A new dempster-shafer theory-based method with fuzzy targets for fuzzy sets ranking

In this paper, a new Fuzzy Set (FS) ranking method (for type-1 and interval type-2 FSs), which is based on the Dempster-Shafer Theory (DST) of evidence with fuzzy targets, is investigated. Fuzzy targets are adopted to reflect human viewpoints on fuzzy ranking. Two important measures in DST, i.e., th...

Description
Summary:In this paper, a new Fuzzy Set (FS) ranking method (for type-1 and interval type-2 FSs), which is based on the Dempster-Shafer Theory (DST) of evidence with fuzzy targets, is investigated. Fuzzy targets are adopted to reflect human viewpoints on fuzzy ranking. Two important measures in DST, i.e., the belief and plausibility measures, are used to rank FSs. The proposed approach is evaluated with several benchmark examples. The use of the belief and plausibility measures in fuzzy ranking are discussed and compared. We further analyze the capability of the proposed approach in fulfilling six reasonable fuzzy ordering properties as discussed in [9]-[11].
