1. Introduction
The concept of "fuzzy sets" was initially proposed by Zadeh (Zadeh, 1965) (Zadeh,
1965), which opened the door for set theory researchers. Many versions and
generalizations of fuzzy sets have appeared to solve problems such as multi-criteria
decision-making, recognition of patterns and diagnosis of diseases (Broumi, Ajay, et
al., 2022) (Ashraf et al., 2022; Broumi, Sundareswaran, et al., 2022) waste
management (Zhumadillayeva et al., 2020) and voltage balancing (Taghieh et al.,
2022). Applications of the fuzzy systems to some other areas can be studied (Gulzar,
Alghazzawi, et al., 2020; Gulzar, Mateen, et al., 2020; Kausar, 2019; Kausar et al.,
2020; Riaz et al., 2022b). Due to the appearance of fuzzy sets and their associated
systems as problem-solving tools in MCDM (Abbas et al., n.d.; Abdullah, 2013;
Kahraman, 2008) and other disciplines of our daily life, more people were attracted
towards this area of research. Theoretical mathematicians use this idea to generalize
well-known mathematical structures. For example, Rosenfeld used it to develop a
fuzzy group structure and generalize the classical group. This was the initial
development of fuzzy group theory. Liu introduced fuzzy rings and studied various
properties of rings and ideals in a fuzzy context. Within a few years, the fuzzification
of algebraic structures became a hot topic within the research community.
Researchers developed more fuzzy algebraic structures like fuzzy modules, fuzzy
algebras, fuzzy sub near rings etc. were developed [see (Al-Husban, 2021; Fathi &
Salleh, 2009; Hur et al., 2005; Rahman & Saikia, 2012; Zhan & Ma, 2005)]. Salah
Abuzaid was the first who introduced the notion of fuzzy sub near-rings (Abou-Zaid,
1991) and later, its variants were studied(Asif et al., 2020; Hussain et al., 2022).
The concept of multisets is initiated by Yager (Yager, 1986). The multi-fuzzy
groups were proposed by T. K. Shinoj et al. [see (Dresher & Ore, 1938; Shinoj et al.,
2015)]. They studied the basic properties of multi-fuzzy groups and presented a few
preliminary results. The fuzzy versions of multi-subrings and their ideals were
established by L. Sujatha (Sujatha, 2014) in 2014. She also proved that the finite
multi-fuzzy subrings (ideals) intersection is a multi-fuzzy subring (ideal). Fuzzy
multi-near-rings and their associated multi-ideals were introduced by Tahan et al.
(Al Tahan et al., 2021) in 2021. They defined various operations on multi-ideals of
fuzzy near-rings. They presented foundational results related to fuzzy multi sub-
near-rings, fuzzy multi-ideals and the operations defined on multi-ideals. The anti-
fuzzy multi-ideals of near-rings were considered by Hoskova (Hoskova-Mayerova &
Al Tahan, 2021).
One of the well-known generalizations of fuzzy sets is the intuitionistic fuzzy set
proposed by Atanassov(Atanassov, 1986). Renowned mathematicians also use this
set to fuzzify algebraic structures. Fathi was the first to describe the notion
intuitionistic fuzzy group (Fathi & Salleh, 2009) Consequently, the intuitionistic
versions of groups, rings, ideals, modules, near-rings etc., have been established (Hur
et al., 2005). Many researchers (Kausar & Waqar, 2019; Kousar et al., 2021, 2022;
Riaz et al., 2022a) used intuitionistic fuzzy sets and developed different structures.
These included triangular intuitionistic fuzzy linear programming, lattice-valued
intuitionistic fuzzy subgroup type-3, algebraic codes over lattice-valued intuitionistic
fuzzy type-3 submodules, codes over lattice-valued intuitionistic fuzzy set type-3,
non-associative ordered semi-groups by intuitionistic fuzzy bi ideals. Others further
developed different versions of intuitionistic fuzzy sets, such as complex
intuitionistic fuzzy sets in group theory and t-intuitionistic fuzzy subgroups(Gulzar,
Alghazzawi, et al., 2020; Gulzar, Mateen, et al., 2020). It also encompasses the finite

intuitionistic anti-fuzzy normal subrings’ direct product (Kausar, 2019) intuitionistic
fuzzy normal subrings (Shah et al., 2012).
The primary purpose of this study is to find the connections between multi-fuzzy
near-rings and intuitionistic fuzzy sets. For this, we first define intuitionistic fuzzy
multi-near-rings (IFM𝑁𝑅s) and ideals associated with this structure. We also define
the basic operations and study the critical properties of this structure. Moreover, we
study the support and 󰇛󰇜 level subsets of IFM𝑁𝑅s and produce a few related
results. This work contributes to the fuzzy set theory and fuzzy algebra, which are
extensively used to solve multi-criteria decision-making and pattern recognition
problems (Kaharman et. al., 2008).
2. Motivation and Scope
Fuzzy sets and associated systems deal with theoretical and practical problems
equipped with incomplete, uncertain or ambiguous data. Although this is a very
young discipline started with the work of L. A. Zadeh but gained the attention of
many researchers quickly. The reason is that it can be directly applied to theoretical
and daily life problems, including Multi-criteria decision-making, Pattern
recognition, disease diagnosis and Management. So it is worth studying the fuzzy
systems to produce more sufficient and adequate theoretical bases used to develop
better problem-solving tools. This article also proposes a fuzzy algebraic system
intuitionistic fuzzy multi-near-rings, a generalization of well-known fuzzy multi-
near-rings.
3. Preliminaries
This study first recalls some basic definitions of fuzzy and multi-fuzzy sets.
Definition 2.1: Let 𝒩 be a non-empty set, then a fuzzy set 󰆻 is given by an ordered
pair (Zadeh, 1965) 󰆻󰇝󰆻󰇛󰇜󰇞
󰆻 is the degree of membership, and󰆻󰇟󰇠 is the membership function.
Example 1. If󰇝󰐂󰇞 then 󰆻󰇝󰇛󰇜󰇛󰇜󰇛󰐂󰇜󰇞 be fuzzy set of.
Definition 2.2: Let 𝒩 be a set that is not empty. An intuitionistic fuzzy set will be
(Atanassov, 1986) 󰆻󰇝󰆻󰇛󰇜󰆻󰇛󰇜󰇞
Where󰆻and 󰆻 are the degrees of membership and non-membership function,
respectively, they are defined as󰆻󰇟󰇠 and󰆻󰇟󰇠.
For each  󰆻󰇛󰇜󰆻󰇛󰇜.
Remark 1. Every fuzzy set is an intuitionistic fuzzy set.
Definition 2.3: Let be a non-empty set, then be a multiset drawn from,
characterized by a count function , where  represent the number of
repetition of an element in and is set of positive integers (Yager, 1987, Hoskova
et. al., 2020).
Let󰇝󰇞 be a set; then a multiset will be represented as
󰇝󰣿󰣿󰣿󰣿󰇞where󰣿󰇝󰣿󰣿󰣿󰣿󰇞 represents the
number of repetition of an element in.

Example 2. Let󰇝󰐂󰇞 be a set, then 󰇝󰐂󰇞 is a multiset, and it can
also be represented as󰇝 

Definition 2.4: Per Tahan et al. (2021), let be a non-empty set then a fuzzy
multiset constructed from can be represented as;
󰇝󰇛󰇛󰇜󰇜
Where  represents the count membership function, here is a set of all
crisp multisets which is constructed from unit interval 󰇟󰇠 and for each,
󰇛󰇜 is a decreasingly ordered sequence that is

󰇛󰇜
󰇛󰇜

󰇛󰇜.
Definition 2.5: Let be a non-empty set. An intuitionistic version of a fuzzy multiset
can be represented (Onasanya et. al., 2019);
󰇝󰇛󰇜󰇛󰇜󰇞
 represents the count membership function, and 
shows the count non-membership function. Here is a set of all crisp multisets
which is constructed from unit interval 󰇟󰇠, and for each, 󰇛󰇜 is a
decreasingly ordered sequence that is 

󰇛󰇜󰇛󰇜.
Remark 2. 󰇛󰇜is ordered decreasingly, but the corresponding 󰇛󰇜 may
need to be in decreasing and increasing order.
Remark 3. An intuitionistic fuzzy set on set can be treated as a particular case of
an intuitionistic fuzzy multiset, if 󰇛󰇜
󰇛󰇜󰇛󰇜

5. Conclusion
This study constructed the concept of intuitionistic multi-fuzzy near-rings and
intuitionistic multi-fuzzy ideals. It explored and illustrated some properties related
to intuitionistic multi-fuzzy near-rings and intuitionistic multi-fuzzy ideals.
Moreover, it investigated the support, level subsets and Cartesian product of
intuitionistic multi-fuzzy near-rings and ideals. It established results associated with
all these new constructions. This work contributes to fuzzy set theory, widely used in
multi-criteria decision-making and pattern recognition problems. In the future, one
may extend these notions to AI-related decision-making and pattern recognition
research. Alternatively, extending to inter-valued fuzzy systems or applying the
intuitionistic multi-fuzzy idea to vector spaces and modules is possible.

... The larger the volume of production, the more difficult it is to make decisions when managing it, i.e., the problems of formalization and solving decision-making problems become relevant. The authors of [21,22] proposed decision-making methods for incomplete data based on the intuitionistic fuzzy approach, which allow making more adequate decisions in a fuzzy environment. The problems of fuzzy optimization and fuzzy decision making are studied in [23,24], where methods for their solution are proposed based on the α-level set of fuzzy set theories. ...
... These systems are a set of interconnected technological units with various streams and functioning as a whole, in which the chemical and physical processes of oil refining proceed and are often characterized by the fuzziness of some part of the initial information. To effectively control the operating modes of technological systems in a fuzzy environment, it is necessary to develop heuristic decision-making methods [3,22,31], that, based on models of the control object, allow DMs to choose the best operating mode. ...
... To deal with the periodicity of data, complex I v IFS [16] has been initiated as an extension of complex FS [17] and complex IFS [18]. Recently, Das et al. [19], Batool et al.

Academics encounter a challenge regulating data-driven unpredictability in numerous complicated decision scenarios. Regulating the cyclical nature of appraisal attributes, determining lower and higher limitations, granting multi-parametric values as a means of assessing argumentation, and modeling uncertainty are a few examples of these problems. It requires the incorporation of complex plane settings, interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy settings, and hypersoft settings. Inspired by these kinds of scenarios, the goal of this research was to articulate a new theoretical framework, the interval-valued complex intuitionistic fuzzy hypersoft set (Γ-set), which can handle these kinds of problems as a whole under the umbrella of a single framework. First, the concepts of Γ-set, as well as its set operations and aggregations, such as decision matrix, cardinal matrix, aggregate matrix, and cardinality set, were examined. The second phase offers an appealing algorithm that consists of nine steps that go from taking into account necessary set construction to making the best choice. A prototype case study analyzing eighteen evaluation qualities and thirty-four sub-attributes for determining an optimal cooling system (CSYS) for a factory validates the provided algorithm. Informative comparison analysis and preferred study features were provided as essential components of research to assist academics in making significant advances regarding their field and gradually, but thoroughly, advancing their specialization. 11397

The paper provided a detailed description of a new method for defining weight coefficients of criteria which is called Defining Interrelationships Between Ranked Criteria II (DIBR II). The method is based on defining significance of adjacent ranked criteria by decision-makers, respectively, experts. Based on the defined significance values, the weight coefficients of criteria are calculated using a simple mathematical apparatus. This approach eliminates certain shortcomings of previous methods which is used to calculate the weight coefficients of criteria. The application of the DIBR II method is presented using two illustrative examples.KeywordsWeight coefficients of criteriaDefining interrelationships between Ranked Criteria II (DIBR II)Multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM)

The uncertainty of intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (IFNs) is further enhanced by the existence of the degree of hesitation (DH). The shortcomings of existing researches are mainly reflected in the following situations: when comparing IFNs, the comparison rules of IFNs are difficult to apply to the comparison of any two IFNs, or the relevant methods do not fully consider the uncertainty expressed by DH. Thus, the rationality of the decision results needs to be improved. On the other hand, multi-attribute decision making (DADM) based on IFNs is often not objective due to the need to determine the attribute weight. Moreover, the strict condition of attribute aggregation of classical dominance relation makes it a method that fails considering the practical application. Aiming at the comparison problem of IFNs, this paper takes probability conversion as the starting point and proposes an IFN comparison method based on the area method, which can better deal with the comparison problem of “either superior or inferior” IFNs. In addition, aiming at the MADM problem of an intuitionistic fuzzy information system, we propose an intuitionistic fuzzy probabilistic dominance relation model and construct the MADM method under the probabilistic dominance relation. The series properties of IFNs and probabilistic dominance relation were summarized and proved, which theoretically ensured the scientificity and rigor of the method. The results show that the comparison and ranking method of IFNs proposed in this paper can be applied to the comparison of any two IFNs, and the dominance degree of IFNs is presented in the form of probability, which is more flexible and practical than the classical method. The probabilistic dominance relation method based on IFNs avoids the problem of determining attribute weights subjectively or objectively, and the decision maker can reflect decision preference by adjusting decision parameters to better match the actual problem. The application of this model to a campus express site evaluation further verifies the feasibility of the proposed method and the rationality of the results. In addition, various extension problems of the model and method proposed in this paper are discussed, which pave the way for future related research. This paper constructs a complete decision-making framework through theoretical analysis and application from practical problems, which provides a reference for enriching and improving uncertain decision-making theory and the MADM method.

Many technological systems are characterized by fuzzy initial information, necessary for the development of their models, optimization and control of operating modes. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to formulate decision making problems for optimizing and controlling operating modes of such systems in a fuzzy environment and to develop methods for solving them. The developed heuristic methods of fuzzy multi-criteria decision making are based on the modification and combination of different principles of optimality. The proposed methods based on system models, knowledge and experience of the decision maker allow iterative improvement and effective decision making. On the basis of experimental–statistical methods, methods of expert evaluation, statistical and fuzzy models of the stabilization column have been developed. The conditions for judging the fuzzy model’s effectiveness are determined and investigated. Using the proposed heuristic method based on the main criterion and maximin, the problem of two-criterion optimization of the stabilization column parameters in a fuzzy environment is solved. The results obtained confirm the advantages of the proposed method of fuzzy decision making in comparison with the results of known methods. The developed heuristic methods differ from known ones because they allow making adequate decisions in a fuzzy environment by maximizing the use of the collected fuzzy information.

In the last few decades, the algebraic coding theory found widespread applications in various disciplines due to its rich fascinating mathematical structure. Linear codes, the basic codes in coding theory, are signi cant in data transmission. In this article, the authors' aim is to enlighten the reader about the role of linear codes in a fuzzy environment. us, the reader will be aware of linear codes over lattice valued intuitionistic fuzzy type-3 (LIF-3) R-submodule and α-intuitionistic fuzzy (α-IF) submodule. e proof that the level set of LIF-3 is contained in the level set of α-IF is given, and it is exclusively employed to de ne linear codes over α-IF submodule. Further, α-IF cyclic codes are presented along with their fundamental properties. Finally, an application based on genetic code is presented, and it is found that the technique of de ning codes over α-IF submodule is entirely applicable in this scenario. More speci cally, a mapping from the Z 64 module to a lattice L (comprising 64 codons) is considered, and α-IF codes are de ned along with the respective degrees.

A lot of fuzzy models have been planned and researched to review the information under uncertainty and ambiguity. Among these, the model of the interval-valued picture fuzzy set (IVPFS) is very important which can explain the information by four possibilities in the opinion of experts using a membership degree (MD), non-membership degree (NMD), abstinence degree (AD), and a refusal degree (RD) in the form of intervals. The gathering of data is difficult all the time, particularly when the difference of opinions is connected. Due to these four degrees, the use of IVPFS is the best technique to obtain the maximum information while gathering the data from the phenomenon of the real life. This article aims to explore the idea of a Maclaurin symmetric mean (MSM) operator in the framework of IVPFS. In this article, we have studied MSM in the framework of IVPFSs and discussed their application in picking the most suitable company benefit plan (CBP) using interval-valued picture fuzzy (IVPF) data. The proposed operators IVPF MSM (IVPFMSM), IVPF weighted MSM (IVPFWMSM), IVPF dual MSM (IVPFDMSM), and IVPF dual weighted MSM (IVPFDWMSM) operators are found trustworthy with the basic properties. Finally, to show the importance and significance of proposed method, a numerical example has been provided and results have been compared with some existing operators.

The twin-spool turbofan engine is an important component of almost every modern aircraft. Fault detection at an early stage can improve engine performance and health. The current research is based on the construction of an inference system for fault diagnosis in a generalized fuzzy environment. For such an inference system, finite-state deterministic intuitionistic fuzzy automata (FDIFA) are established. A semigroup of FDIFA and its algebraic properties including substructures and structure-preserving maps are studied. The FDIFA semigroups are used as variables for the inference system, and FDIFA semigroup homomorphisms are used to indicate the relation between variables. The newly established model is then applied to diagnose the possible fault and their nature in aircraft twin-spool turbofan engines by modelling the performance of the supercharger and air cooler.

A picture fuzzy set (PFS) is an augmentation of Atanassov’s intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS). The PFS-based models are useful in the circumstances when we face uncertain and vague information, especially in the case when we need more answers of the form “indeed,” “avoid,” “no,” and “refusal.” It has been considered as an essential tool to deal with unsure data during an investigation. In this manuscript, we explore the idea of a picture fuzzy near-ring (PFNR) and a picture fuzzy ideal (PFI) of a near-ring (NR). We illustrate some basic properties such as union, intersection, homomorphic image, and preimage of PFIs of a NR. Furthermore, there is discussion about the direct product of PFIs of a NR.

Current sharing and voltage balancing problems of direct current microgrids (DC-MGs) include distributed generation units (DGUs) connected by a communication network. The main challenge is that the microgrid (MG) system is prone to unknown dynamic models and external disturbances. The voltage at each DGU’s point of coupling (PC) follows a desired voltage while exchanging the information of the DGU filter current with the nearest neighbors. This study proposes a novel hybrid control scheme containing a type-3 fuzzy-based controller. To enhance the accuracy, a learning scheme is designed based on a correntropy unscented Kalman filter (CUKF) with fuzzy kernel size. Utilizing the approximation technique and merging the consensus-based secondary control policy with the proposed type-3 fuzzy-logic systems (T3FLS) result in the balanced voltages of the closed-loop DC-MG. The convergence of voltages of the DC-MG, the stability of the approximation error signals, and the appropriate transient responses are verified through simulations. Furthermore, the robustness of the voltages and currents in versus of exogenous disturbances admits the efficiency of the suggested learning-based fuzzy control policy. The results confirm that the suggested controller can be used in real MGs

In recent years, fuzzy multisets have become a subject of great interest for researchers and have been widely applied to algebraic structures including groups, rings, and many other algebraic structures. In this paper, we introduce the algebraic structure of fuzzy multisets as fuzzy multi-subnear rings (multi-ideals) of near rings. In this regard, we define different operations on fuzzy multi-ideals of near rings and we generalize some results known for fuzzy ideals of near rings to fuzzy multi-ideals of near rings.
