abstract:
 
An axiomatic definition of divergence measure for intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFSs, for short) is presented in this work, as a particular case of dissimilarity between IFSs. As the concept of divergence measure is more restrictive, it has particular properties which are studied. Furthermore, the relationships among IF-divergences, dissimilarities and distances are studied. We also provide some methods for building divergence measure for IFSs. They will allow us to conclude this work with a classification of the usual functions used in the literature for measuring the difference between intuitionistic fuzzy sets in two classes: which are divergence measures between IFSs and which are not.
