Multi Attribute Decision Making

Q-rung orthopair fuzzy set (q-ROFS) is a powerful tool to describe uncertain information in the process of subjective decision-making, but not express vast objective phenomenons that obey normal distribution. For this situation, by combining the q-ROFS with the normal fuzzy number, we proposed a new concept of q-rung orthopair normal fuzzy (q-RONF) set. Firstly, we defined the conception, the operational laws, score function, and accuracy function of q-RONF set. Secondly, we presented some new aggregation operators to aggregate the q-RONF information, including the q-RONF weighted operators, the q-RONF ordered weighted operators, the q-RONF hybrid operator, and the generalized form of these operators. Furthermore, we discussed some desirable properties of the above operators, such as monotonicity, commutativity, and idempotency. Meanwhile, we applied the proposed operators to the multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) problem and established a novel MADM method. Finally, the proposed MADM method was applied in a numerical example on enterprise partner selection, the numerical result showed the proposed method can effectively handle the objective phenomena with obeying normal distribution and complicated fuzzy information, and has high practicality. The results of comparative and sensitive analysis indicated that our proposed method based on q-RONF aggregation operators over existing methods have stronger information aggregation ability, and are more suitable and flexible for MADM problems.

The recently proposed q-rung picture fuzzy set (q-RPFSs) can describe complex fuzzy and uncertain information effectively. The Hamy mean (HM) operator gets good performance in the process of information aggregation due to its ability to capturing the interrelationships among aggregated values. In this study, we extend HM to q-rung picture fuzzy environment, propose novel q-rung picture fuzzy aggregation operators, and demonstrate their application to multi-attribute group decision-making (MAGDM). First of all, on the basis of Dombi t-norm and t-conorm (DTT), we propose novel operational rules of q-rung picture fuzzy numbers (q-RPFNs). Second, we propose some new aggregation operators of q-RPFNs based on the newly-developed operations, i.e., the q-rung picture fuzzy Dombi Hamy mean (q-RPFDHM) operator, the q-rung picture fuzzy Dombi weighted Hamy mean (q-RPFDWHM) operator, the q-rung picture fuzzy Dombi dual Hamy mean (q-RPFDDHM) operator, and the q-rung picture fuzzy Dombi weighted dual Hamy mean (q-RPFDWDHM) operator. Properties of these operators are also discussed. Third, a new q-rung picture fuzzy MAGDM method is proposed with the help of the proposed operators. Finally, a best project selection example is provided to demonstrate the practicality and effectiveness of the new method. The superiorities of the proposed method are illustrated through comparative analysis.

<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>

The vagueness of human thinking and complexity of perception of the objective reality led to the uncertainty of decision-making. Facing with the growing mass of information, the problem of uncertain information, vague information and uncertain fuzzy decision making become increasingly important. The paper studied the multi-attribute decision-making problem raised from decision information in the form of set pair number, put forward a Set Pair Analysis Ordered Weighted Averaging (SPAOWA) operator and set up a multi-attribute decision-making method for information aggregation and ordering by score function with set pair number. Feasibility of the proposed method has been analyzed by the given examples.

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.

The key objective of the proposed work in this paper is to introduce a generalized form of linguistic picture fuzzy set, so-called linguistic spherical fuzzy set (LSFS), combining the notion of linguistic fuzzy set and spherical fuzzy set. In LSFS we deal with the vague and defective information in decision making. LSFS is characterized by linguistic positive, linguistic neutral and linguistic negative membership degree which satisfies the conditions that the square sum of its linguistic membership degrees is less than or equal to 1. In this paper, we investigate the basic operations of linguistic spherical fuzzy sets and discuss some related results. We extend operational laws of aggregation operators and propose linguistic spherical fuzzy weighted averaging and geometric operators based on spherical fuzzy numbers. Further, the proposed aggregation operators of linguistic spherical fuzzy number are applied to multi-attribute group decision-making problems. To implement the proposed models, we provide some numerical applications of group decision-making problems. In addition, compared with the previous model, we conclude that the proposed technique is more effective and reliable.

In this paper, the novel approach of complex T-spherical fuzzy sets (CTSFSs) and their operational laws are explored and also verified with the help of examples. CTSFS composes the grade of truth, abstinence, and falsity with a condition that the sum of q-power of the real part (also for imaginary part) of the truth, abstinence, and falsity grades cannot be exceeded from a unit interval. Additionally, to examine the interrelationships among the complex T-spherical fuzzy numbers (CTSFNs), we propose two aggregation operators, called complex T-spherical fuzzy weighted averaging (CTSFWA) and complex T-spherical fuzzy weighted geometric (CTSFWG) operators. A multi-attribute decision making (MADM) problem is resolved based on CTSFNs by using the proposed CTSFWA and CTSFWG operators. To examine the proficiency and reliability of the explored works, we use an example to make comparisons between the proposed operators and some existing operators. Based on the comparison results, the proposed CTSFWA and CTSFWG operators are well suited in the fuzzy environment with legitimacy and prevalence by contrasting other existing operators.

Linguistic Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets

To better deal with imprecise and uncertain information in decision making, the definition of linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy sets (LIFSs) is introduced, which is characterized by a linguistic membership degree and a linguistic nonmembership degree, respectively. To compare any two linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy values (LIFVs), the score function and accuracy function are defined. Then, based ont-norm andt-conorm, several aggregation operators are proposed to aggregate linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy information, which avoid the limitations in exiting linguistic operation. In addition, the desired properties of these linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy aggregation operators are discussed. Finally, a numerical example is provided to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed method in multiple attribute group decision making (MAGDM).

The framework of the T-spherical fuzzy set is a recent development in fuzzy set theory that can describe imprecise events using four types of membership grades with no restrictions. The purpose of this manuscript is to point out the limitations of the existing intuitionistic fuzzy Einstein averaging and geometric operators and to develop some improved Einstein aggregation operators. To do so, first some new operational laws were developed for T-spherical fuzzy sets and their properties were investigated. Based on these new operations, two types of Einstein aggregation operators are proposed namely the Einstein interactive averaging aggregation operators and the Einstein interactive geometric aggregation operators. The properties of the newly developed aggregation operators were then investigated and verified. The T-spherical fuzzy aggregation operators were then applied to a multi-attribute decision making (MADM) problem related to the degree of pollution of five major cities in China. Actual datasets sourced from the UCI Machine Learning Repository were used for this purpose. A detailed study was done to determine the most and least polluted city for different perceptions for different situations. Several compliance tests were then outlined to test and verify the accuracy of the results obtained via our proposed decision-making algorithm. It was proved that the results obtained via our proposed decision-making algorithm was fully compliant with all the tests that were outlined, thereby confirming the accuracy of the results obtained via our proposed method.

Interval-valued T-spherical fuzzy set (IVTSFS) handles uncertain and vague information by discussing their membership degree (MD), abstinence degree (AD), non-membership degree (NMD), and refusal degree (RD). MD, AD, NMD, and RD are defined in terms of closed subintervals of that reduce information loss compared to the T-spherical fuzzy set (TSFS), which takes crisp values from intervals; hence, some information may be lost. The purpose of this manuscript is to develop some Hamacher aggregation operators (HAOs) in the environment of IVTSFSs. To do so, some Hamacher operational laws based on Hamacher t-norms (HTNs) and Hamacher t-conorms (HTCNs) are introduced. Using Hamacher operational laws, we develop some aggregation operators (AOs), including an interval-valued T-spherical fuzzy Hamacher (IVTSFH) weighted averaging (IVTSFHWA) operator, an IVTSFH-ordered weighted averaging (IVTSFHOWA) operator, an IVTSFH hybrid averaging (IVTSFHHA) operator, an IVTSFH-weighted geometric (IVTSFHWG) operator, an IVTSFH-ordered weighted geometric (IVTSFHOWG) operator, and an IVTSFH hybrid geometric (IVTSFHHG) operator. The validation of the newly developed HAOs is investigated, and their basic properties are examined. In view of some restrictions, the generalization and proposed HAOs are shown, and a multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) procedure is explored based on the HAOs, which are further exemplified. Finally, a comparative analysis of the proposed work is also discussed with previous literature to show the superiority of our work.
