2.9 Direct Cluster Analysis Based on Intuitionistic
Fuzzy Implication
2.9.1 The Intuitionistic Fuzzy Implication Operator
and Intuitionistic Fuzzy Products
Definition 2.35 (Kohout and Bandler 1980, 1984) Let U i (
i
=
1
,
2
)
be two ordinary
subsets, and L
U 1 ×
U 2 an ordinary relation. Then for any a
,
b
U 2 , Lb
={
a
|
aLb
}
and aL
={
b
|
aLb
}
are respectively called a former set and a latter set.
Definition 2.36 (Kohout and Bandler 1980, 1984) Let U i (
i
=
1
,
2
,
3
)
be ordinary
subsets, L 1
U 1 ×
U 2 and L 2
U 2 ×
U 3 , then a triangle product L 1
L 2
U 1 ×
U 3
of L 1 and L 2 can be defined as:
aL 1
L 2 c
aL 1
L 2 c
,
for any
(
a
,
c
)
U 1 ×
U 2
(2.196)
Similarly, a square product L 1
L 2 is defined as:
aL 1
aL 1 =
,
(
,
)
×
L 2 c
L 2 c
for any
a
c
U
W
(2.197)
where aL 1 =
L 2 c if and only if aL 1
L 2 c and aL 1
L 2 c .
Wang and Liu (1999) introduced a fuzzy implication operator as follows:
Definition 2.37 (Wang and Liu 1999) Let I 1 be a binary operation on
[
0
,
1
]
,if
I 1 (
0
,
0
) =
I 1 (
0
,
1
) =
I 1 (
1
,
1
) =
1 and I
(
1
,
0
) =
0
(2.198)
then I 1 is called a fuzzy implication operator.
For any a
,
b
∈[
0
,
1
]
, I 1 (
a
,
b
)
is a fuzzy implication operator, which can also be
denoted as a
b . Especially, the well-known Lukasiewicz implication operator is
given as
ϕ(
a
,
b
) =
min
(
1
a
+
b
,
1
)
, which means that the result of “ a imply b ”is
min
.
Motivated by the idea of Definition 2.37, Wang et al. (2012) defined the concept
of intuitionistic fuzzy implication operator:
(
1
a
+
b
,
1
)
Definition 2.38 (Wang et al. 2012) Let I 1 be a binary operation on the set of all
IFVs, V ,if
I 1 ((
0
,
1
), (
0
,
1
)) =
I 1 ((
0
,
1
), (
1
,
0
)) =
I 1 ((
1
,
0
), (
1
,
0
))
= (
1
,
0
),
I 1 ((
1
,
0
), (
0
,
1
)) = (
0
,
1
)
then I 1 is called an intuitionistic fuzzy implication operator.
