Mathematical Models of Diagnostic Information Granules Generated by Scaling Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets

Abstract

The paper presents a certain class of the mathematical models of diagnostic information granules describing the fuzzy symptoms-faults relationship. A certain fuzzy diagnostic information retrieval system is described as an application of an expert diagnostic system. Symptoms and faults are fuzzy, and with some scaling of the symptom-fault concept pair values. These value pairs can be considered as intuitionistic fuzzy sets for the space of diagnosed objects. In this article, for scaling intuitionistic fuzzy sets (n-ScIFS), the deductive theory is formulated. There the intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFSs) and the Pythagorean fuzzy sets (PFSs) are generalized to the n-ScIFS objects. The membership and non-membership values, as standard, can be described by the 1:1 scale or the quadratic function scale. However, any power scale n>2 can be used. In this paper, any n-Sc scaling functions retaining the IFSs properties are considered. The n-ScIFS theory introduces a conceptual apparatus analogous to the classical theory of Zadeh fuzzy sets and Yager PFSs, consistently striving, for the first time, to formulate the relational structure of n-ScIFSs as a model of a certain information granule system called here the diagnostic granule system. In addition, power- and linear-repeatable diagnostic granules are defined in the n-ScIFSs structure for serial or parallel diagnosis processes. The information granule base is determined and a diagnostic granule system model produced by this information granule base is shown. Certain algorithms have been given to establish the semantic language of diagnosis describing the system of diagnostic information granules.

A Newly Proposed and Comparative Study on Multi - Criteria Decision Making in Interval Valued Bipolar Triangular Neutrosophic Set by PROMETHEE II

“…Neutrosophic sets are characterized by truth membership function(T), an indeterminacy membership function(I) and falsity membership function(F) which takes the values from ]0 − , 1 + [. Lee (2) proposed Bipolar fuzzy sets which is the generalization of fuzzy sets of Zadeh's (3) . Bosc and Pivert (4) quoted that "Bipolarity refers to the prosperity of the human kind to make reasons and make decisions on the basis of both positive and negative effects".…”
