An approach to decision making based on intuitionistic fuzzy rough sets over two universes

Rough set theory has been combined with intuitionistic fuzzy sets in dealing with uncertainty decision making. This paper proposes a general decision-making framework based on the intuitionistic fuzzy rough set model over two universes. We first present the intuitionistic fuzzy rough set model over two universes with a constructive approach and discuss the basic properties of this model. We then give a new approach of decision making in uncertainty environment by using the intuitionistic fuzzy rough sets over two universes. Further, the principal steps of the decision method established in this paper are presented in detail. Finally, an example of handling medical diagnosis problem illustrates this approach.     

On characterization of generalized interval-valued fuzzy rough sets on two universes of discourse

This paper proposes a general study of (I,T)-interval-valued fuzzy rough sets on two universes of discourse integrating the rough set theory with the interval-valued fuzzy set theory by constructive and axiomatic approaches. Some primary properties of interval-valued fuzzy logical operators and the construction approaches of interval-valued fuzzy T-similarity relations are first introduced. Determined by an interval-valued fuzzy triangular norm and an interval-valued fuzzy implicator, a pair of lower and upper generalized interval-valued fuzzy rough approximation operators with respect to an arbitrary interval-valued fuzzy relation on two universes of discourse is then defined. Properties of I-lower and T-upper interval-valued fuzzy rough approximation operators are examined based on the properties of interval-valued fuzzy logical operators discussed above. Connections between interval-valued fuzzy relations and interval-valued fuzzy rough approximation operators are also established. Finally, an operator-oriented characterization of interval-valued fuzzy rough sets is proposed, that is, interval-valued fuzzy rough approximation operators are characterized by axioms. Different axiom sets of I-lower and T-upper interval-valued fuzzy set-theoretic operators guarantee the existence of different types of interval-valued fuzzy relations which produce the same operators.

区间犹豫模糊ELECTRE多属性决策方法及应用

近年来,多属性决策问题一直是广大学者研究的重点,然而基于ELECTRE方法的区间犹豫模糊多属性决策问题的研究并不多见。因此,结合区间犹豫模糊集的信息表达优势和ELECTRE方法的思想,提出了一种区间犹豫模糊ELECTRE(IVHF ELECTRE)多属性决策新方法。首先构造了区间犹豫模糊决策矩阵,引入得分函数和可能度的概念,构造属性优势集和属性劣势集。然后通过设定阈值得到综合优先判定矩阵,从而得到各方案间的优先顺序。为了进一步得到各方案的整体排序,引入TOPSIS方法,通过计算各方案与正负理想点的相对距离来构造综合优先矩阵,从而得到各方案的总体排序。最后通过具体实例验证了该方法的可行性和合理性。     

NMGRS: Neighborhood-based multigranulation rough sets

Recently, a multigranulation rough set (MGRS) has become a new direction in rough set theory, which is based on multiple binary relations on the universe. However, it is worth noticing that the original MGRS can not be used to discover knowledge from information systems with various domains of attributes. In order to extend the theory of MGRS, the objective of this study is to develop a so-called neighborhood-based multigranulation rough set (NMGRS) in the framework of multigranulation rough sets. Furthermore, by using two different approximating strategies, i.e., seeking common reserving difference and seeking common rejecting difference, we first present optimistic and pessimistic 1-type neighborhood-based multigranulation rough sets and optimistic and pessimistic 2-type neighborhood-based multigranulation rough sets, respectively. Through analyzing several important properties of neighborhood-based multigranulation rough sets, we find that the new rough sets degenerate to the original MGRS when the size of neighborhood equals zero. To obtain covering reducts under neighborhood-based multigranulation rough sets, we then propose a new definition of covering reduct to describe the smallest attribute subset that preserves the consistency of the neighborhood decision system, which can be calculated by Chen’s discernibility matrix approach. These results show that the proposed NMGRS largely extends the theory and application of classical MGRS in the context of multiple granulations.     

Some formal relationships among soft sets,fuzzy sets,and their extensions

We prove that every hesitant fuzzy set on a set E can be considered either a soft set over the universe $[0,1]$ or a soft set over the universe E. Concerning converse relationships, for denumerable universes we prove that any soft set can be considered even a fuzzy set. Relatedly, we demonstrate that every hesitant fuzzy soft set can be identified with a soft set, thus a formal coincidence of both notions is brought to light. Coupled with known relationships, our results prove that interval type-2 fuzzy sets and interval-valued fuzzy sets can be considered as soft sets over the universe $[0,1]$. Altogether we contribute to a more complete understanding of the relationships among various theories that capture vagueness and imprecision.     

A fuzzy rough set approach to emergency material demand prediction over two universes

Emergency decision-making is still an important issue of unconventional emergency events management. Although many studies are developed on this topic, they remain political and qualitative, and it is difficult to make them operational in practice. Therefore, this article considers a fuzzy rough set over two universes model and approach for solving such a difficulty. As is well known, an exact and scientific emergency material demand prediction can make a quick and efficient emergency rescue and realize the optimal effect. Considering the main characteristics of emergency decision-making with insufficient risk identification, incomplete and inaccuracy of available information and uncertainty of decision-making environment, the fuzzy rough set theory over two universes is used to emergency material demand prediction. We propose a model and approach to emergency material demand prediction, i.e., the fuzzy rough set model of emergency material demand prediction over two universes. We present decision rules and computing methods for the proposed model by using the risk decision-making principle of classical operational research. Finally, the validity of the approach and the applied process of the proposed model is tested by a numerical example with the background of earthquake emergency material demand forecasting.     

Correlation coefficients of hesitant fuzzy sets and their applications to clustering analysis

Hesitant fuzzy sets (HFSs), which allow the membership degree of an element to a set represented by several possible values, can be considered as a powerful tool to express uncertain information in the process of group decision making. We derive some correlation coefficient formulas for HFSs and apply them to clustering analysis under hesitant fuzzy environments. Two real world examples, i.e. software evaluation and classification as well as the assessment of business failure risk, are employed to illustrate the actual need of the clustering algorithm based on HFSs, which can incorporate the difference of evaluation information provided by different experts in clustering processes. In order to extend the application domain of the clustering algorithm in the framework of HFSs, we develop the interval-valued HFSs and the corresponding correlation coefficient formulas, and then demonstrate their application in clustering with interval-valued hesitant fuzzy information through a specific numerical example.     

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.

Design of an active fault tolerant control system for a simulated industrial steam turbine

An active fault tolerant control (FTC) scheme is proposed in this paper to accommodate for an industrial steam turbine faults based on integration of a data-driven fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) module and an adaptive generalized predictive control (GPC) approach. The FDD module uses a fusion-based methodology to incorporate a multi-attribute feature via a support vector machine (SVM) and adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) classifiers. In the GPC formulation, an adaptive configuration of its internal model has been devised to capture the faulty model for the set of internal steam turbine faults. To handle the most challenging faults, however, the GPC control configuration is modified via its weighting factors to demand for satisfactory control recovery with less vigorous control actions. The proposed FTC scheme is hence able to systematically maintain early FDD with efficient fault accommodation against faults jeopardizing the steam turbine availability. Extensive simulation tests are conducted to explore the effectiveness of the proposed FTC performances in response to different categories of steam turbine fault scenarios.     

Interval-valued level cut sets of fuzzy set

The connections between Zadeh fuzzy set and three-valued fuzzy set are established in this paper. The concepts of interval-valued level cut sets on Zadeh fuzzy set are presented and new decomposition theorems and representation theorems of Zadeh fuzzy set are established based on new cut sets. Firstly, four interval-valued level cut sets on Zadeh fuzzy set are defined as three-valued fuzzy sets and it is shown that the interval-valued level cut sets of Zadeh fuzzy set are generalizations of normal cut sets on Zadeh fuzzy set, and have the same properties as those of normal cut sets of Zadeh fuzzy set. Secondly, the new decomposition theorems are established based on these new cut sets. It is pointed out that each kind of interval-valued level cut sets corresponds to two decomposition theorems. Thus eight decomposition theorems are obtained. Finally, the definitions of three-valued inverse order nested sets and three-valued order nested sets are presented with eight representation theorems based on new nested sets.
