In this paper, different measures of interval-valued pentagonal fuzzy numbers (IVPFN) associated with assorted membership functions (MF) were explored, considering significant exposure of multifarious interval-valued fuzzy numbers in neoteric studies.Also, the idea of MF is generalized somewhat to nonlinear membership functions for viewing the symmetries and asymmetries of the pentagonal fuzzy structures. Accordingly,the construction of level sets, for each case of linear and nonlinear MF was also carried out. Besides, defuzzification was undertaken using three methods and a ranking method, which were also the main features of this framework.The developed intellects were implemented in a game problem by taking the parameters as PFNs, ultimately resulting in a new direction for modeling real world problems and to comprehend the uncertainty of the parameters more precisely in the evaluation process.

In the view of significant exposure of multifarious interval-valued fuzzy numbers in neoteric studies, different measures of interval-valued generalized hexagonal fuzzy numbers (IVGHFN) associated with assorted membership functions (MF) are explored in this article. Considering the symmetricity and asymmetricity of the hexagonal fuzzy structures, the idea of MF is generalized a bit more, to nonlinear membership functions. The construction of level sets, accordingly for each case of linear and nonlinear MF are also carried out. In addition, the concepts of generalized Hukuhara (gH) differentiability for the interval-valued generalized hexagonal fuzzy functions (IVGHFF) are also the main features of this framework. Illustratively, the developed intellects are implemented on a logistic population growth problem, by taking ecological functions as IVGHFFs. For the further numerical demonstrations of the model, artificial neural network with simulated annealing (ANNSA) algorithm is utilized.

Ranking of interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy (IVIF) numbers is a most popular and elegant work in the area of decision-making of several real-world problems. Some limited methods have been presented concerning the ranking of IVIF sets in literature. In the present paper, we generalize the intuitionistic fuzzy (IF) number to interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy number by defining interval membership and nonmembership functions instead of fixed-valued function and hence it will present uncertain situation better than IF numbers. It may also be applied in data analysis, industrial management, artificial intelligence, forecasting, time series and so on. In this paper, ranking methodology of IVIF numbers is presented, for this first we define the value and ambiguity of IVIF numbers. Proposed ranking method also is compared with existing ranking methods. Further, IVIF numbers are used to capture fuzziness and hesitation in transportation problem (TP), and we propose a new method to find optimal solutions of TP with IVIF number parameters and finally, a numerical example is given to demonstrate the proposed method.

A formal model of an imprecise number can be given as, inter alia, a fuzzy number or oriented fuzzy numbers. Are they formally equivalent models? Our main goal is to seek formal differences between fuzzy numbers and oriented fuzzy numbers. For this purpose, we examine algebraic structures composed of numerical spaces equipped with addition, dot multiplication, and subtraction determined in a usual way. We show that these structures are not isomorphic. It proves that oriented fuzzy numbers and fuzzy numbers are not equivalent models of an imprecise number. This is the first original study of a problem of a dissimilarity between oriented fuzzy numbers and fuzzy numbers. Therefore, any theorems on fuzzy numbers cannot automatically be extended to the case of oriented fuzzy numbers. In the second part of the article, we study the purposefulness of a replacement of fuzzy numbers by oriented fuzzy numbers. We show that for a portfolio analysis, oriented fuzzy numbers are more useful than fuzzy numbers. Therefore, we conclude that oriented fuzzy numbers are an original and useful tool for modelling a real-world problems.

This paper introduces Single Valued Refined Neutrosophic Set (SVRNS) which is a generalized version of the neutrosophic set. It consists of six membership functions based on imaginary and indeterminate aspect and hence, is more sensitive to real-world problems. Membership functions defined as complex (imaginary), a falsity tending towards complex and truth tending towards complex are used to handle the imaginary concept in addition to existing memberships in the Single Valued Neutrosophic Set (SVNS). Several properties of this set were also discussed. The study of imaginative pretend play of children in the age group from 1 to 10 years was taken for analysis using SVRNS, since it is a field which has an ample number of imaginary aspects involved. SVRNS will be more apt in representing these data when compared to other neutrosophic sets. Machine learning algorithms such as K-means, parallel axes coordinate, etc., were applied and visualized for a real-world application concerned with child psychology. The proposed algorithms help in analysing the mental abilities of a child on the basis of imaginative play. These algorithms aid in establishing a correlation between several determinants of imaginative play and a child’s mental abilities, and thus help in drawing logical conclusions based on it. A brief comparison of the several algorithms used is also provided.

Interval-valued fuzzy set theory (advanced generalization of Zadeh's fuzzy sets) is a more generalized theory that can deal with real world problems more precisely than ordinary fuzzy set theory. In this paper, we introduce the notion of generalized quasi-coincident with () relation of an interval-valued fuzzy point with an interval-valued fuzzy set. In fact, this new concept is a more generalized form of quasi-coincident with relation of an interval-valued fuzzy point with an interval-valued fuzzy set. Applying this newly defined idea, the notion of an interval-valued -fuzzy bi-ideal is introduced. Moreover, some characterizations of interval-valued -fuzzy bi-ideals are described. It is shown that an interval-valued -fuzzy bi-ideal is an interval-valued fuzzy bi-ideal by imposing a condition on interval-valued fuzzy subset. Finally, the concept of implication-based interval-valued fuzzy bi-ideals, characterizations of an interval-valued fuzzy bi-ideal and an interval-valued -fuzzy bi-ideal are considered.

Decision making, reasoning, and analysis in real-world problems are complicated by imperfect information. Real-world imperfect information is mainly characterized by two features. In view of this, Professor Zadeh suggested the concept of aZ-number as an ordered pairZ=(A,B)of fuzzy numbersAandB, the first of which is a linguistic value of a variable of interest, and the second one is a linguistic value of probability measure of the first one, playing a role of its reliability. The concept of distance is one of the important concepts for handling imperfect information in decision making and reasoning. In this paper, we, for the first time, apply the concept of distance ofZ-numbers to the approximate reasoning withZ-number based IF-THEN rules. We provide an example on solving problem related to psychological issues naturally characterized by imperfect information, which shows applicability and validity of the suggested approach.

Fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) methodologies have witnessed a growing development from the late 1980s until now, and countless FAHP based applications have been published in many fields including economics, finance, environment or engineering. In this context, the FAHP methodologies have been generally restricted to fuzzy numbers with linear type of membership functions (triangular numbers—TN—and trapezoidal numbers—TrN). This paper proposes an extended FAHP model (E-FAHP) where pairwise fuzzy comparison matrices are represented by a special type of fuzzy numbers referred to as (m,n)-trapezoidal numbers (TrN (m,n)) with nonlinear membership functions. It is then demonstrated that there are a significant number of FAHP approaches that can be reduced to the proposed E-FAHP structure. A comparative analysis of E-FAHP and Mikhailov’s model is illustrated with a case study showing that E-FAHP includes linear and nonlinear fuzzy numbers.
