In this paper, we construct picture fuzzy EDAS model based on traditional EDAS (Evaluation based on Distance from Average Solution) model. Firstly, we briefly review the definition of picture fuzzy sets (PFSs) and introduce the score function, accuracy function and operational laws of picture fuzzy numbers (PFNs). Then, we combine traditional EDAS model for MCGDM with PFNs. In our model, it’s more accuracy and effective for considering the conflicting attributes. Finally, a numerical example for green supplier selection has been given to illustrate this new model and some comparisons between EDAS model with PFNs and PFWA, PFWG aggregation operators are also conducted to further illustrate advantages of the new method.

In this study, we highlight the errors in Sections 2.3, 2.4, 3, and 4 in the article by Fahmi et al. (J Ambient Intell Human Comput (2020). https://doi.org/10.1007/s12652-020-02272-9) by counter definitions and theorems. We find that the definition of cubic Pythagorean fuzzy set (CPFS) (Definition 2.3.1) and operational laws (Definition 2.3.2) violates the rules to consider the membership and nonmembership functions, and then, we redefined the corrected definition and their operations for CPFS. Furthermore, we redefine the concept of cubic Pythagorean linguistic fuzzy set (CPLFS) and their basic operational laws. In addition, we find that Sections 3 and 4 (consist of a list of Maclaurin symmetric mean (MSM) and dual MSM aggregation operators) are invalid, and then, we redefined the list of updated MSM and dual MSM aggregation operators in correct way. Finally, we established the numerical application of the proposed improved algorithm using cubic Pythagorean linguistic fuzzy information to show the applicability and effectiveness of the proposed technique.

In this paper, we design the EDAS (evaluation based on distance from average solution) model with picture 2-tuple linguistic numbers (P2TLNs). First, we briefly reviewed the definition of P2TLSs and introduced the score function, accuracy function, and operational laws of P2TLNs. Then, we combined the traditional EDAS model for multiple criteria group decision making (MCGDM) with P2TLNs. Our presented model was more accurate and effective for considering the conflicting attributes. Finally, a numerical case for green supplier selection was given to illustrate this new model, and some comparisons were also conducted between the picture 2-tuple linguistic weighted averaging (P2TLWA), picture 2-tuple linguistic weighted geometric (P2TLWG) aggregation operators and EDAS model with P2TLNs, to further illustrate the advantages of the new method.

Abstract This main objective of this work is to define some new operations of credibility fuzzy numbers using Hamacher t-norm and t-conorm. These operation are more generalized operation for credibility fuzzy numnbers, we apply these operations to aggregation operators for credibility fuzzy numbers. Furthermore, using the basic operational laws of Hamacher t-norm and t-conorm, we develop a series of credibility fuzzy Hamacher aggregation operators like credibility fuzzy Hamacher weighted averaging (CFHWA) and credibility fuzzy Hamacher geometric (CFHWG) aggregation operators. we also explained some of the proposed Hamacher aggregation operators properties like commutativity, idempotency and monotonicity. In order to validate the proposed Hamacher aggregation operators for credibility fuzzy numbers, we develop general algorithm for decision making technique under credibility fuzzy numbers and using these operators. The proposed algorithm is apply to electricity crises in Pakistan problems. Finally a comparison with other existing methods is done to check the accuracy and validation of the proposed methods. At rest the proposed method is verified by other well known methods.

Abstract In this paper, we investigate the multiple attribute decision making (MADM) problems in which the attribute values take the form of hesitant trapezoid fuzzy information. Firstly, inspired by the idea of hesitant fuzzy sets and trapezoid fuzzy numbers, the definition of hesitant trapezoid fuzzy set and some operational laws of hesitant trapezoid fuzzy elements are proposed. Then some hesitant trapezoid fuzzy aggregation operators based on Hamacher operation are developed, such as the hesitant trapezoid fuzzy Hamacher weighted average (HTrFHWA) operator, the hesitant trapezoid fuzzy Hamacher weighted geometric (HTrFHWG) operator, the hesitant trapezoid fuzzy Hamacher Choquet average (HTrFHCA), the hesitant trapezoid fuzzy Hamacher Choquet geometric (HTrFHCG), etc. Furthermore, an approach based on the hesitant trapezoid fuzzy Hamacher weighted average (HTrFHWA) operator and the hesitant trapezoid fuzzy Hamacher weighted geometric (HTrFHWG) operator is proposed for MADM problems under hesitant trapezoid fuzzy environment. Finally, a numerical example for supplier selection is given to illustrate the application of the proposed approach.

<abstract><p>The green chain supplier selection process plays a major role in the environmental decision for the efficient and effective supply chain management. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to develop a mechanism for decision making on green chain supplier problem. First, we define the Hamacher operational law for Pythagorean cubic fuzzy numbers (PCFNs) and study their fundamental properties. Based on the Hamacher operation law of PCFNs, we defined Pythagorean cubic fuzzy aggregation operators by using Hamacher t-norm and t-conorm. Further, we develop a series of Pythagorean cubic fuzzy Hamacher weighted averaging (PCFHWA), Pythagorean cubic fuzzy Hamacher order weighted averaging (PCFHOWA) Pythagorean Cubic fuzzy Hamacher hybrid averaging (PCFHHA), Pythagorean Cubic fuzzy Hamacher weighted Geometric (PCFHWG), Pythagorean Cubic fuzzy Hamacher order weighted Geometric (PCFHOWG), and Pythagorean Cubic fuzzy Hamacher hybrid geometric (PCFHHA) operators. Furthermore, we apply these aggregation operators of Pythagorean Cubic fuzzy numbers to the decision making problem for green supplier selection. We construct an algorithm for the group decision making by using aggregation operators and score function. The proposed decision making method applies to green chain supplier selection problem and find the best green supplier for green supply chain management. The proposed method compared with other group decision techniques under Pythagorean cubic fuzzy information. From the comparison and sensitivity analysis, we concluded that our proposed method is more generalized and effective method.</p></abstract>

For the sake of better handle the imprecise and uncertain information in decision making problems(DMPs), linguistic interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy numbers(LIVIFNs) based aggregation operators (AOS) are proposed by combining extended Copulas (ECs), extended Co-copulas (ECCs), power average operator and linguistic interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy information (LIVIFI). First of all, ECs and ECCs, some specifics of ECs and ECCs, score and accuracy functions of LIVIFNs are gained. Then, based on ECs and ECCs, several aggregation operators are proposed to aggregate LIVIFI, which can offer decision makers (DMs) desirable generality and flexibility. In addition, the desired properties of proposed AOS are discussed. Last but not least, a MAGDM approach is constructed based on proposed AOs; Consequently, the effectiveness of the proposed approach is verified by a numerical example, and then the advantages are showed by comparing with other approaches.

Pythagorean hesitant fuzzy sets are widely watched because of their excellent ability to deal with uncertainty, imprecise and vague information. This paper extends Pythagorean hesitant fuzzy environments to interval-valued Pythagorean hesitant fuzzy environments and proposes the concept of interval-valued Pythagorean hesitant fuzzy set (IVPHFS), which allows the membership of each object to be a set of several pairs of possible interval-valued Pythagorean fuzzy elements. Furthermore, we develop a series of aggregation operators for interval-valued Pythagorean hesitant fuzzy information and apply them to multiattribute group decision-making (MAGDM) problems. Then, some desired operational laws and properties of IVPHFSs are studied. Especially, considering an interval-valued Pythagorean fuzzy element (IVPHFE) is formed by several pairs of interval values, this paper proposes the concepts of score function and accuracy function in the form of two interval numbers which can retain interval-valued Pythagorean fuzzy information as much as possible. Then, the relationship among these operators is discussed by comparing the interval numbers. Eventually, an illustrative example fully shows the feasibility, practicality, and effectiveness of the proposed approach.

This paper focuses on the multiattribute group decision making problems with linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy information. Firstly the concept of linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (LIFNs) is introduced, and then based on the LIFNs, some new aggregation operators based on Bonferroni mean and power operator are proposed, such as linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy power Bonferroni mean (LIFPBM) operator, linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy weighted power Bonferroni mean (LIFWPBM) operator, linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy geometric power Bonferroni mean (LIFGPBM) operator, and linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy weighted geometric power Bonferroni mean (LIFWGPBM) operator. Then, some properties are proved such as idempotency, permutation, and boundedness. Besides, some special situations of the operators are explored. After that, an approach based of the LIFWGPBM and LIFWGPBM operators is proposed. Finally an example is used to illustrate the validity of the developed method.

The aims of this study are to propose the linguistic picture fuzzy Dombi (LPFD) aggregation operators and decision-making approach to deal with uncertainties in the form of linguistic picture fuzzy sets. LPFD operators have more flexibility due to the general fuzzy set. Utilizing the Dombi operational rule, the series of Dombi aggregation operators were proposed, namely linguistic picture fuzzy Dombi arithmetic/geometric, ordered arithmetic/ordered geometric and Hybrid arithmetic/Hybrid geometric aggregation operators. The distinguished feature of these proposed operators is studied. At that point, we have used these Dombi operators to design a model to deal with multiple attribute decision-making (MADM) issues under linguistic picture fuzzy information. Finally, an illustrative example to evaluate the emerging technology enterprises is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach, together with a sensitivity analysis and comparison analysis, proving that its results are feasible and credible.

In this paper, we investigate the multiple attribute decision making problems with fuzzy number intuitionistic fuzzy information. Firstly, some operational laws of fuzzy number intuitionistic fuzzy values, score function and accuracy function of fuzzy number intuitionistic fuzzy values are introduced. Then, we have developed two fuzzy number intuitionistic fuzzy Choquet integral aggregation operators: induced fuzzy number intuitionistic fuzzy choquet ordered averaging (IFNIFCOA) operator and induced fuzzy number intuitionistic fuzzy choquet ordered geometric (IFNIFCOG) operator. The prominent characteristic of the operators is that they can not only consider the importance of the elements or their ordered positions, but also reflect the correlation among the elements or their ordered positions. We have studied some desirable properties of the IFNIFCOA and IFNIFCOG operators, such as commutativity, idempotency and monotonicity, and applied the IFNIFCOA and IFNIFCOGM operators to multiple attribute decision making with fuzzy number intuitionistic fuzzy information. Finally an illustrative example has been given to show the developed method.
