Making decisions are very common in the modern socio-economic environments. However, with the increasing complexity of the social, today’s decision makers (DMs) face such problems in which they hesitate and irresolute to provide their views. To cope with these uncertainties, many generalizations of fuzzy sets are designed, among them dual hesitant fuzzy set (DHFS) is quite resourceful and efficient in solving problems of a more vague nature. In this article, a novel concept called proportional dual hesitant fuzzy set (PDHFS) is proposed to further improve DHFS. The PDHFS is a flexible tool composed of some possible membership values and some possible non-membership values along with their associated proportions. In the theme of PDHFS, the proportions of membership values and non-membership values are considered to be independent. Some basic operations, properties, distance measure and comparison method are studied for the proposed set. Thereafter, a novel approach based on PDHFSs is developed to solve problems for multi-attribute group decision-making (MAGDM) in a fuzzy situation. It is totally different from the traditional approach. Finally, a practical example is given in order to elaborate the proposed method for the selection of the best alternative and detailed comparative analysis is given in order to validate the practicality.

The concept of trapezoidal valued hesitant fuzzy set is introduced. Notion for distance between any two trapezoidal valued hesitant fuzzy elements is given. Using this proposed distance measure, we extend the technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution for trapezoidal valued hesitant fuzzy sets. An example is constructed to show usefulness of this extension for multicriteria group decision making, where the opinions about the criteria values are expressed as trapezoidal valued hesitant fuzzy set.

Probabilistic hesitant fuzzy Set (PHFs) is the most powerful and comprehensive idea to support more complexity than developed fuzzy set (FS) frameworks. In this paper, it can explain a novel, improved TOPSIS-based method for multi-criteria group decision-making (MCGDM) problem through the Probabilistic hesitant fuzzy environment, in which the weights of both experts and criteria are completely unknown. Firstly, we discuss the concept of PHFs, score functions and the basic operating laws of PHFs. In fact, to compute the unknown weight information, the generalized distance measure for PHFs was defined based on the Probabilistic hesitant fuzzy entropy measure. Second, MCGDM will be presented with the PHF information-based decision-making process.

As a powerful generalization to fuzzy set, hesitant fuzzy set (HFS) was introduced, which provided multiple possible membership values to be associated with a specific instance. But HFS did not consider occurrence probability values, and to circumvent the issue, probabilistic HFS (PHFS) was introduced, which associates an occurrence probability value with each hesitant fuzzy element (HFE). Providing such a precise probability value is an open challenge and as a generalization to PHFS, interval-valued PHFS (IVPHFS) was proposed. IVPHFS provided flexibility to decision makers (DMs) by associating a range of values as an occurrence probability for each HFE. To enrich the usefulness of IVPHFS in multi-attribute group decision-making (MAGDM), in this paper, we extend the Muirhead mean (MM) operator to IVPHFS for aggregating preferences. The MM operator is a generalized operator that can effectively capture the interrelationship between multiple attributes. Some properties of the proposed operator are also discussed. Then, a new programming model is proposed for calculating the weights of attributes using DMs’ partial information. Later, a systematic procedure is presented for MAGDM with the proposed operator and the practical use of the operator is demonstrated by using a renewable energy source selection problem. Finally, the strengths and weaknesses of the proposal are discussed in comparison with other methods.

Chen dan Xu memperkenalkan tentang relasi preference hesitant bernilai interval dalam proses pengambilan keputusan kelompok(Group Decision Making/GDM ) [2]. Pada proses GDM digunakan operator-operator untuk mengumpulkan informasi Interval-valued Hesitant Fuzzy Set (IVHFS) [2]. Konsep himpunan kabur hesitant bernilai interval banyak digunakan pada teori pengambilan keputusan. akan tetapi pada penelitian ini hanya dibatasi kajian aljabar yaitu dikaji tentang sifat-sifat operasi pada elemen kabur hesitant bernilai interval dan bentuk operator-operator pada IVHFS. Operasi ring sum, ring product, irisan dan gabungan pada elemen kabur hesitant bernilai interval memenuhi sifat-sifat aljabar yaitu sifat komutatif, sifat asosiatif, sifat distributif. Bentuk operator-operator pada himpunan kabur hesitant bernilai interval yaitu operator GIVHFWA, GIVHFWG dan operator GIVHFOWA, GIVHFOWG.Kata Kunci :himpunan kabur hesitant bernilai interval, sifat-sifat operasi, operator

In order to determine the membership of an element to a set owing to ambiguity between a few different values, the hesitant fuzzy set (HFS) has been proposed and widely diffused to deal with vagueness and uncertainty involved in the process of multiple criteria group decision making (MCGDM) problems. In this paper, we develop novel definitions of score function and distance measure for HFSs. Some examples are given to illustrate that the proposed definitions are more reasonable than the traditional ones. Furthermore, our study extends the MULTIMOORA (Multiple Objective Optimization on the basis of Ratio Analysis plus Full Multiplicative Form) method with HFSs. The proposed method thus provides the means for multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) regarding uncertain assessments. Utilization of hesitant fuzzy power aggregation operators also enables facilitating the process of MCGDM. A numerical example of software selection demonstrates the possibilities of application of the proposed method.

This paper investigates multiple attribute group decision making (MAGDM) with hesitant fuzzy preference information, which is a significantly import issue to be deeply studied in management and industrial engineering. Firstly, simultaneously considering optimistic and pessimistic attitudinal preference information, an improved distance measure for hesitant fuzzy set is defined. Then, utilizing the newly defined distance measure, a hesitant fuzzy multiple attribute group decision making approach based on TOPSIS method is constructed, which can effectively avoid high complexity of aggregating hesitant fuzzy information in traditional methods. Further, an application study on parts supplier selection has verified the practically and effectiveness of developed methods.

AbstractThe linguistic Pythagorean fuzzy sets (LPFSs), which employ linguistic terms to express membership and non-membership degrees, can effectively deal with decision makers’ complicated evaluation values in the process of multiple attribute group decision-making (MAGDM). To improve the ability of LPFSs in depicting fuzzy information, this paper generalized LPFSs to cubic LPFSs (CLPFSs) and studied CLPFSs-based MAGDM method. First, the definition, operational rules, comparison method and distance measure of CLPFSs are investigated. The CLPFSs fully adsorb the advantages of LPFSs and cubic fuzzy sets and hence they are suitable and flexible to depict attribute values in fuzzy and complicated decision-making environments. Second, based on the extension of power Hamy mean operator in CLPFSs, the cubic linguistic Pythagorean fuzzy power average operator, the cubic linguistic Pythagorean fuzzy power Hamy mean operator as well as their weighted forms were introduced. These aggregation operators can effectively and comprehensively aggregate attribute values in MAGDM problems. Besides, some important properties of these operators were studied. Finally, we presented a new MAGDM method based on CLPFSs and their aggregation operators. Illustrative examples and comparative analysis are provided to show the effectiveness and advantages of our proposed decision-making method.
