Combining interval-valued hesitant fuzzy soft sets (IVHFSSs) and a new comparative law, we propose a new method, which can effectively solve multiattribute decision-making (MADM) problems. Firstly, a characteristic function of two interval values and a new comparative law of interval-valued hesitant fuzzy elements (IVHFEs) based on the possibility degree are proposed. Then, we define two important definitions of IVHFSSs including the interval-valued hesitant fuzzy soft quasi subset and soft quasi equal based on the new comparative law. Finally, an algorithm is presented to solve MADM problems. We also use the method proposed in this paper to evaluate the importance of major components of the well drilling mud pump.

We introduce the concept of generalised interval-valued fuzzy soft set and its operations and study some of their properties. We give applications of this theory in solving a decision making problem. We also introduce a similarity measure of two generalised interval-valued fuzzy soft sets and discuss its application in a medical diagnosis problem: fuzzy set; soft set; fuzzy soft set; generalised fuzzy soft set; generalised interval-valued fuzzy soft set; interval-valued fuzzy set; interval-valued fuzzy soft set.

Ranking interval-valued fuzzy soft sets is an increasingly important research issue in decision making, and provides support for decision makers in order to select the optimal alternative under an uncertain environment. Currently, there are three interval-valued fuzzy soft set-based decision-making algorithms in the literature. However, these algorithms are not able to overcome the issue of comparable alternatives and, in fact, might be ignored due to the lack of a comprehensive priority approach. In order to provide a partial solution to this problem, we present a group decision-making solution which is based on a preference relationship of interval-valued fuzzy soft information. Further, corresponding to each parameter, two crisp topological spaces, namely, lower topology and upper topology, are introduced based on the interval-valued fuzzy soft topology. Then, using the preorder relation on a topological space, a score function-based ranking system is also defined to design an adjustable multi-steps algorithm. Finally, some illustrative examples are given to compare the effectiveness of the present approach with some existing methods.

By combining the interval-valued hesitant fuzzy set and soft set models, the purpose of this paper is to introduce the concept of interval-valued hesitant fuzzy soft sets. Further, some operations on the interval-valued hesitant fuzzy soft sets are investigated, such as complement, “AND,” “OR,” ring sum, and ring product operations. Then, by means of reduct interval-valued fuzzy soft sets and level hesitant fuzzy soft sets, we present an adjustable approach to interval-valued hesitant fuzzy soft sets based on decision making and some numerical examples are provided to illustrate the developed approach. Finally, the weighted interval-valued hesitant fuzzy soft set is also introduced and its application in decision making problem is shown.
