Abstract
The present work aims to extend the classical Neyman–Pearson lemma based on a random sample of exact observations to test intuitionistic fuzzy hypotheses. In this approach, we extend the concepts of type-I error, type-II and power of test. Some applied examples are provided to illustrate the proposed method. In addition, the proposed method is examined to be compared with an existing method.
