Abstract

Intuitionistic fuzzy sets prove very useful in modelling uncertain and imprecise information when in the evaluations, concerned with a bipolar type of evidence, the “pro” and “contra” estimations do not sum to one (truth) but there is a degree of uncertainty. Relying on the concept of IF-neighbourhoods, introduced in Marinov et al. (On intuitionistic fuzzy metric neighbourhoods, 2015), we propose in this paper a few notions of separability between intuitionistic fuzzy sets and give some applications employing the extended modal operators.
