Dilemmas with Distances Between Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets: Straightforward Approaches May Not Work

  • Chapter
Intelligent Techniques and Tools for Novel System Architectures

Part of the book series: Studies in Computational Intelligence ((SCI,volume 109))

Summary

We show and justify how to calculate distances for intuitionistic fuzzy sets (A-IFSs, for short). We show a proper way of calculations not only from a mathematical point of view but also of an intuitive appeal making use of all the relevant information.
