About this book

Frontiers of Higher Order Fuzzy Sets, provides a unified representation theorem for higher order fuzzy sets. The book elaborates on the concept of gradual elements and their integration with the higher order fuzzy sets. This book also is devoted to the introduction of new frameworks based on general T2FSs, IT2FSs, Gradual elements, Shadowed sets and rough sets. Such new frameworks will provide more capable frameworks for real applications. Applications of higher order fuzzy sets in various fields will be discussed. In particular, the properties and characteristics of the new proposed frameworks would be studied. Such frameworks that are the result of the integration of general T2FSs, IT2FSs, gradual elements, shadowed sets and rough sets will be shown to be suitable to be applied in the fields of bioinformatics, business,  management, ambient intelligence, medicine, cloud computing and smart grids.
