In this paper, complex q-rung orthopair uncertain linguistic sets (CQROULSs) for handling multi-attribute decision making (MADM) issues are proposed so that the assessed estimation of each trait can be presented by CQROULS. Another aggregation operator, called the partitioned Bonferroni mean (PBM) operator, is then considered to manage the circumstances under fuzziness. At that point, the PBM operator is stretched out to CQROULSs in which a complex q-rung orthopair uncertain linguistic partitioned Bonferroni mean (CQROULPBM) operator is then proposed. To wipe out the negative impact of preposterous assessment estimations of characteristics on total outcomes, complex q-rung orthopair uncertain linguistic weighted partitioned Bonferroni mean (CQROULWPBM) operator is further considered. These properties, idempotency, boundedness, and commutativity of the CQROULWPBM operator are obtained. The proposed CQROULSs with the CQROULWPBM operator is novel and important for MADM issues. Finally, an MADM based on CQROULSs is constructed with a numerical case given to delineate the proposed approach and then applied for selecting an antivirus mask for the COVID-19 pandemic. The advantages and comparative analysis with graphical interpretation of the explored operators are also presented to demonstrate the effectiveness and usefulness of the proposed method.

In decision-making process, decision-makers may make different decisions because of their different experiences and knowledge. The abnormal preference value given by the biased decision-maker (the value that is too large or too small in the original data) may affect the decision result. To make the decision fair and objective, this paper combines the advantages of the power average (PA) operator and the Bonferroni mean (BM) operator to define the generalized fuzzy soft power Bonferroni mean (GFSPBM) operator and the generalized fuzzy soft weighted power Bonferroni mean (GFSWPBM) operator. The new operator not only considers the overall balance between data and information but also considers the possible interrelationships between attributes. The excellent properties and special cases of these ensemble operators are studied. On this basis, the idea of the bidirectional projection method based on the GFSWPBM operator is introduced, and a multi-attribute decision-making method, with a correlation between attributes, is proposed. The decision method proposed in this paper is applied to a software selection problem and compared to the existing methods to verify the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method.

In most realistic situations, the theory and method of multi-attribute decision-making have been widely used in different fields, such as engineering, economy, management, military, and others. Although many studies in some extended fuzzy contexts have been explored with multi-attribute decision-making, it is widely recognized that single-valued neutrosophic sets can describe incomplete, indeterminate and inconsistent information more easier. In this paper, aiming at addressing multi-attribute decision-making problems with single-valued neutrosophic information, related models and multi-attribute decision-making approaches based on the fuzzy graph theory are studied. In specific, the notion of single-valued neutrosophic sets and graphs is firstly introduced together with several common operational laws. Then a multi-attribute decision making method based on single-valued neutrosophic graphs is established. Finally, an illustrative example and a comparative analysis are conducted to verify the feasibility and efficiency of the proposed method.

Neutrosophic cubic sets (NCSs) can express complex multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) problems with its interval and single-valued neutrosophic numbers simultaneously. The weighted arithmetic average (WAA) and geometric average (WGA) operators are common aggregation operators for handling MADM problems. However, the neutrosophic cubic weighted arithmetic average (NCWAA) and neutrosophic cubic geometric weighted average (NCWGA) operators may result in some unreasonable aggregated values in some cases. In order to overcome the drawbacks of the NCWAA and NCWGA, this paper developed a new neutrosophic cubic hybrid weighted arithmetic and geometric aggregation (NCHWAGA) operator and investigates its suitability and effectiveness. Then, we established a MADM method based on the NCHWAGA operator. Finally, a MADM problem with neutrosophic cubic information was provided to illustrate the application and effectiveness of the proposed method.

The process of decision-making is subject to various influence factors and environmental uncertainties, which makes decision become a very complex task. As a new type of decision processing tool, the q-rung orthopair fuzzy sets can effectively deal with complex uncertain information arising in the decision process. To this end, this study proposes a new multi-attribute decision-making algorithm based on the power Bonferroni mean operator in the context of q-rung orthopair fuzzy information. In this method, in view of multi-attribute decision-making problem of internal relationship between multiple variables and extreme evaluation value, the Bonferroni mean operator is combined with power average operator. Then, the integrated operator is introduced into the q-rung orthopair fuzzy set to develop a new q-rung orthopair power Bonferroni mean operator, and some relevant properties of this new operator are discussed. Secondly, a multi-attribute decision-making method is established based on this proposed operator. Finally, the feasibility and superiority of our method are testified via a numerical example of investment partner selection in the tourism market.

The theory of complex spherical fuzzy sets (CSFSs) is a mixture of two theories, i.e., complex fuzzy sets (CFSs) and spherical fuzzy sets (SFSs), to cope with uncertain and unreliable information in realistic decision-making situations. CSFSs contain three grades in the form of polar coordinates, e.g., truth, abstinence, and falsity, belonging to a unit disc in a complex plane, with a condition that the sum of squares of the real part of the truth, abstinence, and falsity grades is not exceeded by a unit interval. In this paper, we first consider some properties and their operational laws of CSFSs. Additionally, based on CSFSs, the complex spherical fuzzy Bonferroni mean (CSFBM) and complex spherical fuzzy weighted Bonferroni mean (CSFWBM) operators are proposed. The special cases of the proposed operators are also discussed. A multi-attribute decision making (MADM) problem was chosen to be resolved based on the proposed CSFBM and CSFWBM operators. We then propose the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to an Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) method based on CSFSs (CSFS-TOPSIS). An application example is given to delineate the proposed methods and a close examination is undertaken. The advantages and comparative analysis of the proposed approaches are also presented.

Information fusion is an important part of multiple-attribute decision-making, and aggregation operator is an important tool of decision information fusion. Integration operators in a variety of fuzzy information environments have a slight lack of consideration for the correlation between variables. Archimedean copula provides information fusion patterns that rely on the intrinsic relevance of information. This paper extends the Archimedean copula to the aggregation of hesitant fuzzy information. Firstly, the Archimedean copula is used to generate the operation rules of the hesitant fuzzy elements. Secondly, the hesitant fuzzy copula Bonferroni mean operator and hesitant fuzzy weighted copula Bonferroni mean operator are propounded, and several properties are proved in detail. Furthermore, a decision-making method based on the operators is proposed, and the specific decision steps are given. Finally, an example is presented to illustrate the practical advantages of the method, and the sensitivity analysis of the decision results with the change of parameters is carried out.
