Abstract

This paper addresses a bimatrix game in which the satisfactory degrees of the players are vague. Type-2 fuzzy goal programming technique is used to describe the game. Then, the notion of equilibrium points is introduced and an optimization problem is given to calculate them. Moreover, the special case that the type-2 fuzzy goals are triangular is investigated. Finally, an applicable example is presented to illustrate the results.
