Literature Review on Vague Set Theory in Different Domains

Abstract

Problem of decision making is a crucial task in every business. This decision making job is found very difficult when it is depends on the imprecise and vague environment, which is frequent in recent years. Vague sets are an extension of Fuzzy sets. In the fuzzy sets, each object is assigned a single value in the interval [0,1] reflecting its grade of membership. This single value does not allow a separation of evidence for membership and evidence against membership. Gau et al. proposed the notion of vague sets, where each object is characterized by two different membership functions: a true membership function and a false membership function. This kind of reasoning is also called interval membership, as opposed to point membership in the context of fuzzy sets. In this paper, reviews the related works on the decision making by using vague sets in different fields
