Linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (LIFNs) is a new concept in describing the intuitionistic fuzzy information, which membership and non-membership are expressed by linguistic terms, so it can more easily express the fuzzy information, and some research results on LIFNs have been achieved. However, in the existing researches, some linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy aggregation operators are based on the traditional operational rules, and they have some drawbacks for multi-attribute decision making (MADM) in the practical application. In order to overcome these problems, in this paper, we proposed some improved operational rules based on LIFNs and verified their some properties. Then we developed some aggregation operators to fuse the decision information represented by LIFNs, including the improved linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy weighted averaging (ILIFWA) operator and the improved linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy weighted power average (ILIFWPA) operator. Further, we proved their some desirable properties. Based on the ILIFWA operator and the ILIFWPA operator, we presented some new methods to deal with the multi-attribute group decision making (MAGDM) problems under the linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy environment. Finally, we used some practical examples to illustrate the validity and feasibility of the proposed methods by comparing with other methods.

Some hybrid aggregation operators have been developed based on linguistic hesitant intuitionistic fuzzy information. The generalized linguistic hesitant intuitionistic fuzzy hybrid weighted averaging (GLHIFHWA) operator and the generalized linguistic hesitant intuitionistic fuzzy hybrid geometric mean (GLHIFHGM) operator are defined. Some special cases of the new aggregation operators are studied and many existing aggregation operators are special cases of the new operators. A new multiple attribute decision making method based on the new aggregation operators is proposed and a practical numerical example is presented to illustrate the feasibility and practical advantages of the new method.

In this paper, some new operators for aggregating interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy information are proposed to deal with multiple attribute decision making problems. Firstly, the C-IFOWA operator and C-IFOWG operator are developed to aggregate all the values in the interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy numbers. Some of their desirable properties are also studied. Secondly, in order to aggregate a set of interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy numbers, some new aggregation operators are proposed based on the C-IFOWA operator and C-IFOWG operator. Thirdly, two methods for multiple attribute decision making, in which the attribute values are given in the forms of interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy numbers are presented. Finally, two numerical examples are provided to illustrate the practicality and validity of the proposed methods.

The objective of this paper is to present novel algorithms for solving the multiple attribute decision-making problems under the possibility intuitionistic fuzzy soft set (PIFSS) information. The prominent characteristics of the PIFSS are that it considers the membership and nonmembership degrees of each object during evaluation and their corresponding possibility degree. Keeping these features, this paper presents some new operation laws, score function, and comparison laws between the pairs of the PIFSSs. Further, we define COmplex PRoportional ASsessment (COPRAS) and weighted averaging and geometric aggregation operators to aggregate the PIFSS information into a single one. Later, we develop two algorithms based on COPRAS and aggregation operators to solve decision-making problems. In these approaches, the experts and the weights of the parameters are determined with the help of entropy and the distance measure to remove the ambiguity in the information. Finally, a numerical example is given to demonstrate the presented approaches.

Recently, resolving the decision making problem of evaluation and ranking the potential suppliers have become as a key strategic factor for business firms. In this paper, two new intuitionistic fuzzy aggregation operators are developed: dependent intuitionistic fuzzy ordered weighed averaging (DIFOWA) operator and dependent intuitionistic fuzzy hybrid weighed aggregation (DIFHWA) operator. Some of their main properties are studied. A method based on the DIFHWA operator for intuitionistic fuzzy multiple attribute decision making is presented. Finally, an illustrative example concerning supplier selection is given.

Aggregation operators play a key role in multiple criteria decision-making (MCDM). Extensions of aggregation operators to intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFSs) usually involve replacing the standard arithmetic operations with those defined over the membership and nonmembership of IFS, which is essentially a pair of special Archimedean triangular norm (t-norm) and triangular conorm (t-conorm), called probabilistic sum t-conorm and product t-norm, on the membership and nonmembership of IFS, respectively. In this paper, we first introduce some operations on IFSs by means of Archimedean t-norm and t-conorm. Then some generalized Archimedean intuitionistic fuzzy aggregation operators are proposed, such as generalized Archimedean intuitionistic fuzzy weighted averaging operator, generalized Archimedean intuitionistic fuzzy ordered weighted averaging (GAIFOWA) operator, and generalized Archimedean intuitionistic fuzzy hybird averaging operator. Some desirable properties of these operators are investigated. The relations between these operators and the existing intuitionistic fuzzy aggregation operators are discussed. Finally, applying these proposed operators, we develop an approach for multi-criteria decision-making with intuitionistic fuzzy information, an illustrative example is used to verify the developed approach and to demonstrate its practicality and effectiveness.

Firstly, definition and some operational laws of hesitant triangular fuzzy elements are introduced. Then, we develop some hesitant triangular fuzzy aggregation operators based on Bonferroni means and discuss their basic properties. Some existing operators can be viewed as their special cases. Next, we apply the proposed operators to deal with multiple attribute decision-making problems under hesitant triangular fuzzy environment. Finally, an illustrative example is given to show the developed method and demonstrate its practicality and effectiveness.

We first define an accuracy function of hesitant fuzzy elements (HFEs) and develop a new method to compare two HFEs. Then, based on Einstein operators, we give some new operational laws on HFEs and some desirable properties of these operations. We also develop several new hesitant fuzzy aggregation operators, including the hesitant fuzzy Einstein weighted geometric (HFEWGε) operator and the hesitant fuzzy Einstein ordered weighted geometric (HFEWGε) operator, which are the extensions of the weighted geometric operator and the ordered weighted geometric (OWG) operator with hesitant fuzzy information, respectively. Furthermore, we establish the connections between the proposed and the existing hesitant fuzzy aggregation operators and discuss various properties of the proposed operators. Finally, we apply the HFEWGεoperator to solve the hesitant fuzzy decision making problems.

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.
