Abstract

Entropy is an important tool in measuring the uncertainty research of fuzzy system, in which many achievements have been obtained. Due to the hesitant degree, intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFS) is more complex than the traditional fuzzy sets in ambiguity and uncertainty. Therefore, there are many challenges in the research of intuitionistic fuzzy entropy and intuitionistic fuzzy knowledge measure, especially the lack of deep research on the axiom system, unified theory, and method. Hence, this paper firstly studies the Szmidt and Kacprzyk’s axiom system, which is composed of order, non-negative boundedness, and symmetry. Meanwhile, we put forward some necessary and sufficient conditions and necessary conditions for order property. Simultaneously, the order property of some traditional and classical operators is proved by using the necessary and sufficient conditions. Then, a simple and convenient knowledge measure with parameter is proposed based on the order condition. Finally, based on intuitionistic fuzzy set, an experiment to test the order property is proposed. The simulation demonstrates that the results of the presented method are widely similar to that of the traditional algorithm under different parameter values, and in some special values, the results of this parametric method are more accurate than those of most classic methods.
