Bell-shaped Fuzzy Soft Sets and Their Application in Medical Diagnosis

A soft set theory is a new general mathematical tool to dealing with imprecision. The theory differs from traditional mathematical tools to dealing with uncertainties in which many mathematical theories failed. In this paper, we proposed the concept of Bell shaped fuzzy soft set and its application in medical diagnosis using arithmetic operations of discrete- Gaussian fuzzy number, triangular-Cauchy fuzzy number and Gaussian-Cauchy fuzzy number. As an integral part of this paper, we discuss the parametric form of Gaussian membership function is discussed with some important properties.     

Some similarity measures of intuitionistic fuzzy sets and their applications to multiple attribute decision making

Atanassov (1986) defined the notion of intuitionistic fuzzy set, which is a generalization of the notion of Zadeh’ fuzzy set. In this paper, we first develop some similarity measures of intuitionistic fuzzy sets. Then, we define the notions of positive ideal intuitionistic fuzzy set and negative ideal intuitionistic fuzzy set. Finally, we apply the similarity measures to multiple attribute decision making under intuitionistic fuzzy environment.     

Bijective soft set decision system based parameters reduction under fuzzy environments

Gong et al. (2010) and Xiao et al. (2010) have proposed the notion of bijective soft set and exclusive disjunctive soft set, respectively, which is a subtype of soft set. On the basis of their work, this paper extends these notions to fuzzy environments, and formulates the concept of bijective fuzzy soft set, which can deal with more uncertain problems. Moreover, this paper proposes two parameters reduction algorithms: one (Algorithm 1) is based on bijective fuzzy soft system, and the other (Algorithm 2) takes weight of an element into consideration. Since the threshold plays an important role in these algorithms, we proposed an algorithm (Algorithm 3) to decide the optimal value of threshold specially. Afterwards, an example analysis of the two parameters reduction algorithms is given and the result shows that the two algorithms lead to the same parameters reduction of a bijective fuzzy soft system. Since Algorithm 2 considers the detail weights of elements, thus it can be used in more uncertain problems, such as time series analysis problems, than Algorithm 1.     

A fuzzy rule-based system for handwritten Chinese characters recognition based on radical extraction

In this paper, a fuzzy rule-based system for handwritten Chinese characters recognition (HCCR) based on radical extraction is proposed. Since the writings of handwritten Chinese characters vary a lot, we adopt fuzzy set theory to deal with the recognition of these fuzzy patterns. Candidates of strokes are provided with confidence values to obtain more reliable and accurate results. Furthermore, hierarchical fuzzy rule sets that represent the character structures are used to combine the extracted strokes into compound strokes or radicals. The flexible expansion ability thus provided is very promising. Also, since the number of rules in a fuzzy system is much less than that in a general rule-based system, the computation effort is not difficult. An average of 99.63% recognition rate of 542 test categories that are selected from the 100th sample set of HCCRBASE (character image database provided by CCL, ITRI, Taiwan) is obtained. The experimental results not only verify the feasibility of the proposed system, but also suggest that applying fuzzy set theory to HCCR is an efficient and promising approach.     

An adjustable approach to fuzzy soft set based decision making

Molodtsov’s soft set theory was originally proposed as a general mathematical tool for dealing with uncertainty. Recently, decision making based on (fuzzy) soft sets has found paramount importance. This paper aims to give deeper insights into decision making based on fuzzy soft sets. We discuss the validity of the Roy-Maji method and show its true limitations. We point out that the choice value designed for the crisp case is no longer fit to solve decision making problems involving fuzzy soft sets. By means of level soft sets, we present an adjustable approach to fuzzy soft set based decision making and give some illustrative examples. Moreover, the weighted fuzzy soft set is introduced and its application to decision making is also investigated.

PRECOMPACTNESS IN FUZZY UNIFORM SPACES

Abstract

The notion of a precompact fuzzy set in a fuzzy uniform space is defined and it is shown that this is a good extension of the standard notion. A theory of precompact fuzzy sets is developed using the previously defined notion of a Cauchy prefilter in a fuzzy uniform space and this theory generalises standard theory.     

A novel approach to interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy soft set based decision making

The soft set theory, originally proposed by Molodtsov, can be used as a general mathematical tool for dealing with uncertainty. The interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy soft set is a combination of an interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy set and a soft set. The aim of this paper is to investigate the decision making based on interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy soft sets. By means of level soft sets, we develop an adjustable approach to interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy soft sets based decision making and some numerical examples are provided to illustrate the developed approach. Furthermore, we also define the concept of the weighted interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy soft set and apply it to decision making.     

Finding an inner estimation of the solution set of a fuzzy linear system

In this paper, we consider the problem of finding an inner estimation of the solution set of a fuzzy linear system with a real-valued coefficient matrix and a fuzzy-valued right-hand side vector. The proposed idea is based on the utilization of interval Gaussian elimination procedure to produce an inner estimation of the solutions set. To this end, firstly we apply interval Gaussian elimination procedure to obtain the solution set of a fuzzy linear system and secondly, by limiting it via solving a crisp linear system, we find an inner estimation of the solutions set, such that it satisfies the related fuzzy linear system. Finally, several numerical examples are given to show the efficiency and ability of our method.

Triangular norms which are meet-morphisms in interval-valued fuzzy set theory

In this paper we study t-norms on the lattice of closed subintervals of the unit interval. Unlike for t-norms on a product lattice for which there exists a straightforward characterization of t-norms which are join-morphisms, respectively meet-morphisms, the situation is more complicated for t-norms in interval-valued fuzzy set theory. In previous papers several characterizations were given of t-norms in interval-valued fuzzy set theory which are join-morphisms and which satisfy additional properties, but little attention has been paid to meet-morphisms. Therefore, in this paper, we focus on t-norms which are meet-morphisms. We consider a general class of t-norms and investigate under which conditions t-norms belonging to this class are meet-morphisms. We also characterize the t-norms which are both a join- and a meet-morphism and which satisfy an additional border condition.

A novel approach to multi attribute group decision making based on trapezoidal interval type-2 fuzzy soft sets

Soft set theory, originally proposed by Molodtsov, has become an effective mathematical tool to deal with uncertainty. A type-2 fuzzy set, which is characterized by a fuzzy membership function, can provide us with more degrees of freedom to represent the uncertainty and the vagueness of the real world. Interval type-2 fuzzy sets are the most widely used type-2 fuzzy sets. In this paper, we first introduce the concept of trapezoidal interval type-2 fuzzy numbers and present some arithmetic operations between them. As a special case of interval type-2 fuzzy sets, trapezoidal interval type-2 fuzzy numbers can express linguistic assessments by transforming them into numerical variables objectively. Then, by combining trapezoidal interval type-2 fuzzy sets with soft sets, we propose the notion of trapezoidal interval type-2 fuzzy soft sets. Furthermore, some operations on trapezoidal interval type-2 fuzzy soft sets are defined and their properties are investigated. Finally, by using trapezoidal interval type-2 fuzzy soft sets, we propose a novel approach to multi attribute group decision making under interval type-2 fuzzy environment. A numerical example is given to illustrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method.
