An Inclusion Measure of Fuzzy Sets and its Properties

Article Preview

Abstract:

The inclusion measure between two fuzzy sets can promote fuzzy logic methods to play their full roles and has been widely used in numerous areas. In this paper, we propose a new inclusion measure of fuzzy sets. At first, we select an axiomatic definition included three axioms. Then, we give a computation formula under the constraint of three axioms, and discuss two properties of the new measure. At last, two examples are given to verify its performance. The results show that the proposed inclusion measure is reliable and rational for fuzzy sets.
