We propose the cosine similarity measures for intuitionistic fuzzy linguistic sets (IFLSs) and interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy linguistic sets (IVIFLSs), which are expressed by the linguistic scale function based on the cosine function. Then, the weighted cosine similarity measure and the ordered weighted cosine similarity measure for IFLSs and IVIFLSs are introduced by taking into account the importance of each element, and the properties of the cosine similarity measures are also given. The main advantage of the proposed cosine similarity measures is that the decision-makers can flexibly select the linguistic scale function depending on the actual semantic situation. Finally, we present the application of the cosine similarity measures for intuitionistic fuzzy linguistic term sets and interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy linguistic term sets to pattern recognition and medical diagnosis, and the existing cosine similarity measures are compared with the proposed cosine similarity measures by the illustrative example.

The intuitionistic fuzzy calculus (IFC), based on the basic operational laws of intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (IFNs), has been put forward. However, the interval-valued IFC (IVIFC), based on the basic operational laws of interval-valued IFNs (IVIFNs), is only in the original stage. To further develop the theory of the IVIFC and make it be rigorous, the primary task is to systematically investigate the characteristics of the limits and differentials, which is a foundation of the IVIFC. Moreover, there is quite a lot of literature on IVIFNs; however, the scholars did not reveal the relationships between IFNs and the IVIFNs. To do that, we first investigate the limit of interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sequences, and then, we focus on investigating the limit, the continuity, and the differential of IVIFFs in detail and reveal their relationships. After that, due to the fact that the IFC and the IVIFC are based on the basic operational laws of IFNs and IVIFNs, respectively, we reveal the relationships between the IFNs and the IVIFNs via some homomorphic mappings. Finally, a case study about continuous data of IVIFNs is provided to illustrate the advantages of continuous data.

AbstractCubic intuitionistic fuzzy sets (CIFSs) are a powerful and relevant medium for expressing imprecise information to solve the decision-making problems. The conspicuous feature of their mathematical concept is that it considers simultaneously the hallmarks of both the intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFSs) and interval-valued IFSs. The present paper is divided into two parts: (i) defining the correlation measures for the CIFSs; (ii) introducing the decision-making algorithm for the CIFS information. Furthermore, few of the fundamental properties of these measures are examined in detail. Based on this, we define a novel algorithm to solve the multi-criteria decision-making process and illustrate numerical examples related to watershed’s hydrological geographical areas, global recruitment problem and so on. A contrastive analysis with several existing studies is also administered to test the effectiveness and verify the proposed method.
