It is generally accepted that knowledge based systems would be smarter and more robust if they can manage inconsistent, incomplete or imprecise knowledge. This paper is about a four-valued fuzzy propositional logic, which is the result of the combination of a four-valued logic and a fuzzy propositional logic. Besides the nice computational properties, the logic enables us also to deal both with...

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...

The aim of this paper is to introduce the notions of interval valued (∈,∈ ∨q)-fuzzy Boolean (implicative, positive implicative and fantastic) filters in BL-algebras and to investigate some related properties. Some characterizations of these generalized fuzzy filters are derived. Finally, the relations among these generalized fuzzy filters are discussed. It is proved that an interval valued (∈,∈...

The notion of uncertainty in expert systems is dealing with vague data, incomplete information, and imprecise knowledge. Different uncertainty types which are imprecision, vagueness, ambiguity, and inconsistence need different handling models. Uncertain knowledge representation and analysis is an essential issue. Classical probability, Bayes theory, Dempster–Shafer theory, certainty factor and ...

The Multiple Attribute Group Decision Making (MAGDM) problems are investigated in which all the information provided by the decision-makers is presented as interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy decision matrices, and the information about attribute weights is partially known. Three different models are utilized for calculating the completely unknown attribute weights which are then used for aggr...

The concept of quasi-coincidence of an interval-valued fuzzy set is considered. By using this new idea, the notion of interval-valued (α, β)−fuzzy k−ideals of semirings is introduced, which is a generalization of a fuzzy k−ideal. Also some related properties are studied and in particular, the interval-valued (∈,∈ ∨q)−fuzzy k−ideals in a semiring will be investigated. Finally, the concept of imp...

On the basis of the combination of single-valued neutrosophic sets and hesitant fuzzy sets, this article proposes a single-valued neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy set (SVNHFS) as a further generalization of the concepts of fuzzy set, intuitionistic fuzzy set, single-valued neutrosophic set, hesitant fuzzy set, and dual hesitant fuzzy set. Then, we introduce the basic operational relations and cosine...

Fuzzy valued measure ([7], [10], [3], [5]) is a natural generalization of a set valued measure ([6]). Infinite addition is defined ([12]) as a Zadeh’s extension principle of continuity. In [9], using an additive fuzzy valued measure, an integral of single valued function is defined and some basic properties are given. In this paper we proceed to investigate specific properties of integrals in f...

Interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IVIFSs), a generalization of fuzzy sets, is characterized by an interval-valued membership function, an interval-valued non-membership function.The objective of this paper is to deal with criteria aggregation problems using IVIFSs where there exists a prioritization relationship over the criteria.Based on the ${L}$ukasiewicz triangular norm, we first p...

d Department of Mathematics and Statistics, University of Swat, Swat, Khyber Pakhtoonkhwa, Pakistan ABSTRACT The concept of interval-valued fuzzy set is one of the most important and useful generalisation of Zadeh's fuzzy sets which is successfully applied by engineers and scientists in the field of Robotics, Control Theory and Computer Engineering. In this paper, we introduce new and useful ge...
