A note on decision making in medical investigations using new divergence measures for intuitionistic fuzzy sets

Abstract

Srivastava and Maheshwari (Iranian Journal of Fuzzy Systems 13(1)<br />(2016) 25-44) introduced a new divergence measure for intuitionistic<br />fuzzy sets (IFSs). The properties of the proposed divergence measure<br />were studied and the efficiency of the proposed divergence measure<br />in the context of medical diagnosis was also demonstrated. In this<br />note, we point out some errors in the proving process of two<br />properties of the proposed divergence measure. Then we give a<br />modification of the proving process.
