We propose the cosine similarity measures for intuitionistic fuzzy linguistic sets (IFLSs) and interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy linguistic sets (IVIFLSs), which are expressed by the linguistic scale function based on the cosine function. Then, the weighted cosine similarity measure and the ordered weighted cosine similarity measure for IFLSs and IVIFLSs are introduced by taking into account the importance of each element, and the properties of the cosine similarity measures are also given. The main advantage of the proposed cosine similarity measures is that the decision-makers can flexibly select the linguistic scale function depending on the actual semantic situation. Finally, we present the application of the cosine similarity measures for intuitionistic fuzzy linguistic term sets and interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy linguistic term sets to pattern recognition and medical diagnosis, and the existing cosine similarity measures are compared with the proposed cosine similarity measures by the illustrative example.

The purpose of this paper is to present a new method to solve the decision-making algorithm based on the cosine similarity and distance measures by utilizing the uncertain and vague information. A complex interval-valued q-rung orthopair fuzzy set (CIVQROFS) is a reliable and competent technique for handling the uncertain information with the help of the complex-valued membership grades. To address the degree of discrimination between the pairs of the sets, cosine similarity measures (CSMs) and distance measures (DMs) are an accomplished technique. Driven by these, in this manuscript, we defined some CSMs and DMs for the pairs of CIVQROFSs and investigated their several properties. Choosing that the CSMs do not justify the axiom of the similarity measure (SM), then we investigate a technique to developing other CIVQROFSs-based SMs using the explored CSMs and Euclidean DMs, and it fulfills the axiom of the SMs. In addition, we find the cosine DMs (CDMs) by considering the inter-relationship between the SM and DMs; then, we have modified the procedure for the rank of partiality by similarity to the ideal solution method for the CDMs under investigation, which can deal with the associated decision-making problems not only individually from the argument of the opinion of geometry but also the fact of the opinion of algebra. Finally, we provide a numerical example to demonstrate the practicality and effectiveness of the proposed procedure, which is also in line with existing procedures. Graphical representations of the measures developed are also used in this manuscript.

The Vector Space Model (VSM) is widely used in data mining and Information Retrieval (IR) systems as a common document representation model. However, there are some challenges to this technique such as high dimensional space and semantic looseness of the representation. Consequently, the Latent Semantic Indexing (LSI) was suggested to reduce the feature dimensions and to generate semantic rich features that can represent conceptual term-document associations. In fact, LSI has been effectively employed in search engines and many other Natural Language Processing (NLP) applications. Researchers thereby promote endless effort seeking for better performance. In this paper, we propose an innovative method that can be used in search engines to find better matched contents of the retrieving documents. The proposed method introduces a new extension for the LSI technique based on the cosine similarity measures. The performance evaluation was carried out using an Arabic language data collection that contains 800 medical related documents, with more than 47,222 unique words. The proposed method was assessed using a small testing set that contains five medical keywords. The results show that the performance of the proposed method is superior when compared to the standard LSI
