Bipolar Intuitionistic Fuzzy Soft Ideals of BCK/BCI-Algebras and Its Applications in Decision-Making

Abstract

In this paper, we merge the concepts of soft set theory and a bipolar intuitionistic fuzzy set. A bipolar intuitionistic fuzzy soft ideal in a BCK-algebra is defined as a soft set over the set of elements in the BCK-algebra, with each element associated with an intuitionistic fuzzy set. This relationship captures degrees of uncertainty, hesitancy, and non-membership degrees within the context of BCK-algebras. We investigate basic operations on bipolar intuitionistic fuzzy soft ideals such as union, intersection, AND, and OR. The intersection, union, AND, and OR of two bipolar intuitionistic fuzzy soft ideals is a bipolar intuitionistic fuzzy soft ideal. We also demonstrate how to use a bipolar intuitionistic fuzzy soft set to solve a problem involving decision making. Finally, we provide a general approach for handling decision-making problems using a bipolar intuitionistic fuzzy soft set.
