The objective of this study was to create a logarithmic decision-making approach to deal with uncertainty in the form of a picture fuzzy set. Firstly, we define the logarithmic picture fuzzy number and define the basic operations. As a generalization of the sets, the picture fuzzy set provides a more profitable method to express the uncertainties in the data to deal with decision making problems. Picture fuzzy aggregation operators have a vital role in fuzzy decision-making problems. In this study, we propose a series of logarithmic aggregation operators: logarithmic picture fuzzy weighted averaging/geometric and logarithmic picture fuzzy ordered weighted averaging/geometric aggregation operators and characterized their desirable properties. Finally, a novel algorithm technique was developed to solve multi-attribute decision making (MADM) problems with picture fuzzy information. To show the superiority and the validity of the proposed aggregation operations, we compared it with the existing method, and concluded from the comparison and sensitivity analysis that our proposed technique is more effective and reliable.

Multi Attribute Decision Making

Intuitionistic fuzzy sets can describe the uncertainty and complexity of the world flexibly, so it has been widely used in multi-attribute decision making. Traditional intuitionistic fuzzy aggregation operators are usually based on the probability measure, namely, they consider that the attributes of objects are independent. But in actual situations, it is difficult to ensure the independence of attributes, so these operators are unsuitable in such situations. Fuzzy measure is able to depict the relationships among the attributes more comprehensively, so it can complement the traditional probability measure in dealing with the multi-attribute decision making problems. In this paper, we first analyze the existing intuitionistic fuzzy operators based on fuzzy measure, then introduce two novel additive intuitionistic fuzzy aggregation operators based on the Shapley value and the Choquet integral, respectively, and show their advantages over other ones.

Interval Valued

Expressing the measure of uncertainty, in terms of an interval instead of a crisp number, provides improved results in fuzzy mathematics. Several such concepts are established, including the interval-valued fuzzy set, the interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy set, and the interval-valued picture fuzzy set. The goal of this article is to enhance the T-spherical fuzzy set (TSFS) by introducing the interval-valued TSFS (IVTSFS), which describes the uncertainty measure in terms of the membership, abstinence, non-membership, and the refusal degree. The novelty of the IVTSFS over the pre-existing fuzzy structures is analyzed. The basic operations are proposed for IVTSFSs and their properties are investigated. Two aggregation operators for IVTSFSs are developed, including weighted averaging and weighted geometric operators, and their validity is examined using the induction method. Several consequences of new operators, along with their comparative studies, are elaborated. A multi-attribute decision-making method in the context of IVTSFSs is developed, followed by a brief numerical example where the selection of the best policy, among a list of investment policies of a multinational company, is to be evaluated. The advantages of using the framework of IVTSFSs are described theoretically and numerically, hence showing the limitations of pre-existing aggregation operators.

<abstract> <p>The most important influence of this assessment is to analyze some new operational laws based on confidential levels (CLs) for complex Pythagorean fuzzy (CPF) settings. Moreover, to demonstrate the closeness between finite numbers of alternatives, the conception of confidence CPF weighted averaging (CCPFWA), confidence CPF ordered weighted averaging (CCPFOWA), confidence CPF weighted geometric (CCPFWG), and confidence CPF ordered weighted geometric (CCPFOWG) operators are invented. Several significant features of the invented works are also diagnosed. Moreover, to investigate the beneficial optimal from a large number of alternatives, a multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) analysis is analyzed based on CPF data. A lot of examples are demonstrated based on invented works to evaluate the supremacy and ability of the initiated works. For massive convenience, the sensitivity analysis and merits of the identified works are also explored with the help of comparative analysis and they're graphical shown.</p> </abstract>

Heronian Mean

As an extension of the intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS), the recently proposed picture fuzzy set (PFS) is more suitable to describe decision-makers’ evaluation information in decision-making problems. Picture fuzzy aggregation operators are of high importance in multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) within a picture fuzzy decision-making environment. Hence, in this paper our main work is to introduce novel picture fuzzy aggregation operators. Firstly, we propose new picture fuzzy operational rules based on Dombi t-conorm and t-norm (DTT). Secondly, considering the existence of a broad and widespread correlation between attributes, we use Heronian mean (HM) information aggregation technology to fuse picture fuzzy numbers (PFNs) and propose new picture fuzzy aggregation operators. The proposed operators not only fuse individual attribute values, but also have a good ability to model the widespread correlation among attributes, making them more suitable for effectively solving increasingly complicated MADM problems. Hence, we introduce a new algorithm to handle MADM based on the proposed operators. Finally, we apply the newly developed method and algorithm in a supplier selection issue. The main novelties of this work are three-fold. Firstly, new operational laws for PFSs are proposed. Secondly, novel picture fuzzy aggregation operators are developed. Thirdly, a new approach for picture fuzzy MADM is proposed.

States Of Nature

In this paper, new generalizations of the probabilistic averaging operator — Associated Fuzzy Probabilistic Averaging (As-PA and As-FPA) and Immediate Probabilistic Fuzzy Ordered Weighted Averaging (As-IP-OWA and As-IP-FOWA) operators are presented in the environment of fuzzy uncertainty. An uncertainty is presented by associated probabilities of a fuzzy measure. Expert’s evaluations as arguments of the aggregation operators are described by a variable, values of which are compatibility levels on the states of nature defined in positive real or triangular fuzzy numbers (TFNs). Two propositions on the As-FPA operator are proved: (1) The As-FPA operator for the fuzzy measure — capacity of order two coincides with the finite Choquet Averaging (CA) Operator; (2) the As-FPA operator coincides with the FPA operator when a probability measure is used in the role of a fuzzy measure. Analogous propositions for the As-IP-FOWA operator are proved. Some propositions on the connection of the As-FPA and As-IP-FOWA operators are also proved. Information measures — Orness and Divergence for the constructed operators are defined. Some propositions on the connections of these parameters with the corresponding parameters of the finite CA Operator are proved. Two illustrative examples on the applicability of the As-FPA and As-IP-FOWA operators are presented: (1) Several variants of the As-FPA and As-IP-FOWA operators are used for comparison of decision-making results for the problems regarding the fiscal policy of a country; (2) The As-FPA operator is used in the Multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) problem of choosing the best version of the students’ project.

Do So

For intuitionistic fuzzy values (IFVs), there are more or less some drawbacks in the existing comparison methods, so it is necessary for us to develop a more proper technique for comparing or ranking IFVs in this paper. To do so, we first formalize an IFV as a fuzzy subset in order to analyze the fuzzy meaning of an IFV, and then according to the basic properties of the fuzzy subset, we determine the dominance relation (order relation) between two IFVs by defining a dominance degree. In order to explain the feasibility of the dominance relations, we validate the monotonicity of intuitionistic fuzzy operational laws, and additionally, we improve and prove the monotonicity of several intuitionistic fuzzy aggregation operators on the basis of the dominance relations. Because it is of importance for some practical problems (e.g., intuitionistic fuzzy multi-attribute decision making) to rank IFVs, we finally develop a method for ranking IFVs by constructing a dominance matrix based on the dominance degrees. A simple example is taken to illustrate the validity of our ranking method.
