Dual hesitant fuzzy geometric Bonferroni mean is defined for dual hesitant fuzzy sets. Different properties of dual hesitant fuzzy geometric Bonferroni mean are discussed. Some special cases are studied in detail for dual hesitant fuzzy geometric Bonferroni mean. In addition, dual hesitant fuzzy weighted geometric Bonferroni mean and dual hesitant fuzzy Choquet geometric Bonferroni mean are proposed. A multicriteria decision-making method is discussed to find the best alternative among different alternatives by using proposed aggregated operators and an illustrated example is also given to understand our proposal.

The study is concerned with the representation and aggregation of complex uncertainty information. First, the concept of hesitant Fermatean 2-tuple linguistic sets (HF2TLSs) is introduced for characterizing an individual’s imprecision preferences and assessing information by combining 2-tuple linguistic terms and Fermatean fuzzy sets. The advantage of hesitant Fermatean 2-tuple linguistic information is that it can handle higher levels of uncertainty and express the decision-makers’ hesitancy. Second, we extend Bonferroni mean (BM) operators under the background of HF2TLSs for the sake of their application in information fusion and decision making. The Archimedean t-norm and s-norm- (ATS-) based hesitant Fermatean 2-tuple linguistic weighted Bonferroni mean (A-HF2TLWBM) operator and the ATS-based hesitant Fermatean 2-tuple linguistic weighted geometric Bonferroni mean (A-HF2TLWGBM) operator are developed by considering the interrelationship between any two variables. The main benefit of the proposed operators is that these operators deliver more complete and flexible results compared to existing methods. Moreover, some fundamental properties and special cases are examined by adjusting parameter values. Finally, an approach is designed as a support for handling decision making problems, and an example regarding investment selection is provided to demonstrate the practicality of the designed method with a detailed discussion of parameter influence and comparisons with the existing methods.

In many cases, use of Pythagorean hesitant fuzzy sets may not be sufficient to characterize uncertain information associated with decision making problems. From that view point the concept of interval-valued Pythagorean hesitant fuzzy sets are introduced in this paper. Considering the flexibility with the general parameters, Archimedean t-conorms and t-norms are applied to develop several operational laws in interval-valued Pythagorean hesitant fuzzy environment. Some characteristics of the developed operators are presented. The newly developed operators are used to derive a methodology for solving multicriteria decision making problems with interval-valued Pythagorean hesitant fuzzy information. Finally, two illustrative examples are provided to establish the validity of the proposed approach and are compared with the existing technique to exhibit its flexibility and effectiveness.

The theory of complex spherical fuzzy sets (CSFSs) is a mixture of two theories, i.e., complex fuzzy sets (CFSs) and spherical fuzzy sets (SFSs), to cope with uncertain and unreliable information in realistic decision-making situations. CSFSs contain three grades in the form of polar coordinates, e.g., truth, abstinence, and falsity, belonging to a unit disc in a complex plane, with a condition that the sum of squares of the real part of the truth, abstinence, and falsity grades is not exceeded by a unit interval. In this paper, we first consider some properties and their operational laws of CSFSs. Additionally, based on CSFSs, the complex spherical fuzzy Bonferroni mean (CSFBM) and complex spherical fuzzy weighted Bonferroni mean (CSFWBM) operators are proposed. The special cases of the proposed operators are also discussed. A multi-attribute decision making (MADM) problem was chosen to be resolved based on the proposed CSFBM and CSFWBM operators. We then propose the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to an Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) method based on CSFSs (CSFS-TOPSIS). An application example is given to delineate the proposed methods and a close examination is undertaken. The advantages and comparative analysis of the proposed approaches are also presented.

The partitioned Bonferroni mean (PBM) operator can efficiently aggregate inputs, which are divided into parts based on their interrelationships. To date, it has not been used to aggregate linguistic Pythagorean fuzzy numbers (LPFNs). In this paper, we extend the PBM operator and partitioned geometric Bonferroni mean (PGBM) operator to the linguistic Pythagorean fuzzy sets (LPFSs) and use them to develop a novel multiattribute group decision-making model under the linguistic Pythagorean fuzzy environment. We first define some novel operational laws for LPFNs, which take into consideration the interactions between the membership degree (MD) and nonmembership degree (NMD) from two different LPFNs. Based on these novel operational laws, we put forward the interaction PBM (LPFIPBM) operator, the weighted interaction PBM (LPFWIPBM) operator, the interaction PGBM (LPFIPGBM) operator, and the weighted interaction PGBM (LPFWIPGBM) operator. Then, we study some properties of these proposed operators and discuss their special cases. Based on the proposed LPFWIPBM and LPFWIPGBM operators, a novel multiattribute group decision-making model is developed to process the linguistic Pythagorean fuzzy information. Finally, some illustrative examples are introduced to compare our proposed methods with the existing ones.

This work is interested in showing the importance of possibility theory in multicriteria decision making (MCDM). Thus, we apply some possibility measures from literature to the MCDM method using interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IVIFSs). These measures are applied to a decision matrix after being transformed with aggregation operators. The results are compared between each other and concluding remarks are drawn.
