NS s a stace of a eutrosohc set whch ca be used real scetfc ad egeerg alcatos. the followg we troduce the defto of a NS Wag et al. 005. Defto 4 Wag et al 005 Let X be a sace of ots obects wth geerc elemets X deoted by. NS X s characterzed by a truth-membersh fucto a determacy-membersh fucto ad a falsty-membersh fucto. or each ot X we have that [0 ]. We call t terval because t s the subclass of a eutrosohc set that s we oly cosder the subutary terval of [0 ]. herefore ll NSs are clearly eutrosohc sets. NS R s llustrated g.

Defto 7 Wag et al 005 terval eutrosohc set s cotaed the other NS f ad oly f f f f f f f ad for ay X. Defto 8 Wag et al 005 wo NSs ad are equal wrtte as = f ad oly f ad. 3. Smlarty measures betwee NSs ths secto we reset the deftos of the Hammg ad Eucldea dstaces betwee NSs ad the smlarty measures betwee NSs based o the dstaces whch ca be used real scetfc ad egeerg alcatos. or coveece two NSs ad X = { } are deoted by X ad X where [0 ] for every X. he we defe the followg dstaces for ad. he Hammg dstace: d f f f f f f he ormalzed Hammg dstace: 7
8 f f f f f f d. he Eucldea dstace: / 3 f f f f f f d 3 V he ormalzed Eucldea dstace: / 4 f f f f f f d.4 Proosto he above defed dstace d k k = 34 betwee NSs ad satsfes the followg roertes D-D4: D d k 0; D d k = 0 f ad oly f = ; D3 d k = d k ; D4 f s a NS X the d k d k ad d k d k. Proof t s easy to see that d k k = 34 satsfes the roertes D D3. herefore we oly rove D4. Let the f f f f f f f f f ad for every X. or = we have f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f
9 f f f f. Hece f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f. ombg the above equaltes wth the above defed dstace formulas -4 we ca obta that d d k k ad d d k k for k = 3 4. hus the roerty D4 s obtaed. However the dffereces of mortace are cosdered the elemets the uverse. herefore we eed to take the weghts of the elemets = to accout. the followg we develo some weghted dstace measures betwee NSs. Let w = {w w w } s the weght vector of the elemets = the we have the followg the weghted Hammg dstace ad the weghted Eucldea dstace: f f f f f f 5 w d 5 / f f f f f f w d. f w = {/ / /} the Eqs. 5 ad are reduced to the ormalzed Hammg dstace Eq. ad the ormalzed Eucldea dstace Eq. 4 resectvely. t s easy to check that the weghted dstace d k k = 5 betwee NSs ad also satsfy the above roertes D-D4.
0 t s well kow that smlarty measures ca be geerated from dstace measures. herefore we may use the roosed dstace measures to defe smlarty measures. ased o the relatosh of smlarty measures ad dstace measures we ca defe some smlarty measures betwee NSs ad as follows: f f f f f f w S 7 / f f f f f f w S 8 ccordg to the above dstace roertes D-D4 t s easy to check that the smlarty measure S k k = has the followg roertes P-P4: P 0 S k ; P S k = f ad oly f = ; P3 S k = S k ; P4 f s a NS X the S k S k ad S k S k. t s clear that the larger the value of S k k = the more the smlarty betwee NSs ad. 4. Decso-makg method based o the smlarty measures ths secto we reset a hadlg method for the multcrtera decso-makg roblem terval eutrosohc settg by meas of the smlarty measures betwee NSs. Let = { m } be a set of alteratves ad let = { } be a set of crtera. ssume that the weght of the crtero = etered by the decso-maker s w w
[0 ] ad. ths case the characterstc of the alteratve = m s rereseted by the followg NS: { { [f ][f } ][f ] } where [f ] [f ] [f ] [0 ] 0 3 = ad = m. NS whch s the ar of tervals [f ] [f ] [f ] for s deoted by = [a b ] [c d ] [e f ] for coveece. Here a NS s usually derved from the evaluato of a alteratve wth resect to a crtero by meas of a score law ad data rocessg ractce. herefore we ca elct a terval eutrosohc decso matr D = m. multcrtera decso makg evromets the cocet of deal ot has bee used to hel detfy the best alteratve the decso set. lthough the deal alteratve does ot est real world t does rovde a useful theoretcal costruct agast whch to evaluate alteratves. Geerally the evaluato crtera ca be categorzed to two kds beeft crtera ad cost crtera. Let H be a collecto of beeft crtera ad L be a collecto of cost crtera. he we defe a deal NS for a beeft crtero the deal alteratve * as * * * * * * * a b c d e f 00 00 for H; whle for a cost crtero we defe a deal NS the deal alteratve * * * * * * * * as a b c d e f 00 for L. hus by alyg Eqs. 7 ad 8 two smlarty measures betwee a alteratve ad the deal alteratve * rereseted by the NSs are defed as follows:
* * * * * * * S w a a b b c c d d e e f f 9 * S w * * * * * * a a b b c c d d e e f f /. 0 hrough the smlarty measure S * or S * = m betwee each alteratve ad the deal alteratve the rakg order of all alteratves ca be determed ad the best oe ca be easly detfed as well. 5. llustratve eamle ths secto a eamle for the multcrtera decso-makg roblem of alteratves s used as the demostrato of the alcato of the roosed decso-makg method as well as the effectveess of the roosed method. Let us cosder the decso-makg roblem adated from Ye 009. here s a vestmet comay whch wats to vest a sum of moey the best oto. here s a ael wth four ossble alteratves to vest the moey: s a car comay; s a food comay; 3 3 s a comuter comay; 4 4 s a arms comay. he vestmet comay must take a decso accordg to the followg three crtera: s the rsk aalyss; s the growth aalyss; 3 3 s the evrometal mact aalyss where ad are beeft crtera ad 3 s a cost crtero. he weght vector of the crtera s gve by w = 0.35 0.5 0.40. he four ossble alteratves are to be evaluated uder the above three crtera by corresodg to the NSs as show the followg terval eutrosohc decso matr D:
[0.40.5][0.0.3][0.30.4] [0.0.7][0.0.][0.0.3] D [0.30.][0.0.3][0.30.4] [0.70.8][0.00.][0.0.] [0.40.][0.0.3][0.0.4] [0.0.7][0.0.][0.0.3] [0.50.][0.0.3][0.30.4] [0.0.7][0.0.][0.0.3] [0.70.9][0.0.3][0.40.5] [0.30.][0.30.5][0.80.9]. [0.40.5][0.0.4][0.70.9] [0.0.7][0.30.4][0.80.9] he we utlze the develoed aroach to obta the most desrable alteratves. y usg Eq. 9 we ca obta the followg smlarty measures of S * * = 3 4: S * * = 0.505 S * * = 0.900 S * * 3 = 0.5983 ad S * * 4 = 0.958. herefore the rakg order of the four alteratves s 4 3 ad. Obvously amogst them 4 s the best alteratve. Or by alyg Eq. 0 we ca gve the smlarty measures of S * * = 3 4 as follows: S * * = 0.457 S * * = 0.455 S * * 3 = 0.5599 ad S * * 4 = 0.00. hus the rakg order of the four alteratves s 4 3 ad obvously amogst them s the best alteratve.. ocluso ths aer we defed the Hammg ad Eucldea dstaces ad roosed the smlarty measures betwee NSs based o the relatosh betwee smlarty measures ad dstaces. he a multcrtera decso-makg method has bee establshed terval eutrosohc settg by meas of the smlarty measure betwee each alteratve ad the deal alteratve. hrough the smlarty measures the rakg order of all alteratves ca be determed ad the best alteratve ca be easly detfed as well. ally a llustratve eamle llustrated the alcato of the develoed aroach. he roosed smlarty measures betwee NSs are more sutable for real scetfc ad 3
egeerg alcatos. he the techques roosed ths aer eted estg decso-makg methods ad ca rovde a useful way for decso-makers. the future we shall cotue workg the alcato of the smlarty measures betwee NSs to other domas.
