Abstract

The objective of this manuscript is to present a novel information measure for measuring the degree of fuzziness in intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFSs). To achieve it, we define an ( R , S ) -norm-based information measure called the entropy to measure the degree of fuzziness of the set. Then, we prove that the proposed entropy measure is a valid measure and satisfies certain properties. An illustrative example related to a linguistic variable is given to demonstrate it. Then, we utilized it to propose two decision-making approaches to solve the multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) problem in the IFS environment by considering the attribute weights as either partially known or completely unknown. Finally, a practical example is provided to illustrate the decision-making process. The results corresponding to different pairs of ( R , S ) give different choices to the decision-maker to assess their results.
