In this paper, a novel similarity measure for interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets is introduced, which is based on the transformed interval-valued intuitionistic triangle fuzzy numbers. Its superiority is shown by comparing the proposed similarity measure with some existing similarity measures by some numerical examples. Furthermore, the proposed similarity measure is applied to deal with pattern recognition and medical diagnosis problems.

The measurement of uncertainty is an important topic for the theories dealing with uncertainty. The definition of similarity measure between two IFSs is one of the most interesting topics in IFSs theory. A similarity measure is defined to compare the information carried by IFSs. Many similarity measures have been proposed. A few of them come from the well-known distance measures. In this work, a new similarity measure between IFSs was proposed by the consideration of the information carried by the membership degree, the non-membership degree, and hesitancy degree in intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFSs). To demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed similarity measure, various similarity measures between IFSs were compared with the proposed similarity measure between IFSs by numerical examples. The compared results demonstrated that the new similarity measure is reasonable and has stronger discrimination among them. Finally, the similarity measure was applied to pattern recognition and medical diagnosis. Two illustrative examples were provided to show the effectiveness of the pattern recognition and medical diagnosis.

Atanassov’S Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets

This work addresses the issue of similarity measures between two temporal complex Atanassov’s intuitionistic fuzzy sets, many measures of similarity between complex Atanassov’s intuitionistic fuzzy sets. What was proposed before did not consider the abstention group influence, which may lead to counterintuitive results in some cases. A new structure of temporal complex Atanassov’s intuitionistic fuzzy sets is obtained. This set is formally generalized from a conventional Atanassov’s intuitionistic complex fuzzy sets. Here we analyze the limitations of the existing similarity measures. Then, a new similarity measure of temporal complex Atanassov’s intuitionistic fuzzy sets is proposed and several numeric examples are given to demonstrate the validity of the proposed measure. Finally, the proposed similarity measure is applied to pattern recognition and medical diagnosis.

An essential topic of interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets(IVIFSs) is distance measures. In this paper, we introduce a new kind of distance measures on IVIFSs. The novelty of our method lies in that we consider the width of intervals so that the uncertainty of outputs is strongly associated with the uncertainty of inputs. In addition, better than the distance measures given by predecessors, we define a new quaternary function on IVIFSs to construct the above-mentioned distance measures, which called interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy dissimilarity function. Two specific methods for building the quaternary functions are proposed. Moreover, we also analyzed the degradation of the distance measures in this paper, and show that our measures can perfectly cover the measures on a simpler set. Finally, we provide illustrative examples in pattern recognition and medical diagnosis problems to confirm the effectiveness and advantages of the proposed distance measures.

We present dynamic interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets (DIVIFS), which can improve the recognition accuracy when they are applied to pattern recognition. By analyzing the degree of hesitancy, we propose some DIVIFS models from intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFS) and interval-valued IFS (IVIFS). And then we present a novel ranking condition on the distance of IFS and IVIFS and introduce some distance measures of DIVIFS satisfying the ranking condition. Finally, a pattern recognition example applied to medical diagnosis decision making is given to demonstrate the application of DIVIFS and its distances. The simulation results show that the DIVIFS method is more comprehensive and flexible than the IFS method and the IVIFS method.

Axiomatic Definition

As a generation of ordinary fuzzy set, the concept of intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS), characterized both by a membership degree and by a nonmembership degree, is a more flexible way to cope with the uncertainty. Similarity measures of intuitionistic fuzzy sets are used to indicate the similarity degree between intuitionistic fuzzy sets. Although many similarity measures for intuitionistic fuzzy sets have been proposed in previous studies, some of those cannot satisfy the axioms of similarity or provide counterintuitive cases. In this paper, a new similarity measure and weighted similarity measure between IFSs are proposed. It proves that the proposed similarity measures satisfy the properties of the axiomatic definition for similarity measures. Comparison between the previous similarity measures and the proposed similarity measure indicates that the proposed similarity measure does not provide any counterintuitive cases. Moreover, it is demonstrated that the proposed similarity measure is capable of discriminating difference between patterns.

Interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy environment is appropriate for most of the practical scenarios involving uncertainty, vagueness, and insufficient information. Entropy, similarity, distance, inclusion, and cross entropy measures are a few methods used for measuring uncertainty and classifying fuzzy sets and its generalizations. Entropy of a fuzzy set describes fuzziness degree of the set and similarity measure measures similarity between two fuzzy or members of its extended family. This paper presents generalized entropy and similarity measures for interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets. Further, the proposed similarity measure is compared with some existing measure of similarity with the help of an illustrative example, and a method is used to define optimal point using the existing information. Finally, entropy and similarity measures are used to identify best alternatives to solve multi-attribute decision making.

A similarity measure is a measure that indicates the degree of similarity between two objects. The purpose of this work is to investigate the monotonicity properties and applications of similarity measures on interval-valued fuzzy sets. Through analyzing the intuitions of similarities, three kinds of monotonic similarity measures are defined. Furthermore, their properties and relationships with entropy and inclusion measure are investigated and discussed. Finally, some applications of the proposed monotonic similarity measures, such as pattern recognition, medical recognition, and medical diagnosis are presented.

AbstractThe issue of similarity measures of intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFSs) is considered in this paper. Many existing similarity measures for two IFSs fail to take the abstention group influence into consideration and may lead to counterintuitive results in some cases. To deal with the problem, this paper first discusses the limitations of the existing similarity measures by some numerical examples, then, by considering the influence of abstention group, a new similarity measure of intuitionistic fuzzy sets is proposed, and the same numerical examples are given to demonstrate the validity of the proposed measure. Finally, the proposed similarity measure is applied to pattern recognition, multicriteria group decision making, and medical diagnosis.
