In this paper, we firstly introduced the unbalanced linguistic term sets, the linguistic transforming methodology, the Maclaurin symmetric mean (MSM) operator and dual MSM (DMSM) operator. Then, we proposed the closed operational rules of unbalanced linguistic variables, and several new MSM aggregation operators, including unbalanced linguistic MSM (ULMSM) operator, weighted unbalanced linguistic MSM (WULMSM) operator, unbalanced linguistic DMSM (ULDMSM) operator and weighted unbalanced linguistic DMSM (WULDMSM) operator. Further, we proposed two multiple attribute decision-making (MADM) methods under unbalanced linguistic environments based on the WULMSM operator and WULDMSM operator, respectively. Finally, a numerical example is used to show the applicability and effectiveness of the proposed MADM methods and to reveal their advantages by comparing with the existing methods.

When solving multiple attribute decision making (MADM) problems, the 2-tuple linguistic variable is an effective tool that can not only express complex cognitive information but also prevent loss of information in calculation. The picture fuzzy set (PFS) has three degrees and has more freedom to express cognitive information. In addition, Archimedean t-conorm and t-norm (ATT) can generalize most existing t-conorms and t-norms and Maclaurin symmetric mean (MSM) operators can catch the relationships among the multi-input parameters. Therefore, we investigate several novel aggregation operators, such as the picture 2-tuple linguistic MSM (2TLMSM) operator based on the ATT (ATT-P2TLMSM) and the picture 2-tuple linguistic generalized MSM (2TLGMSM) operator based on ATT (ATT-P2TLGMSM). Considering that the input parameters have different importance, we proposed picture 2-tuple linguistic weighted MSM (2TLWMSM) operators based on ATT (ATT-P2TLWMSM) and picture 2-tuple linguistic weighted generalized MSM (2TLWGMSM) operators based on ATT (ATT-P2TLWGMSM). Finally, a MADM method is introduced, and an expositive example is presented to explain the availability and applicability of the developed operators and methods.

Many experts and scholars focus on the Maclaurin symmetric mean (MSM) operator, which can reflect the interrelationship among the multi-input arguments. It has been generalized to different fuzzy environments and put into use in various actual decision problems. The fuzzy number intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (FNIFNs) could well depict the uncertainties and fuzziness during the English teaching quality evaluation. And the English teaching quality evaluation is frequently viewed as the multiple attribute decision-making (MADM) issue. We expand the MSM equation with FNIFNs to propose the fuzzy number intuitionistic fuzzy MSM (FNIFMSM) equation and fuzzy number intuitionistic fuzzy weighted MSM (FNIFWMSM) equation in this study. A few MADM tools are developed with FNIFWMSM equation. Finally, taking English teaching quality evaluation as an example, this paper illustrates the depicted approach.

In order to solve multiple-attribute group decision-making (MAGDM) problems under a trapezoid intuitionistic fuzzy linguistic (TIFL) environment and the relationships between multiple input parameters needed, in this paper, we extend the Maclaurin symmetric mean (MSM) operators to TIFL numbers (TIFLNs). Some new aggregation operators are proposed, including the trapezoid intuitionistic fuzzy linguistic Maclaurin symmetric mean (TIFLMSM) operator, trapezoid intuitionistic fuzzy linguistic generalized Maclaurin symmetric mean (TIFLGMSM) operator, trapezoid intuitionistic fuzzy linguistic weighted Maclaurin symmetric mean (TIFLWMSM) operator and trapezoid intuitionistic fuzzy linguistic weighted generalized Maclaurin symmetric mean (TIFLWGMSM) operator. Next, based on the TIFLWMSM and TIFLWGMSM operators, two methods are presented to deal with MAGDM problems. Finally, there is a numerical example to verify the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed approaches.

AbstractWe propound the idea of the partitioned dual Maclaurin symmetric mean (PDMSM) operator stimulated by the partitioned Maclaurin symmetric mean, suppose that we can partition overall attributes into some portions and the attributes are interrelated in the same portion, but the attributes are not interrelated in different portions. We can deal with decision-making issues using PDMSM operator in the intuitionistic fuzzy environment. We also analysis features and peculiar instance of the PDMSM operator. And, we extend the PDMSM operator to introduce the intuitionistic fuzzy partitioned dual Maclaurin symmetric mean operator and the weighted intuitionistic fuzzy partitioned dual Maclaurin symmetric mean operator. Then, we analysis several characteristics and peculiar instances of the developed operators. A new multiple attribute decision-making (MADM) approach grounded on the established weighted intuitionistic fuzzy partitioned dual Maclaurin symmetric mean operator is propounded; the MADM method is to choose the optimal alternative from several alternatives. Finally, we demonstrate the designed method is more general and effective than existing methods through comparative analysis.
