it is well known fact that binary relations are generalized mathematical functions. contrary to functions from domain to range, binary relations may assign to each element of domain two or more elements of range. some basic operations on functions such as the inverse and composition are applicable to binary relations as well. depending on the domain or range or both are fuzzy value fuzzy set, i...

Interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IVIFSs) are widely used to handle uncertainty and imprecision in decision making. However, in more complicated environment, it is difficult to express the uncertain information by an IVIFS with considering the decision-making preference. Hence, this paper proposes a group generalized interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy soft set (G-GIVIFSS) which conta...

In this paper, the Multiple Attribute Group Decision Making (MAGDM) problems is based on the attribute weights calculated from completely unknown information using the Maximal Entropy OWA weights. The interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy ordered weighted averaging (IIFOWA) operator is utilized to aggregate all individual interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy decision matrices provided by the dec...

In this paper we present a study on inference in a Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC). Many different implication operators have been proposed in the Fuzzy Logic literature; we take into account five of them that have already been used in fuzzy control. In order to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of each implication in practical applications, we consider the controller's defuzzified output ...

The goal of this paper is to consider properties of the composition of interval-valued fuzzy relations which were introduced by L.A. Zadeh in 1975. Fuzzy set theory turned out to be a useful tool to describe situations in which the data are imprecise or vague. Interval-valued fuzzy set theory is a generalization of fuzzy set theory which was introduced also by Zadeh in 1965. This paper generali...

A fuzzy logic controller with interval-valued inference mechanism is presented for the control of distributed parameter system (DPS). Interval-valued fuzzy set, a special case of type-2 fuzzy set, is innovatively designed to cope with the spatial information of distributed parameter systems. The proposed fuzzy logic controller is composed of six modules: fuzzifier, fuzzy composition, rules, inf...

In this paper, we investigate the multiple attribute decision making (MADM) problem based on the arithmetic and geometric aggregation operators with interval-valued dual hesitant fuzzy linguistic information. Then, motivated by the ideal of traditional arithmetic operation, we have developed some aggregation operators for aggregating interval-valued dual hesitant fuzzy linguistic information: i...

We introduce the concept of quasi-coincidence of a fuzzy interval value with an interval valued fuzzy set. By using this new idea, we introduce the notions of interval valued (∈,∈ ∨ q)-fuzzy filters of pseudo BL-algebras and investigate some of their related properties. Some characterization theorems of these generalized interval valued fuzzy filters are derived. The relationship among these ge...

In this paper, following the ideas of (continuous) t-norm and interval numbers, a concept of (continuous) interval-valued t-norm is proposed. Based on the interval-valued fuzzy set and the continuous interval-valued t-norm, we propose a notion of interval-valued fuzzy metric space, which is a generalization of fuzzy metric space in the sense of George and Veeramani [Fuzzy Sets and Systems 64 (1...

This paper explores relationships between many-valued logic and fuzzy topology from the viewpoint of duality theory. We first show a fuzzy topological duality for the algebras of Lukasiewicz n-valued logic with truth constants, which generalizes Stone duality for Boolean algebras to the n-valued case via fuzzy topology. Then, based on this duality, we show a fuzzy topological duality for the al...
