| Abstract:
|
In this paper, a new technique is proposed for evaluating the functional capacity of the elbow joint. The method is based on intuitionistic fuzzy sets and interval valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets. The fact that in decision making, particularly in the case of orthopedic physical assessment, there is a fair chance of the existence of a non-zero hesitation part at each moment of evaluation means that the deterministic (hesitation) part has an important role here since it is not always possible to estimate satisfactory membership and non-membership values.
