Powerset structures of extensional fuzzy sets in sets with similarity relations are investigated. It is proved that extensional fuzzy sets have powerset structures which are powerset theories in the category of sets with similarity relations, and some of these powerset theories are defined also by algebraic theories (monads). Between Zadeh's fuzzy powerset theory and the classical powerset theo...

In this paper, newly defined level operators and modal-like operators over extensional generalized intuitionistic fuzzy sets (GIFSB) are proposed. Some of the basic properties of the new operators are discussed.

This paper addresses uncertainty modelling of shorelines by comparing fuzzy sets and random sets. Both methods quantify extensional uncertainty of shorelines extracted from remote sensing images. Two datasets were tested: pan-sharpened Pleiades with four bands (Pleiades) and pan-sharpened Pleiades stacked with elevation data as the fifth band (Pleiades + DTM). Both fuzzy sets and random sets mo...

Images of fuzzy sets under fuzzy relations have been investigated mainly in two contexts: On the one hand, mostly under the term “full image” [5], they can be regarded as very general tools for fuzzy inference, leading to the so-called “compositional rule of inference” [1, 5]. On the other hand, under the term “extensional hull”, the image of a fuzzy set under a fuzzy equivalence relation yield...

In this state-of-the-art paper, important advances that have been made during the past five years for both general and interval type-2 fuzzy sets and systems are described. Interest in type-2 subjects is worldwide and touches on a broad range of applications and many interesting theoretical topics. The main focus of this paper is on the theoretical topics, with descriptions of what they are, wh...

in this work, we define a fuzzy soft set theory and its related properties. we then define fuzzy soft aggregation operator that allows constructing more efficient decision making method. finally, we give an example which shows that the method can be successfully applied to many problems that contain uncertainties.

We reformulate Mesiar’s hypothesis [Possibility measures, integration and fuzzy possibility measures, Fuzzy Sets and Systems 92 (1997) 191196], which as such was shown to be untrue by Murofushi [Two-valued possibility measures induced by σ-finite σ-additive measures, Fuzzy Sets and Systems 126 (2002) 265268]. We prove that a two-valued σ-maxitive measure can be induced by a σ-additive measure u...

It is shown that, for any spatial frame L (i.e., L is a complete lattice generated by the set of all prime elements), both the specialization L-preorder of L-topological spaces introduced by Lai and Zhang [Fuzzy preorder and fuzzy topology, Fuzzy Sets and Systems 157 (2006) 1865–1885] and that of L-fuzzifying topological spaces introduced by Fang and Qiu [Fuzzy orders and fuzzifying topologies,...

Many of the new MV-valued fuzzy structures, including intuitionistic, neutrosophic, or soft sets, can be transformed into so-called almost or, equivalently, sets with values in dual pair semirings (in symbols, (R,R*)-fuzzy sets). This transformation allows any construction to retransformed an analogous for these structures. In that way, approximation theories rough theories, F-transform have al...
