The project of construction barriers removal is a comprehensive planning task and it demands a suitable support for identification, and priority ranking of facilities necessary for barriers removal. This paper proposes a multicirteria Intuitionistic Fuzzy (IF) ELECTRE model to support decision makers in the process of managing of removal project of construction barriers for physically disabled in high schools. IF ELECTRE approach is used to deal with complex problems, where decision-makers have ambiguities and dualities in evaluation of considered solution. Hereby 17 high schools are defined and seven criteria are determined by decision-makers. These criteria are further used for the alternatives assessments. Each DM is also evaluated by linguistic and numerical values, assigning them this way an importance according to their background and the years of experience. The Intuitionistic Fuzzy Weighted Average (IFWA) operator is calculated to achieve aggregated alternatives evaluations. Furthermore, concordance and discordance sets and indexes are calculated to obtain dominance matrix and final ranking of schools for the construction barriers removal. The model is validated on high schools in the city of Split. Using IF theory, the given problematic can be operated more effectively by diminishing the inaccuracy of available information.

Information system (IS) project selection is of critical importance to every organization in dynamic competing environment. The aim of this paper is to develop a hybrid multicriteria group decision making approach based on intuitionistic fuzzy theory for IS project selection. The decision makers’ assessment information can be expressed in the form of real numbers, interval-valued numbers, linguistic variables, and intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (IFNs). All these evaluation pieces of information can be transformed to the form of IFNs. Intuitionistic fuzzy weighted averaging (IFWA) operator is utilized to aggregate individual opinions of decision makers into a group opinion. Intuitionistic fuzzy entropy is used to obtain the entropy weights of the criteria. TOPSIS method combined with intuitionistic fuzzy set is proposed to select appropriate IS project in group decision making environment. Finally, a numerical example for information system projects selection is given to illustrate application of hybrid multi-criteria group decision making (MCGDM) method based on intuitionistic fuzzy theory and TOPSIS method.

Intuitionistic fuzzy set is a very useful tool to depict uncertainty. Lots of multi-criteria group decision making methods under intuitionistic fuzzy environment have been developed. Current methods are under the assumption that the criteria and the decision makers are at the same priority level. However, in real group decision making problems, criteria and decision makers have different priority level commonly. In this paper, multi-criteria group decision making problems where there exists a prioritization relationship over the criteria and decision makers are studied. First, the intuitionistic fuzzy prioritized weighted average (IFPWA) and the intuitionistic fuzzy prioritized weighted geometric (IFPWG) operators are proposed. Then, some of their desirable properties are investigated in detail. Furthermore, the procedure of multi-criteria group decision making based on the proposed operators is given under intuitionistic fuzzy environment. Finally, a practical example about talent introduction is provided to illustrate the developed method.

As an effective tool to express the subjective preferences of decision makers, the linguistic term sets (LTS) have been widely used in group decision-making (GDM) problems, such as hesitant fuzzy LTS, linguistic hesitant fuzzy sets, probabilistic LTS, etc. However, due to the increasing complexity of practical decision-making (DM) problems, LTS still has a lot of room to expand in fuzzy theory. Qualitative uncertainty information in the application of GDM is yet to be improved. Therefore, in order to improve the applicability of linguistic terms in DM problems, a probabilistic uncertain linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy set (PULIFS) that can fully express the decision-maker’s (DM’s) evaluation information is first proposed. To improve the rationality of DM results, we give a method for determining individual weights in the probabilistic uncertain linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy preference relation (PULIFPR) environment. In addition, we present two consistency definitions of PULIFPR to reflect both the assessment information and risk attitudes of decision makers. Subsequently, a series of goal programming models (GPMs) are established, which effectively avoid the consistency check and correction process of existing methods. Finally, the developed method is applied to an empirical example concerning the selection of a virtual reality (VR) project. The advantages of the proposed method are demonstrated by comparative analysis.
