Abstract
Using restriction levels and interval type-2 fuzzy sets into linguistic summarization evaluation is a novel strategy presented in this paper. The uncertainty and ambiguity in the linguistic summaries are handled by the suggested method by using interval type 2 fuzzy sets. While it complies with the requirements that evaluation methods should meet, the suggested method additionally makes use of restriction levels to offer a more reliable evaluation framework. On the basis of real-world data, the proposed method’s efficacy is shown. The findings demonstrate that the suggested approach can offer a thorough and precise evaluation of the linguistic summary techniques. The suggested method can assist practitioners and researchers in evaluating linguistic summaries results in a simple yet consistent fashion.
