Research on the Improvement of Intuitionistic Fuzzy Entropy Measurement Based on TOPSIS Method and Its Application

Aiming at the problem that existing intuitionistic fuzzy entropy measures fail to fully balance the interaction between intuition (determined by hesitation degree) and fuzziness (characterized by the difference between membership degree and non-membership degree), this paper proposes the concept of isentropic arc, reveals the mutual offset effect of the two in entropy composition, and provides a new theoretical perspective for the planar analysis of entropy measures. Further research finds that there are maximum and minimum entropy points in the intuitionistic fuzzy entropy plane. Based on this, two different types of isentropic arcs can be constructed. Combining this feature with the core logic of approaching the ideal solution, this paper constructs a new intuitionistic fuzzy entropy measure formula based on the TOPSIS method. This formula can characterize the synergistic influence of intuition and fuzziness at the same time, meets all the constraints of the axiomatic definition, and is more suitable for the needs of actual decision-making scenarios. Comparative analysis of numerical examples shows that the proposed new entropy measure has significantly better discrimination than existing methods for six groups of samples with a high hesitation degree and high fuzziness, and the entropy value ranking is consistent with the ranking of the uncertainty information contained in the samples. Finally, the weight decision-making model based on this entropy measure is applied to the evaluation of coal mine emergency rescue capability, verifying its practical value in solving complex uncertainty problems.

Abstract

Aiming at the problem that existing intuitionistic fuzzy entropy measures fail to fully balance the interaction between intuition (determined by hesitation degree) and fuzziness (characterized by the difference between membership degree and non-membership degree), this paper proposes the concept of isentropic arc, reveals the mutual offset effect of the two in entropy composition, and provides a new theoretical perspective for the planar analysis of entropy measures. Further research finds that there are maximum and minimum entropy points in the intuitionistic fuzzy entropy plane. Based on this, two different types of isentropic arcs can be constructed. Combining this feature with the core logic of approaching the ideal solution, this paper constructs a new intuitionistic fuzzy entropy measure formula based on the TOPSIS method. This formula can characterize the synergistic influence of intuition and fuzziness at the same time, meets all the constraints of the axiomatic definition, and is more suitable for the needs of actual decision-making scenarios. Comparative analysis of numerical examples shows that the proposed new entropy measure has significantly better discrimination than existing methods for six groups of samples with a high hesitation degree and high fuzziness, and the entropy value ranking is consistent with the ranking of the uncertainty information contained in the samples. Finally, the weight decision-making model based on this entropy measure is applied to the evaluation of coal mine emergency rescue capability, verifying its practical value in solving complex uncertainty problems.
