Using soft product operations...

Neutrosophic sets was defined by Smarandache, which is a generalized of fuzzy sets and intuitionistic fuzzy sets. A single valued neutrosophic set is an instance of neutrosophic sets defined by Wang et al. (2005). In this study, we introduce similarity measure on two single valued neutrosophic sets. We develop an entropy of single valued neutrosophic sets. Finally, we give an example which demo...

Abstract Convexity is a deeply studied concept since it very useful in many fields of mathematics, like optimization. When we deal with imprecision, the convexity required as well and some important applications can be found fuzzy optimization, particular sets. In this paper have extended notion for interval-valued sets order to able cover wider area imprecision. We show its interesting propert...

The relationship between the intuitionistic fuzzy sets and the algebraic hyperstructures is described in this paper. The concept of the quasi-coincidence of an intuitionistic fuzzy interval valued with an interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy set is introduced and this is a natural generalization of the quasi-coincidence of an intuitionistic fuzzy point in intuitionistic fuzzy sets. By using thi...

Single valued neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy set has three independent parts, namely the truth membership hesitancy function, indeterminacy membership hesitancy function, and falsity membership hesitancy function, which are in the form of sets that assume values in the unit interval [0, 1]. Single valued neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy set is considered as a powerful tool to express uncertain, incompl...

Lattice-valued up-sets and down-sets of a poset are investigated under the cutworthy approach. It is proved that the collections of all lattice valued up-sets and down-sets of a given poset are complete lattices under fuzzy inclusion. Properties of these are investigated. For a given collection of crisp up-sets of a poset, necessary and sufficient conditions are given under which the family rep...

Grey systems and interval valued fuzzy sets appear to be similar concepts. This abstract provides a brief introduction to grey systems and compares them to interval valued fuzzy sets. We argue that grey system is similar to an interval fuzzy set, but has different properties. Grey systems focus on the interval range of the system property itself, but interval fuzzy sets consider the fuzzy membe...

This paper demonstrates twometa-mathematical propositions concerning the increasingly popular “intuitionistic” (= vague) approaches to fuzzy sets and fuzzy topology, as well as the closely related interval-valued (= grey) sets and interval-valued “intuitionistic” sets: (1) the term “intuitionistic” in these contexts is historically inappropriate given the standard mathematical usage of “intuiti...

In this article we define some aggregation operators for bipolar-valued hesitant fuzzy sets. These operations include bipolar-valued hesitant fuzzy ordered weighted averaging (BPVHFOWA) operator, bipolar-valued hesitant fuzzy ordered weighted geometric (BPVHFOWG) operator and their generalized forms. We also define hybrid aggregation operators and their generalized forms and solved a decision-m...

In recent decades, several types of sets, such as fuzzy sets, interval-valued fuzzy sets, intuitionistic fuzzy sets, interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets, type 2 fuzzy sets, type n fuzzy sets, and hesitant fuzzy sets, have been introduced and investigated widely. In this paper, we propose dual hesitant fuzzy sets DHFSs , which encompass fuzzy sets, intuitionistic fuzzy sets, hesitant fuzzy...
