In this paper, we investigate graph theory-based clustering techniques for Atanassov's intuitionistic fuzzy sets (A-IFSs) and interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IVIFSs). We start by introducing the concepts of graph, minimum spanning tree (MST), A-IFS, and intuitionistic fuzzy distance, and develop two intuitionistic fuzzy MST clustering algorithms (Algorithms I and II). Then we extend Algorithm II for clustering IVIFSs, and show the effectiveness of our algorithms through some numerical experiments. (C) 2012 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
