This paper introduces a new family of distributions for modelling censored multimodal data. The model extends the widely known tobit model by introducing two parameters that control the shape and the asymmetry of the distribution. Basic properties of this new family of distributions are studied in detail and a model for censored positive data is also studied. The problem of estimating parameters is addressed by considering the maximum likelihood method. The score functions and the elements of the observed information matrix are given. Finally, three applications to real data sets are reported to illustrate the developed methodology.

Probabilistic hesitant fuzzy Set (PHFs) is the most powerful and comprehensive idea to support more complexity than developed fuzzy set (FS) frameworks. In this paper, it can explain a novel, improved TOPSIS-based method for multi-criteria group decision-making (MCGDM) problem through the Probabilistic hesitant fuzzy environment, in which the weights of both experts and criteria are completely unknown. Firstly, we discuss the concept of PHFs, score functions and the basic operating laws of PHFs. In fact, to compute the unknown weight information, the generalized distance measure for PHFs was defined based on the Probabilistic hesitant fuzzy entropy measure. Second, MCGDM will be presented with the PHF information-based decision-making process.

Intuitionistic fuzzy multiple attribute decision making deals with the issue of ranking alternatives based on the decision information quantified in terms of intuitionistic fuzzy values. Lexicographic orders can serve as efficient and indispensable tools for comparing intuitionistic fuzzy values. This paper introduces a number of lexicographic orders by means of several measures such as the membership, non-membership, score, accuracy and expectation score functions. Some equivalent characterizations and illustrative examples are provided, from which the relationships among these lexicographic orders are ascertained. We also propose three different compatible properties of preorders with respect to the algebraic sum and scalar product operations of intuitionistic fuzzy values, and apply them to the investigation of compatible properties of various lexicographic orders. In addition, a benchmark problem regarding risk investment is further explored to give a comparative analysis of different lexicographic orders and highlight the practical value of the obtained results for solving real-world decision-making problems.

Due to the indeterminacy and uncertainty of the decision-makers (DM) in the complex decision making problems of daily life, evaluation and aggregation of the information usually becomes a complicated task. In literature many theories and fuzzy sets (FS) are presented for the evaluation of these decision tasks, but most of these theories and fuzzy sets have failed to explain the uncertainty and vagueness in the decision making issues. Therefore, we use complex intuitionistic fuzzy set (CIFS) instead of fuzzy set and intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS). A new type of aggregation operation is also developed by the use of complex intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (CIFNs), their accuracy and the score functions are also discussed in detail. Moreover, we utilized the Maclaurin symmetric mean (MSM) operator, which have the ability to capture the relationship among multi-input arguments, as a result, CIF Maclarurin symmetric mean (CIFMSM) operator and CIF dual Maclaurin symmetric mean (CIFDMSM) operator are presented and their characteristics are discussed in detail. On the basis of these operators, a MAGDM method is presented for the solution of group decision making problems. Finally, the validation of the propounded approach is proved by evaluating a numerical example, and by the comparison with the previously researched results.

In multiple attribute decision-making in an intuitionistic fuzzy environment, the decision information is sometimes given by intuitionistic fuzzy soft sets. In order to address intuitionistic fuzzy decision-making problems in a more efficient way, many scholars have produced increasingly better procedures for ranking intuitionistic fuzzy values. In this study, we further investigate the problem of ranking intuitionistic fuzzy values from a geometric point of view, and we produce related applications to decision-making. We present Minkowski score functions of intuitionistic fuzzy values, which are natural generalizations of the expectation score function and other useful score functions in the literature. The rationale for Minkowski score functions lies in the geometric intuition that a better score should be assigned to an intuitionistic fuzzy value farther from the negative ideal intuitionistic fuzzy value. To capture the subjective attitude of decision makers, we further propose the Minkowski weighted score function that incorporates an attitudinal parameter. The Minkowski score function is a special case corresponding to a neutral attitude. Some fundamental properties of Minkowski (weighted) score functions are examined in detail. With the aid of the Minkowski weighted score function and the maximizing deviation method, we design a new algorithm for solving decision-making problems based on intuitionistic fuzzy soft sets. Moreover, two numerical examples regarding risk investment and supplier selection are employed to conduct comparative analyses and to demonstrate the feasibility of the approach proposed in this article.
