Considering the decision maker’s psychological state will influence their evaluation result in the risky multi-attribute decision-making problem, and the uncertainty of evaluation information. In this paper, we will propose a behavioral risky multiple attribute decision making with interval type-2 fuzzy ranking method and TOPSIS method. The interval type-2 fuzzy set is used to express the uncertainty of evaluation information, the prospect theory is applied to describe people’s psychological state in the processing of risk decision making. First, we define a new ranking method for interval type-2 fuzzy set to compare the interval type-2 fuzzy evaluation information and the expectation. Second, we give a relative distance for interval type-2 fuzzy set to get the distance between the interval type-2 fuzzy evaluation information and expectation. Third, we use the prospect theory, the new defined ranking method and the new defined distance formula to obtain the comprehensive prospect value. Fourth, we use the improved TOPSIS method and the comprehensive prospect value to rank the alternatives. Based on the above-mentioned steps, we give the solution for risky interval type-2 fuzzy multiple attribute decision-making problem, which named as the behavioral risky multiple attribute decision making with interval type-2 fuzzy ranking method and TOPSIS method. Finally, we use an example to show the rationality of this method.

A new multiple attribute decision making (MADM) model was proposed in this paper in order to cope with the temporal performance of alternatives during different time periods. Although dynamic MADM problems are enjoying a more visible position in the literature, majority of the applications deal with combining past and present data by means of aggregation operators. There is a research gap in developing data-driven methodologies to capture the patterns and trends in the historical data. In parallel with the fact that style of decision making evolving from intuition-based to data-driven, the present study proposes a new interval type-2 fuzzy (IT2F) functions model in order to predict current performance of alternatives based on the historical decision matrices. As the availability of accurate historical data with desired quality cannot always be obtained and the data usually involves imprecision and uncertainty, predictions regarding the performance of alternatives are modeled as IT2F sets. These estimated outputs are transformed into interpretable forms by utilizing the vocabulary matching procedures. Then the interactive procedures are employed to allow decision makers to modify the predicted decision matrix based on their perceptions and subjective judgments. Finally, ranking of alternatives are performed based on past and current performance scores.

This paper investigates an approach to multiple attribute group decision-making (MAGDM) problems, in which the individual assessments are in the form of triangle interval type-2 fuzzy numbers (TIT2FNs). Firstly, some Frank operation laws of triangle interval type-2 fuzzy set (TIT2FS) are defined. Secondly, some Frank aggregation operators such as the triangle interval type-2 fuzzy Frank weighted averaging (TIT2FFWA) operator and the triangle interval type-2 fuzzy Frank weighted geometric (TIT2FFWG) operator are developed for aggregation TIT2FNs. Furthermore, some desirable properties of the two aggregation operators are analyzed in detail. Finally, an approach based on TIT2FFWA (or TIT2FFWG) operator to solve MAGDM is developed. An illustrative example about supplier selection is provided to illustrate the developed procedures. The results demonstrate the practicality and effectiveness of our new method.

Abstract In this paper, we propose a behavioral risky hesitant fuzzy linguistic multiple attribute decision making with priority degree method. First, we define a new ranking method for hesitant fuzzy linguistic term sets to compare the hesitant fuzzy linguistic evaluation information and the expectation. Second, we give a relative distance for the hesitant fuzzy linguistic term set to get the distance between the hesitant fuzzy linguistic evaluation information and expectation. Third, we use the prospect theory, the new defined ranking method and the new defined distance formula to get interval individual prospect value. Forth, we apply the average operator to get interval comprehensive prospect value. Fifth, we define a priority degree method of interval number to rank interval comprehension prospect value. Based on the above steps, we give the solution of risky hesitant fuzzy linguistic multiple attribute decision making problem. Further, we use the example to illustrate the feasibility and rationality of this behavior method and the comparative analysis between the existing decision making method for the hesitant fuzzy linguistic term.

This paper proposes a ranking method that considers the risk preferences of decision makers for multiple-attribute decision-making problems in a multiple-interval type-2 trapezoidal fuzzy set environment. First, decision makers are classified according to the risk preferences and a measurement method of risk preferences is proposed. Second, a risk preference decision matrix is obtained and a new calculation formula of likelihood is defined. Finally, we obtain the ranking results of alternatives by calculating the signed distance. Our example analysis shows that the proposed method is scientific and reasonable, and different risk preferences influence the results of decision making. Comparison with previous methods shows that the proposed algorithm is more feasible; it is applicable for decision making on both risk preferences and risk conservation.

The use of probabilistic linguistic term sets (PLTSs) means the process of computing with words. The existing methods computing with PLTSs mainly use symbolic model. To provide a semantic model for computing with PLTSs, we propose to represent a PLTS by using an interval type-2 fuzzy set (IT2FS). The key step is to compute the footprint of uncertainty of the IT2FS. To this aim, the upper membership function is computed by aggregating the membership functions of the linguistic terms contained in the PLTS, and the lower membership function is obtained by moving the upper membership function downward with the step being total entropy of the PLTS. The comparison rules, some operations, and an aggregation operator for PLTSs are introduced. Based on the proposed method of computing with PLTSs, a multi-criteria group decision making model is introduced. The proposed decision making model is then applied in green supplier selection problem to show its feasibility.
