The purpose of this paper is to propose a new approach to interactive multi-attribute group decision making with triangular Atanassov's intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (TAIFNs). The contribution of this study is fivefold: (1) Minkowski distance between TAIFNs is firstly defined; (2) We define the possibility attitudinal expected values of TAIFNs and thereby present a novel risk attitudinal ranking method of TAIFNs which can sufficiently consider the risk attitude of decision maker; (3) The weighted average operator (TAIFWA) and generalized ordered weighted average (TAIFGWA) operator of TAIFNs are defined as well as the hybrid ordered weighted average (TAIFHOWA) operator; (4) To study the interaction between attributes, we further develop the generalized Choquet (TAIF-GC) integral operator and generalized hybrid Choquet (TAIF-GHC) integral operator of TAIFNs. Their desirable properties are also discussed; (5) The individual overall value of alternative is obtained by TAIF-GC operator and the collective one is derived through TAIFWA operator. Fuzzy measures of attribute subsets and expert weights are objectively derived through constructing multi-objective optimization model which is transformed into the goal programming model to solve. The system analyst selection example verifies effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Supplier selection, the process of finding the right suppliers who are able to provide the buyer with the right quality products and/or services at the right price, at the right time and in the right quantities, is one of the most critical activities for establishing an effective supply chain, and is typically a multi-criteria group decision problem. In many practical situations, there usually exists incomplete and uncertain information, and the decision makers cannot easily express their judgments on the candidates with exact and crisp values. Therefore, in this paper an extended VIKOR method for group decision making with intuitionistic fuzzy numbers is proposed to solve the supplier selection problem under incomplete and uncertain information environment. In other researches in this area, the weights of each decision makers and in many of them the weights of criteria are pre-determined, but these weights have been calculated in this paper by using the decision matrix of each decision maker. Also, normalized Hamming distance is proposed to calculate the distance between intuitionistic fuzzy numbers. Finally, a numerical example for supplier selection is given to clarify the main results developed in this paper.

In this paper, we extended the Hamy mean (HM) operator, the Dombi Hamy mean (DHM) operator, the Dombi dual Hamy mean (DDHM), with the intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (IFNs) to propose the intuitionistic fuzzy Dombi Hamy mean (IFDHM) operator, intuitionistic fuzzy weighted Dombi Hamy mean (IFWDHM) operator, intuitionistic fuzzy Dombi dual Hamy mean (IFDDHM) operator, and intuitionistic fuzzy weighted Dombi dual Hamy mean (IFWDDHM) operator. Following this, the multiple attribute group decision-making (MAGDM) methods are proposed with these operators. To conclude, we utilized an applicable example for the selection of a car supplier to prove the proposed methods.

Crisp values are insufficient to model real-life situations and imprecise ideas are frequently represented in multicriteria decision aid analysis. In fact, it is difficult to treat the evaluation criteria precisely and to fix exact preferences rating. The triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers succeeded to treat this kind of ambiguity in a great deal of research than other forms of fuzzy representation functions. The field of sorting issues is an active research topic in the multiple criteria decision aid (MCDA). This study extended one of the sorting methods, FLOWSORT, for solving multiple criteria group decision-making problems. This extension described the preferences rating of alternatives as linguistic terms which can be easily expressed in triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers. To validate our extension, an illustrative example as well as an empirical comparison with other multi-criteria decision making methods is presented.
