. the properties of this similaritymeasure are investigated. it is shown that, the proposed measurehas some advantages in c...

In this work, we use a notion of convexificator [25] together with the support function [3, 4, 15, 16, 41] to establish necessary optimality conditions for set valued bilevel optimization problems. Fortunately, the Lipschitz property of a set-valued mapping is conserved for its support function. An intermediate set-valued optimization problem is introduced to help us in our investigation.

we develop a theory of stratified $lm$-filters which generalizes the theory of stratified $l$-filters. our stratification condition explicitly depends on a suitable mapping between the lattices $l$ and $m$. if $l$ and $m$ are identical and the mapping is the identity mapping, then we obtain the theory of stratified $l$-filters. based on the stratified $lm$-filters, a general theory of lattice-v...

In this paper, we take a GL-quantale as the truth value table to study a new rough set model—L-valued fuzzy rough sets. The three key components of this model are: an L-fuzzy set A as the universal set, an L-valued relation of A and an L-fuzzy set of A (a fuzzy subset of fuzzy sets). Then L-valued fuzzy rough sets are completely characterized via both constructive and axiomatic approaches.
