The Relationship

This paper studied the single-valued neutrosophic linguistic distance measures based on the induced aggregation method. Firstly, we proposed a single-valued neutrosophic linguistic-induced ordered weighted averaging distance (SVNLIOWAD) measure, which is a new extension of the existing distance measures based on the induced aggregation view. Then, based on the proposed SVNLIOWAD, a novel induced distance for single-valued neutrosophic linguistic sets, namely the single-valued neutrosophic linguistic weighted induced ordered weighted averaging distance (SVNLWIOWAD), was developed to eliminate the defects of the existing methods. The relationship between the two proposed distance measures was also explored. A multiple attribute group decision making (MAGDM) model was further presented based on the proposed SVNLWIOWAD measure. Finally, a numerical example concerning an investment selection problem was provided to demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed method under a single-valued neutrosophic linguistic environment and, then, a comparison analysis was carried out to verify the flexibility and effectiveness of the proposed work.

Abstract This paper proposes a group decision making method based on entropy of neutrosophic linguistic sets and generalized single valued neutrosophic linguistic operators. This method is applied to solve the multiple attribute group decision making problems under single valued neutrosophic liguistic environment, in which the attribute weights are completely unknown. First, the attribute weights are obtained by using the entropy of neutrosophic linguistic sets. Then three generalized single valued neutrosophic linguistic operators are introduced, including the generalized single valued neutrosophic linguistic weighted averaging (GSVNLWA) operator, the generalized single valued neutrosophic linguistic ordered weighted averaging (GSVNLOWA) operator and the generalized single valued neutrosophic linguistic hybrid averaging (GSVNLHA) operator, and the GSVNLWA and GSVNLHA operators are used to aggregate information. Furthermore, similarity measure based on single valued neutrosophic linguistic numbers is defined and used to sort the alternatives and obtain the best alternative. Finally, an illustrative example is given to demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the developed method.

The aim of this paper is to present a multiple-attribute group decision-making (MAGDM) framework based on a new single-valued neutrosophic linguistic (SVNL) distance measure. By unifying the idea of the weighted average and ordered weighted averaging into a single-valued neutrosophic linguistic distance, we first developed a new SVNL weighted distance measure, namely a SVNL combined and weighted distance (SVNLCWD) measure. The focal characteristics of the devised SVNLCWD are its ability to combine both the decision-makers’ attitudes toward the importance, as well as the weights, of the arguments. Various desirable properties and families of the developed SVNLCWD were contemplated. Moreover, a MAGDM approach based on the SVNLCWD was formulated. Lastly, a real numerical example concerning a low-carbon supplier selection problem was used to describe the superiority and feasibility of the developed approach.

In this paper, a new concept of the triangular neutrosophic cubic fuzzy numbers (TNCFNs), their score and accuracy functions are introduced. Based on TNCFNs, some new Einstein aggregation operators, such as the triangular neutrosophic cubic fuzzy Einstein weighted averaging (TNCFEWA), triangular neutrosophic cubic fuzzy Einstein ordered weighted averaging (TNCFEOWA) and triangular neutrosophic cubic fuzzy Einstein hybrid weighted averaging (TNCFEHWA) operators are developed. Furthermore, their application to multiple-attribute decision-making with triangular neutrosophic cubic fuzzy (TNCF) information is discussed. Finally, a practical example is given to verify the developed approach and to demonstrate its practicality and effectiveness.

In this paper, we present the induced uncertain Euclidean ordered weighted averaging distance (IUEOWAD) operator. It is an extension of the OWA operator that uses the main characteristics of the induced OWA (IOWA), the Euclidean distance and uncertain information represented by interval numbers. The main advantage of this operator is that it is able to consider complex attitudinal characters of the decision-maker by using order-inducing variables in the aggregation of the Euclidean distance. Moreover, it is able to deal with uncertain environments where the information is very imprecise and can be assessed with interval numbers. We study some of its main properties and particular cases such as the uncertain maximum distance, the uncertain minimum distance, the uncertain normalized Euclidean distance (UNED), the uncertain weighted Euclidean distance (UWED) and the uncertain Euclidean ordered weighted averaging distance (UEOWAD) operator. We also apply this aggregation operator to a group decision-making problem regarding the selection new artillery weapons under uncertainty.

This paper presents a novel approach based on the intuitionistic fuzzy combined ordered weighted averaging (IFCOWA) operator to solve multiple attribute group decision making (MAGDM) problems under fuzzy environment. Firstly, we introduce the new methods for determining the attribute weights and the order inducing variable of the proposed operator. With the intuitionistic fuzzy cross-entropy of aggregated attribute value to the optimum and the poorest information measures, the sort vector is constructed to derive the weights of attributes. Moreover, the order inducing variable of the attributes is obtained from their score values, by which the inducing order is roughly determined. Finally, two numerical examples about the venture investment problems are illustrated to demonstrate the applicability and efficiency of the raised approach in group decision making problem.

A new approach for multiple attribute group decision making (MAGDM) problems where the attribute weights and the expert weights are real numbers and the attribute values take the form of vague values, is presented in this paper. Since families of ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operators are available in the literature, and only a few available for vague sets, the vague ordered weighted averaging (VOWA) operator and the induced vague ordered weighted averaging (IVOWA) operator are introduced in this paper and utilized for aggregating the vague information. The correlation coefficient for vague sets is used for ranking the alternatives and a new MAGDM model is developed based on the IVOWA operator and the vague weighted averaging (VWA) operator. In addition to the proposed model, two different models are proposed based on Linguistic Quantifiers for the situation when the expert weights are completely unknown. An illustrative example is given and a comparison is made between the models to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed approach of MAGDM.
