Abstract Inspired by the nonlinear weighted average operator, this paper proposes several generalized power average operators to aggregate hesitant fuzzy linguistic decision information. It is worth noting that the new operators take both the location and date weight information and the relative closeness of the decision-making information into consideration, a characteristic that results in objectivity and fairness in a group decision making. Moreover, we demonstrate some useful properties of the operators and discuss their associations. A new approach based on the designed operators is then proposed for hesitant fuzzy linguistic multiple attribute group decision-making problems, in which the attribute weights are known or unknown. Finally, this paper demonstrates the efficiency and feasibility of the proposed method through a numerical example.

With respect to multiple attribute group decision making (MAGDM) problems, in which the attribute weights take the form of real numbers, and the attribute values take the form of fuzzy linguistic scale variables, a decision analysis approach is proposed. In this paper, we develop a new fuzzy linguistic induce OWA (FLIOWA) operator and analyze the properties of it by utilizing some operational laws of fuzzy linguistic scale variables. A method based on the FLIOWA operators for multiple attribute group decision making is presented. Finally, a numerical example is used to illustrate the applicability and effectiveness of the proposed method.

In this paper, we develop an intuitionistic fuzzy linguistic induce OWA (IFLIOWA) operator and analyze the properties of it by utilizing some operational laws of intuitionistic fuzzy linguistic variables. A new method based on the IFLIOWA operator for multiple attribute group decision making (MAGDM) is presented. Finally, a numerical example is used to illustrate the applicability and effectiveness of the proposed method.

Abstract In this paper, by integrating the q-rung orthopair fuzzy set (q-ROFS) with the N-soft set (NSS), we first propose a q-rung orthopair fuzzy N-soft set (q-ROFNSS). Based on the q-ROFNSS, then we explore the q-rung orthopair fuzzy N-soft weighted average (q-ROFNSWA) operator and q-rung orthopair fuzzy N-soft weighted geometric (q-ROFNSWG) operator, and investigate some properties of the q-ROFNSWG operator and q-ROFNSWG operator including idempotency, monotonicity and boundedness. Finally, two kinds of multiple-attribute group decision making (MAGDM) methods based on q-rung orthopair fuzzy N-soft aggregation operators are established. In addition, a practical example is provided to illustrate the effectiveness and correctness of the new decision-making approaches. Through comparison with existing methods, the advantages of our method are elaborated.

Magdm Problems

In this paper, we consider multiple attribute group decision making (MAGDM) problems in which the attribute values take the form of intuitionistic uncertain linguistic variables. Based on Hamacher operations, we developed several Hamacher aggregation operators, which generalize the arithmetic aggregation operators and geometric aggregation operators, and extend the algebraic aggregation operators and Einstein aggregation operators. A number of special cases for the two operators with respect to the parameters are discussed in detail. Also, we developed an intuitionistic uncertain linguistic generalized Hamacher hybrid weighted average operator to reflect the importance degrees of both the given intuitionistic uncertain linguistic variables and their ordered positions. Based on the generalized Hamacher aggregation operator, we propose a method for MAGDM for intuitionistic uncertain linguistic sets. Finally, a numerical example and comparative analysis with related decision making methods are provided to illustrate the practicality and feasibility of the proposed method.

In this paper, we develop some new aggregation operators with pure linguistic information including the uncertain pure linguistic weighted geometric mean (UPLWGM) operator, the induced uncertain pure linguistic ordered weighted geometric mean (IUPLOWGM) operator, and the induced uncertain pure linguistic hybrid geometric mean (IUPLHGM) operator. These developed aggregation operators are very suitable to deal with the situation where the input arguments are represented in uncertain pure linguistic variables. Also, as a more general type of aggregation operator, the IUPLHGM operator is based on the UPLWGM and IUPLOWGM operators, and it can reflect the importance degrees of both the given uncertain linguistic variables and their ordered positions. Moreover, in the situations where the information about all the attribute weights, the attribute values and the expert weights are expressed in the form of linguistic labels variables, we develop an approach based on the IUPLHGM operator for multiple attribute group decision making with pure linguistic information. Finally, an application of the developed approach to group decision making problem regarding the selection of investments is given. Also, we present a comparative analysis with other related decision making methods to demonstrate the effectiveness of the developed approach.

The power ordered weighted average (POWA) operator and the power ordered weighted geometric (POWG) operator are the two nonlinear weighted average aggregation tools whose weighting vectors depend on their input arguments. In this paper, as a more general type of POWA and POWG operators, respectively, we develop two induced power aggregation operators called the induced POWA (IPOWA) operator and the induced POWG (IPOWG) operator, respectively, and establish various properties of these induced power aggregation operators, and then apply them, respectively, to develop an approach to multiple attribute group decision making.
