Abstract

Soft set theory, proposed by Molodtsov, has been regarded as an effective mathematical tool to deal with uncertainties. In this paper, the notion of soft relation is introduced which is a generalization of the notion of soft set relation, and some related properties are examined. Furthermore, the connections between soft relations and fuzzy sets are analyzed. It is shown that fuzzy relation and fuzzy soft set may be considered as special cases of soft relation.
