In this paper, we investigate the multiple attribute decision making problems with triangular linguistic information. Motivated by the ideal of Bonferroni mean, we develop the aggregation techniques called the triangular linguistic Bonferroni mean (TLBM) operator for aggregating the triangular linguistic information. We study its properties and discuss its special cases. For the situations where the input arguments have different importance, we then define the triangular linguistic weighted Bonferroni mean (TLWBM) operator, based on which we develop the procedure for multiple attribute decision making under the triangular linguistic environments. Finally, a practical example for evaluating the engineer project risk is given to verify the developed approach and to demonstrate its practicality and effectiveness.

The intuitionistic linguistic variables are easier to describe the fuzzy information which widely exists in the real world, and Bonferroni mean can capture the interrelationship of the individual arguments. However, the traditional Bonferroni mean can only process the crisp number. In this paper, we will extend Bonferroni mean to the intuitionistic linguistic environment and propose a multiple attribute decision making method with intuitionistic linguistic information based on the extended Bonferroni mean which can consider the interrelationship of the attributes. Firstly, score function and accuracy function of intuitionistic linguistic numbers are introduced. Then, an intuitionistic linguistic Bonferroni mean (ILBM) operator and an intuitionistic linguistic weighted Bonferroni mean (ILWBM) operator are developed, and some desirable characteristics of them are studied. At the same time, some special cases with respect to the parameterspandqin Bonferroni are analyzed. Based on the ILWBM operator, the approach to multiple attribute decision making with intuitionistic linguistic information is proposed. Finally, an illustrative example is given to verify the developed approach and to demonstrate its effectiveness.

The aim of this paper is to develop partitioned Pythagorean fuzzy interaction Bonferroni mean operators based on the Pythagorean fuzzy set, Bonferroni mean, and interaction between membership and nonmembership. Several new aggregation operators are developed including the Pythagorean fuzzy interaction partitioned Bonferroni mean (PFIPBM) operator, the Pythagorean fuzzy weighted interaction partitioned Bonferroni mean (PFWIPBM) operator, the Pythagorean fuzzy interaction partitioned geometric Bonferroni mean (PFIPGBM) operator, and the Pythagorean fuzzy weighted interaction partitioned geometric Bonferroni mean (PFWIPGBM) operator. Some main properties and some special particular cases of the new operators are studied. Many existing operators are the special cases of new aggregation operators. Moreover, a multiple-attribute decision-making method based on the proposed operator has been developed and the investment company selection problem is presented to illustrate feasibility and practical advantages of the new method.

Considering the advantages of trapezoid fuzzy two-dimensional linguistic variables (TrF2DLVs), which can not only accurately describe the qualitative evaluation but also use qualitative linguistic variables (LVs) to describe the confidence level of this evaluation in the second dimension, this paper proposes a novel method based on trapezoidal fuzzy two-dimensional linguistic information to solve multiple attribute decision-making (MADM) problems with unknown attribute weight. First, a combination weight model is constructed, which covers a subjective weight determination model based on the proposed trapezoidal fuzzy two-dimensional linguistic best-worst method (TrF2DL-BWM) and an objective weight determination model based on the proposed CRITIC method. Then, in order to accurately rank the alternatives, an extended VIKOR-QUALIFLEX method is proposed, which can measure the concordance index of each ranking combination by means of group utility and individual maximum regret value of each evaluation alternative. Finally, a practical problem of lean management assessment for industrial residential projects is solved by the proposed method, and the effectiveness and advantages of the method are demonstrated by comparative analysis and discussion.

We investigate the multiple attribute decision making problems for evaluating the urban tourism management efficiency with uncertain linguistic information. We utilize the uncertain linguistic weighted averaging (ULWA) operator to aggregate the uncertain linguistic information corresponding to each alternative and get the overall value of the alternatives and, then rank the alternatives and select the most desirable one(s). Finally, a numerical example for evaluating the urban tourism management efficiency with uncertain linguistic information is used to illustrate the proposed model.

For multiple attribute decision making, ranking and information aggregation problems are increasingly receiving attention. In a normal neutrosophic number, the ranking method does not satisfy the ranking principle. Moreover, the proposed operators do not take into account the correlation between any aggregation arguments. In order to overcome the deficiencies of the existing ranking method, based on the nonnegative normal neutrosophic number, this paper redefines the score function, the accuracy function, and partial operational laws. Considering the correlation between any aggregation arguments, the dual generalized nonnegative normal neutrosophic weighted Bonferroni mean operator and dual generalized nonnegative normal neutrosophic weighted geometric Bonferroni mean operator were investigated, and their properties are presented. Here, these two operators are applied to deal with a multiple attribute decision making problem. Example results show that the proposed method is effective and superior.
