Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Convexity is a very important mathematical property, and it exists in many research areas, such as vector space, metric space, and partially ordered sets. By abstracting the common properties of convex sets, the notion of convex structures was proposed. Since Zadeh introduced the concept of fuzzy sets, fuzzy set theory has been applied to many research areas, including both theoretical and applied aspects. In this Special Issue, we will concentrate on the advances in fuzzy convex structures and related topics, combining fuzzy set theory and many theories related to convexity theory. From the theoretical aspect, this Issue will refer to fuzzy convex structure, fuzzy convex algebra, fuzzy topology and fuzzy metric. From the applied aspect, it will concentrate on fuzzy convex optimization, fuzzy data envelope and fuzzy rough set.

Managing ambiguous and asymmetric types of information is a very challenging task under the consideration of classical data. Furthermore, Aczel-Alsina aggregation operators are the new developments in fuzzy sets theory. However, when decision-makers need to use these structures in fuzzy rough structures, these operators fail to deal with such types of values, as fuzzy rough structures use lower and upper approximation spaces. Thus, an encasement of an intuitionistic fuzzy set has a chance of data loss, whereas an intuitionistic fuzzy rough set can resolve the problem of data loss. Motivated by the notion of intuitionistic fuzzy rough sets and new aggregation operators i.e., intuitionistic fuzzy Aczel-Alsina operators, this paper firstly initiates some basic Aczel-Alsina operational rules for intuitionistic fuzzy rough numbers. Secondly, based on these newly defined operational rules, we have developed some new aggregation operators, such as intuitionistic fuzzy rough Aczel-Alsina weighted average (IFRAAWA), intuitionistic fuzzy rough Aczel-Alsina ordered weighted average (IFRAAOWA), and intuitionistic fuzzy rough Aczel-Alsina hybrid average (IFRAAHA) aggregation operators. Moreover, the properties of these aggregation operators have been initiated. These operators can help in evaluating awkward and asymmetric information in real-life problems. The use of aggregation operators in medical diagnosis and MADM is an efficient method that can help in healthcare and decision-making applications. To present an effective use of these developed operators in medical diagnosis and the selection of the best next-generation firewall, we have established an algorithm along with a numerical example to provide authenticity and clarity to the established work. Furthermore, a comparative analysis of the introduced work shows the superiority of the introduced approach. Full article

There are many symmetries in L-fuzzy algebras. In this paper, a novel approach to the fuzzification of a field is introduced. We define a mapping F:LX→L from the family of all the L-fuzzy sets on a field X to L such that each L-fuzzy set is an L-fuzzy subfield to some extent. Some equivalent characterizations F(μ) are given by means of cut sets. It is proved that F is L-fuzzy convex structure on X, hence (X,F) forms an L-fuzzy convexity space. A homomorphism between fields is exactly an L-fuzzy convexity preserving mapping and an L-fuzzy convex-to-convex mapping. Finally, we discuss some operations of L-fuzzy subsets. Full article
