An Overview of Distance and Similarity Measures of Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets

Abstract: The Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets (IFSs), originated by Atanassov [1], is a useful tool to deal with vagueness and ambiguity. In the short time since their first appearance, many different distance and similarity measures of IFSs have been proposed, but they are scattered through the literature. In this paper, we give a comprehensive overview of distance and similarity measures of IFSs. Based on the weighted Hamming distance, the weighted Euclidean distance, and the weighted Hausdorff distance, respectively, we de… Show more

“…The normalized Minkowski distance is a distance measure [29][30][31][32][33][34] that generalizes a wide range of distances such as the normalized Hamming distance and the normalized Euclidean distance. In fuzzy set theory, it can be useful, for example, for the calculation of distances between fuzzy sets, interval-valued fuzzy sets, intuitionistic fuzzy sets, etc.…”

“…Although various types of distance measures between IFSs were proposed over the past several years and most of them satisfies the distance axioms (Definition 5), some unreasonable cases can still be found [31,32]. For example, consider three single-element IFSs = ( , 0.4, 0.2), = ( , 0.5, 0.3), and = ( , 0.5, 0.2).…”

“…To some extent, the amount of computation is increased, and the results are not concise as the crisp value obtained by distance measure. Also, some researchers [30][31][32] reviewed existing distance and similarity measures between IFSs and tested them with an artificial benchmark. The result showed that many existing distance measures generate counterintuitive cases and fail to capture waver, the lack of knowledge, which should have been an advantage of IFSs.…”

“…Since the introduction of intuitionistic fuzzy sets proposed by Atanassov [28], the intuitionistic fuzzy decision-making has become a promising topic [29,30]. Intuitionistic linguistic variables [31] are discussed in the decision-making process, and the distance and similarity measures of intuitionistic fuzzy sets [32] are presented. In order to extend uncertain theory and develop its applications, Pei [33] introduced intuitionistic fuzzy variables and developed outranking methods for evaluating intuitionistic fuzzy variables.…”
