The problem of decision making under imprecise environments are widely spread in real life decision situations. We present a method of object recognition from imprecise multi observer data, which extends the work of Roy and Maji [J. Compu. Appl. Math. 203(2007) 412-418] to generalized intuitionistic fuzzy soft set theory. The method involves the construction of a comparison table from a general...

As an emerging area considering behavioral aspects of decision making, target-oriented decision model lies in the philosophical root of bounded rationality as well as represents the S-shaped value function. This paper deals with multi-attribute decision analysis from target-oriented viewpoint. First, the basic (random) target-oriented decision model is extended to involve three types of target ...

Abstract A new technique for adaptation of fuzzy membership functions in a fuzzy inference system is proposed. The technique relies upon the isolation of the specific membership function that contributed to the final decision, followed by the updating of this function’s parameters using steepest descent. The error measure used is thus back propagated from output to input, through the min and ma...

We have defined fuzzy bipolar soft sets and basic operations of union, intersection and complementation for fuzzy bipolar soft sets. The algebraic properties of fuzzy bipolar soft sets are discussed. The concept of bipolar fuzzy soft set is also given and the equivalence of both structures is established. An application of fuzzy bipolar soft sets in decision making problems is presented with th...

A new technique for adaptation of fuzzy membership functions in a fuzzy inference system is proposed. The pointer technique relies upon the isolation of the specific membership functions that contributed to the final decision, followed by the updating of these functions’ parameters using steepest descent. The error measure used is thus backpropagated from output to input, through the min and ma...

The Fuzzy Modeling has been applied in a wide variety of fields such as Engineering and Management Sciences and Social Sciences to solve a number Decision Making Problems which involve impreciseness, uncertainty and vagueness in data. In particular, applications of this Modeling technique in Decision Making Problems have remarkable significance. These problems have been tackled using various th...

In 2011 Alkhazaleh and Salleh defined the concept of soft expert sets where the user can know the opinion of all the experts in one model and give an application of this concept in decision-making problems. Also, they introduced the concept of the fuzzy soft expert set as a combination between the soft expert set and the fuzzy set. In 2010 Majumdar and Samanta presented the concept of a general...

In this paper, the Cartesian products on fuzzy soft set are defined, and the fuzzy soft relations can be presented based on the Cartesian products, including uni-int decision relation and level fuzzy soft relation. By using these new concepts an unt-int decision making method based on fuzzy soft set is constructed to selects a fuzzy set of optimum elements from the alternatives. Finally, an exa...

The concept of intuitionistic fuzzy sets is the generalization of the concept of fuzzy sets. The theory of intuitionistic fuzzy sets is well suited to dealing with vagueness. Recently, intuitionistic fuzzy sets have been used to build soft decision making models that can accommodate imprecise information, and two solution concepts about the intuitionistic fuzzy core and the consensus winner for...
