Measuring the Amount of Knowledge for Atanassov's Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets

We address the problem of how to measure amount of knowledge conveyed by an Atanassov's intuitionistic fuzzy set (A-IFS for short). The problem is useful from the point of view of a specific purpose, notably related to decision making. An amount of knowledge is strongly linked to its related amount of information. We pay particular attention to the relationship between the positive and negative information and a lack of information expressed by the hesitation margin.
