Rough interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets

2014

Abstract

Theories of fuzzy sets and rough sets are powerful mathematical tools for modeling various types of uncertainty. Dubois and Prade investigated the problem of combining fuzzy sets with rough sets. In this paper we define the notion of rough interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets. The lower and upper approximations of interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets with respect to Pawlak’s approximation space are first defined. Properties of interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy approximation operators are
