Rough set approaches encounter uncertainty by means of boundary regions instead of membership values. In this paper, we develop the topological structure on soft rough set ( SR -set) by using pairwise SR -approximations. We define SR -open set, SR -closed sets, SR -closure, SR -interior, SR -neighborhood, SR -bases, product topology on SR -sets, continuous mapping, and compactness in soft rough topological space ( SRTS ). The developments of the theory on SR -set and SR -topology exhibit not only an important theoretical value but also represent significant applications of SR -sets. We applied an algorithm based on SR -set to multi-attribute group decision making (MAGDM) to deal with uncertainty.

Intuitionistic fuzzy rough sets are constructed by combining intuitionistic fuzzy sets with rough sets. Recently, Huang et al. proposed the definition of an intuitionistic fuzzy (IF) β -covering and an IF covering rough set model. In this paper, some properties of IF β -covering approximation spaces and the IF covering rough set model are investigated further. Moreover, we present a novel methodology to the problem of multiple criteria group decision making. Firstly, some new notions and properties of IF β -covering approximation spaces are proposed. Secondly, we study the characterizations of Huang et al.’s IF covering rough set model and present a new IF covering rough set model for crisp sets in an IF environment. The relationships between these two IF covering rough set models and some other rough set models are investigated. Finally, based on the IF covering rough set model, Huang et al. also defined an optimistic multi-granulation IF rough set model. We present a novel method to multiple criteria group decision making problems under the optimistic multi-granulation IF rough set model.

In order to determine the membership of an element to a set owing to ambiguity between a few different values, the hesitant fuzzy set (HFS) has been proposed and widely diffused to deal with vagueness and uncertainty involved in the process of multiple criteria group decision making (MCGDM) problems. In this paper, we develop novel definitions of score function and distance measure for HFSs. Some examples are given to illustrate that the proposed definitions are more reasonable than the traditional ones. Furthermore, our study extends the MULTIMOORA (Multiple Objective Optimization on the basis of Ratio Analysis plus Full Multiplicative Form) method with HFSs. The proposed method thus provides the means for multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) regarding uncertain assessments. Utilization of hesitant fuzzy power aggregation operators also enables facilitating the process of MCGDM. A numerical example of software selection demonstrates the possibilities of application of the proposed method.
