A note on decision making in medical investigations using new divergence measures for intuitionistic fuzzy sets.

Srivastava and Maheshwari (Iranian Journal of Fuzzy Systems 13(1) (2016) 25-44) introduced a new divergence measure for intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFSs). The properties of the proposed divergence measure were studied and the efficiency of the proposed divergence measure in the context of medical diagnosis was also demonstrated. In this note, we point out some errors in the proving process of two properties of the proposed divergence measure. Then we give a modification of the proving process. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
