abstract: |
This paper is a continuation of our previous work on
Pearson's coefficient r and we discuss here the concept
of the Spearman correlation coefficient and the Kendall
correlation coefficient between Atanassov's intuitionistic fuzzy sets (A-IFSs, for short) to measure the degree
of association between the A-IFSs when the assumption
that the data distributions are normal is not valid or when
data are in the form of ranks. |
