Abstract
Measuring the similarity between fuzzy sets plays a vital role in several fields. However, none of all well-known similarity measure methods is all-powerful, and all have the localization of its usage. This paper defines some operations on the similarity measures of fuzzy sets such as summation and multiplication of two similarity measures. Also, these operations will be generalized to any number of similarity measures. These operations will be very useful especially in the field of computer vision, and data retrieval because these fields need to combine and find some relations between similarity measures.
