“…More recent literature have focused the application of fuzzy set theory and its generalizations on handling uncertainty in different domains which include: intelligent selection of supplier of medical consumption-related products [23], determination of school enrollment for students [24], aggregating expert opinions on the effective finding of Top Event (TE) in industrial processes [25], applied medical diagnosis [26], resolving uncertainties in medical prognosis and diagnosis [27], improving medical diagnosis [28], forecasting of surface roughness [29], and resolving uncertainties in medical diagnosis [30][31][32].…”

HIV still constitutes a major public health problem in Africa, where the highest incidence and prevalence of the disease can be found in many rural areas, with multiple indigenous languages being used for communication by locals. In many rural areas of the KwaZulu-Natal (KZN) in South Africa, for instance, the most widely used languages include Zulu and Xhosa, with only limited comprehension in English and Afrikaans. Health care practitioners for HIV diagnosis and treatment, often, cannot communicate efficiently with their indigenous ethnic patients. An informatics tool is urgently needed to facilitate these health care professionals for better communication with their patients during HIV diagnosis. Here, we apply fuzzy logic and speech technology and develop a fuzzy logic HIV diagnostic system with indigenous multi-lingual interfaces, named Multi-linguAl HIV indigenouS fuzzy logiC-based diagnOstic sysTem (MAVSCOT). This HIV multilingual informatics software can facilitate the diagnosis in underprivileged rural African communities. We provide examples on how MAVSCOT can be applied towards HIV diagnosis by using existing data from the literature. Compared to other similar tools, MAVSCOT can perform better due to its implementation of the fuzzy logic. We hope MAVSCOT would help health care practitioners working in indigenous communities of many African countries, to efficiently diagnose HIV and ultimately control its transmission.

“…Therefore, fuzzy sets are explored to represent uncertainty and to perform medical diagnosis as well [16]. Some recent development in medical diagnosis can also be encountered in [17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24].

Uncertainty is more or less encountered in industrial and medical systems as well. Uncertainty theory is an upgraded theory which comprises of possibility measure, necessity measure and credibility measure plays significant role in modelling uncertainty. In connection with uncertainty modeling, a special and intricate fuzzy variable viz., semi-elliptic fuzzy variable (SEFV) is thrashed out here. Subsequently, an attempt has been made to derive possibility, necessity and credibility measure of the SEFV first. Later, some other properties such as expected value, variance, rational upper bound etc are presented and based on that mean and variance ranking of SEFVs are proposed. Afterwards reliability analysis and medical diagnosis cases are carried out which exhibit the efficiency and novelty of the derived SEFV. In this work done, it is observed that the present work has the capability to resolve problems under uncertain complex situations. better to treat uncertainty and further studied by acolyte researchers such as Dubois and Prade [26], Klir [27], Yager [28] etc. Furthermore, Dubois and Prade [29] studied mean value of fuzzy numbers, Ban [30] discussed fuzzy valued measure and conditional expectations of fuzzy numbers, Heilpern [31]studied expected value of fuzzy numbers, Carlsson and Fuller [32] developed possiblistic mean and variance of fuzzy numbers, Chen and Tan [33] further developed mean value and variance of multiplication of fuzzy numbers. Nevertheless in the absence of self duality measure the earlier studies lead to the exaggeration of the reality. keeping this in mind, Liu and Liu [34] initiated a concept termed as credibility theory. Li and Liu [35] presented a sufficient and necessary condition for credibility measures. Further Liu and Liu [36] systematically studied and developed credibility theory. After that some extended studies on credibility theory can be observed in Liu [37], Zhou et al. [38], Yi et al. [39], Garai et al. [40].Although various types of fuzzy variables are encountered, however, an exceptional and intricate fuzzy variable SEFV in terms of credibility theory is not deliberated yet. This paper presents an approach to derive possibility, necessity and credibility measure of the SEFV. Furthermore, expected value, variance, rational upper bound etc of SEFV are presented. Then ranking of SEFNs through expected value and variance is proposed. Finally, novelty and applicability has been exhibited by performing reliability analysis and medical diagnosis cases.
