An Innovative Approach on Yao’s Three-Way Decision Model Using Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets for Medical Diagnosis

Abstract

In the realm of medical diagnosis, intuitionistic fuzzy data serves as a valuable tool for representing information that is uncertain and imprecise. Nevertheless, decision-making based on this kind of knowledge can be quite challenging due to the inherent vagueness of the data. To address this issue, we employ power aggregation operators, which prove effective in combining several sources of data, such as expert thoughts and patient information. This allows for a more correct diagnosis; a particularly crucial aspect of medical practice where precise and timely diagnoses can significantly impact medication policy and patient results. In our research, we introduce a novel methodology to the three-way decision idea. Initially, we revamp the three-way decision model using rough set theory and incorporate interval-valued classes to handle intuitionistic fuzzy data. Secondly, we explore the use of intuitionistic fuzzy power weighted and intuitionistic fuzzy power weighted geometric aggregation operators to consolidate attribute values within the data system. Furthermore, we present a case study in the medical field to exhibit the validity and efficiency of our offered technique. This innovative method enables us to classify participants into three distinct zones based on their symptoms. The manuscript concludes with a summary of key points provided by the authors.
