Abstract In this paper, a novel generalized interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets (GIVIFS) is presented, which is the generalization of conventional intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFS) and interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IVIFS). By analyzing the degree of hesitancy, this paper introduces generalized interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets with parameters (GIVIFSP). And then, it is proved that GIVIFS is a closed algebraic system as IFS and IVIFS.

1. Introduction In 1986, Atanassov presented IFS. In 1989, Atanassov proposed IVIFS based on comparative analysis of interval-valued fuzzy sets (IVVS) and IFS. Hence, many scholars applied IFS and IVIFS to decision analysis and pattern recognition widely. In the research field of IVIFS, Yager, Yuan Xuehai, and Li Hongxing discussed the cut set characteristics of IVIFS in [5, 6, 7], and in [8, 12, 13] Xu Zeshui and Zhang Qiansheng applied it to pattern recognition based on [4]. Xu Zeshui and Li Dengfeng also applied it to decision-making analysis in [9, 10, 11], and Lei Yingjie and Zhang Qiansheng researched on interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy reasoning in [14, 15]. By introducing the degree of membership MA(x), the degree of non-membership NA(x) and the degree of hesitancy HA(x), the IFS theory and the IVIFS theory are established, which generalizes Zadeh’s fuzzy Zhang Zhenhua.

sets (FS) ([1, 2, 3]). According to the IVIFS definition, MA(x), NA(x) and HA(x) are intervals, where MA(x) denotes the range of support party, NA(x) denotes the range of opposition party, and HA(x) denotes the range of absent party. Moreover, the inferior of MA(x) (INF(MA(x))) is the firm support party of event A, the inferior of NA(x) (INF(NA(x))) is the firm opposition party of event A, the inferior of HA(x) (INF(HA(x))) is the firm absent party of event A, the superior of HA(x) (SUP(HA(x))) is the maximum absent party of event A, and SUP(HA(x))-INF(HA(x)) denotes the convertible absent part, where INF(MA(x))+ INF(NA(x))+SUP(HA(x))=1. Atanassov has divided the convertible absent part into two parts: SUP (MA(x))-INF (MA(x)) being the absent party which can be converted into support party, and SUP (NA(x))-INF (NA(x)) being the absent party which can be converted into the opposition party, where SUP (MA(x))-INF (MA(x))+ SUP (NA(x))-INF (NA(x)) = SUP(HA(x))-INF(HA(x)). Thus, Atanassov’s IVIFS is based on point estimation, which means that these intervals can be regarded as the estimation result of an experiment. However, the proportions of the absent party converted to the support party and to the opposition party may not be constants. For example, SUP (MA(x))-INF (MA(x)) is a constant for one experiment, but it may be a different constant for any other case. Thus, according to interval estimation, we provide a novel GIVIFS model to meet real need. First, we present the concept of GIVIFS, which is proved to be the generalization of IFS and IVIFS. And then we introduce the construction method of the generalized interval valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets with parameters (GIVIFSP), and define complement operation, intersection operation and union operation on GIVIFS. Finally, we prove that GIVIFS is a closed algebraic system for all these operations as fuzzy sets, IFS, and IVIFS. Therefore, this paper generalizes the IVIFS theory, and provides some valuable conclusions for the field of application research of IVIFS, and it is also useful to the generalization of interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy reasoning. 2. Construction of GIVIFS Definition 1. An IFS A in universe X is given by (Atanassov [1, 2, 3]): (1) A = {< x, μA(x), νA(x) > |x � X} where μA : X → [0, 1],νA : X → [0, 1] with the condition 0≤μA(x) + νA(x) ≤1 for each x � X. The numbers μA(x), νA(x) � [0, 1] denote the degree of membership and the degree of non-membership of x to A, respectively. For each IFS in X, we call πA(x) = 1 − μA(x) − νA(x) the degree of hesitancy ([9]) of x to A, 0≤πA(x) ≤1 for each x � X. Definition 2. An IVIFS A in universe X is given by (Atanassov [2, 3]): (2) A = {< x, MA(x), NA(x) > |x � X} − + − + − + where M A (x)=[t A ( x ), t A ( x )], N A (x)=[ f A ( x ), f A ( x)], and HA(x) = [π A ( x ), π A ( x )] with the condition M A ( x) ⊆ [0,1] , N A ( x) ⊆ [0,1] , P A ( x) ⊆ [0,1] . The interval MA(x), NA(x), and HA(x) denote the degree of membership, the degree of non-membership, and the degree of hesitancy of x to A, respectively. For each IVIFS in X, we call π A− ( x ) = 1 − t A+ ( x ) − f A+ ( x ), π A+ ( x ) = 1 − t A− ( x ) − f A− ( x ) lower bound and upper

bound of hesitancy of x to A respectively, where 0 ≤ π A− ( x ) ≤ π A+ ( x ) ≤ 1, for each x � X. Theorem1. Suppose that A is an IVIFS as mentioned above, then t A+ ( x) − t A− ( x) + f A+ ( x) − f A− ( x) = π A+ ( x) − π A− ( x). Based on definition2, we have (3). From definition 2, let all samples be divided into three parts, −

π A− ( x)

is firm absent party, and π A+ ( x ) − π A− ( x ) is convertible absent party, in which each sample may become one of the support party and the opposition party. Suppose that there is t A+ ( x ) − t A− ( x ) absent party,

of the samples supporting event A and f A+ ( x ) − f A− ( x ) of the samples opposing event A, and then

0 ≤ t A+ ( x) − t A− ( x) ≤ π A+ ( x) − π A− ( x), 0 ≤ f A+ ( x) − f A− ( x) ≤ π A+ ( x) − π A− ( x). Let α A ( x) = t A+ ( x) − t A− ( x), β A ( x) = f A+ ( x) − f A− ( x), and we will get the GIVIFS definition as follows: Definition 3. Let X be a universe of discourse. A GIVIFS A in X is an object having the form: A={|x∈X} where the intervals MA(x), NA(x), HA(x) are the same as definition 2. Let t A+ ( x ) = t A− ( x ) + α A ( x ) and f A+ ( x ) = f A− ( x ) + β A ( x ) , then 0 ≤ max{α A ( x ), β A ( x )} ≤ π A+ ( x ) − π A− ( x ) . Obviously, if π A+ ( x ) = π A− ( x ) = 0, then α A ( x) = β A ( x) = 0 and GIVIFS is fuzzy sets; and if α A ( x) = β A ( x) = 0, then GIVIFS is IFS; and if

α A ( x) + β A ( x) = t A+ ( x) − t A− ( x) + f A+ ( x) − f A− ( x) = π A+ ( x) − π A− ( x) , then GIVIFS is IVIFS. Suppose that the proportion of absent party converted to the support party is

λA1 ( x) and that

converted to the opposition party is 1 − λ A1 ( x) . The model will become interval valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets with single parameter, where

α A ( x) = λA1 ( x)(π A+ ( x) − π A− ( x)), β A ( x) = (1 − λA1 ( x))(π A+ ( x) − π A− ( x)).

In absent party

π A+ ( x),

if firm absent party is π A− ( x ) = (1 − λ A 0 ( x ))π A+ ( x ), then variable absent party

is π A+ ( x ) − π A− ( x ) = λ A 0 ( x )π A+ ( x ) , and then we can define GIVIFSP as follows: Definition 4. Let X be a universe of discourse. A GIVIFSP A in X is an object having the form: A={|x∈X} where MA(x), NA(x), and HA(x) are the same as definition3. Let t A+ ( x) = t A− ( x ) + λ A0 ( x)λ A1 ( x )π A+ ( x ), f A+ ( x ) = f A− ( x ) + λ A 0 ( x)λ A 2 ( x)π A+ ( x), π A− ( x) = (1 − λ A0 ( x ))π A+ ( x ),

where 0 ≤ λ Ai ( x) ≤ 1, i = 0,1, 2. MA(x), NA(x), And HA(x) represent the degree range of membership, the degree range of non-membership, and the degree range of hesitancy of x to A, respectively. It is clear that we will get the following conclusions: If π A+ ( x ) = π A− ( x) = 0, then λA0 ( x) = 0, and then GIVIFS is fuzzy sets; and if λA0 ( x) = 0, then GIVIFS is IFS; and if λ A0 ( x) > 0 and λ A1 ( x) + λA 2 ( x) = 1 ,

then GIVIFS is IVIFS. Furthermore, if λ Ai ( x) = λi , i = 0,1, 2, and λi is constant, then GIVIFSP is an interval valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets with fixed parameters, otherwise it is a variable model. 3. Algebraic properties of GIVIFS

We present the basic operations of containment relation, equal relation, intersection, union, and complement of GIVIFS as follows: Definition 5. Let X be a universe of discourse. A and B are two GIVIFSPs in X. A={|x∈X}, B={|x∈X},where MA(x), NA(x), and HA(x) are the same as definition 3. (1).A ⊆ B ⇔ M A ( x ) ⊆ M B ( x ), N B ( x ) ⊆ N A ( x ) ⇔ t A− ( x ) ≤ t B− ( x ), t A+ ( x ) ≤ t B+ ( x ), f A− ( x ) ≥ f B− ( x ), f A+ ( x ) ≥ f B+ ( x );

(2).A = B ⇔ A ⊆ B, B ⊆ A ⇔ M A ( x) = M B ( x ), N B ( x ) = N A ( x ) ⇔ t A− ( x) = t B− ( x), t A+ ( x) = t B+ ( x), f A− ( x) = f B− ( x), f A+ ( x ) = f B+ ( x);

(3). A I B = {< x, M A ( x ), N A ( x) >| x ∈ X } I {< x, M B ( x ), N B ( x) >| x ∈ X } = {< x,[t A− ( x), t A+ ( x)],[ f A− ( x), f A+ ( x)] >| x ∈ X } I {< x,[t B− ( x), t B+ ( x)],[ f B− ( x ), f B+ ( x)] >| x ∈ X } = {< x,[t A− ( x) ∧ t B− ( x), t A+ ( x) ∧ t B+ ( x)],[ f A− ( x) ∨ f B− ( x), f A+ ( x) ∨ f B+ ( x)] >| x ∈ X }; (4). A U B = {< x, M A ( x), N A ( x) >| x ∈ X } U {< x, M B ( x), N B ( x ) >| x ∈ X } = {< x,[t A− ( x), t A+ ( x)],[ f A− ( x), f A+ ( x)] >| x ∈ X } U {< x,[t B− ( x), t B+ ( x)],[ f B− ( x), f B+ ( x)] >| x ∈ X } = {< x,[t A− ( x) ∨ t B− ( x), t A+ ( x) ∨ t B+ ( x)],[ f A− ( x) ∧ f B− ( x), f A+ ( x) ∧ f B+ ( x)] >| x ∈ X }; (5). AC = {< x, M A ( x), N A ( x ) >| x ∈ X }C = {< x, N A ( x), M A ( x ) >| x ∈ X } = {< x,[ f A− ( x ), f A+ ( x )],[t A− ( x ), t A+ ( x )] >| x ∈ X }.

Theorem2. GIVIFS is closed for complement operation, containment operation, and union operation. Proof: Support that A and B are GIVIFSs. We will prove that AC , A I B , and A U B are also GIVIFSs. AC = {< x, M A ( x ), N A ( x) >| x ∈ X }C = {< x, N A ( x), M A ( x) >| x ∈ X } = {< x,[ f A− ( x), f A+ ( x)],[t A− ( x), t A+ ( x)] >| x ∈ X } = {< x,[ f A− ( x ), f A− ( x) + β A ( x)],[t A− ( x), t A+ ( x) + α A ( x)] >| x ∈ X }, 0 ≤ max{α A ( x), β A ( x)} ≤ π A+ ( x) − π A− ( x).

Thus, AC is also GIVIFS. According to definition 3, π A+ I B ( x ), π A− I B ( x ), π A+ U B ( x ), π A−U B ( x ) can be defined as π A+ ( x ), π A− ( x ) . Obviously, 0 ≤ t A+ ( x ) − t A− ( x ) ≤ π A+ ( x ) − π A− ( x ), 0 ≤ f A+ ( x ) − f A− ( x ) ≤ π A+ ( x ) − π A− ( x ), 0 ≤ t B+ ( x ) − t B− ( x ) ≤ π B+ ( x ) − π B− ( x ),

0 ≤ f B+ ( x ) − f B− ( x ) ≤ π B+ ( x) − π B− ( x), π A+I B ( x) = 1 − t A−I B ( x) − f A−I B ( x), π A−I B ( x) = 1 − t A+I B ( x) − f A+I B ( x), Table 1. A ∩ B & A∪B +

According to each condition mentioned in Table1, the following inequality is obtained for each x ∈ X:

0 ≤ max{t A+ I B ( x ) − t A−I B ( x ), f A+I B ( x ) − f A−I B ( x )} ≤ π A+I B ( x ) − π A−I B ( x ) = t A+ I B ( x ) − t A− I B ( x ) + f A+I B ( x ) − f A−I B ( x ) .

Therefore, A I B is GIVIFS. Obviously, A U B is also GIVIFS. Theorem 2 show that GIVIFS is a closed algebraic system for complement operation, intersection operation and union operation, and it is the same as FS, IFS, and IVIFS on this algebraic property.
