The T-Spherical Fuzzy set (T-SPHFS) is one of the core simplifications of quite a lot of fuzzy concepts such as fuzzy set (FS), intuitionistic fuzzy set (ITFS), picture fuzzy set (PIFS), Q-rung orthopair fuzzy set (Q-RUOFS), etc. T-SPHFS reveals fuzzy judgment by the degree of positive membership, degree of abstinence, degree of negative membership, and degree of refusal with relaxed conditions, and this is a more powerful mathematical tool to pair with inconsistent, indecisive, and indistinguishable information. In this article, several novel operational laws for T-SPFNs based on the Schweizer–Sklar t-norm (SSTN) and the Schweizer–Sklar t-conorm (SSTCN) are initiated, and some desirable characteristics of these operational laws are investigated. Further, maintaining the dominance of the power aggregation (POA) operators that confiscate the ramifications of the inappropriate data and Heronian mean (HEM) operators that consider the interrelationship among the input information being aggregated, we intend to focus on the T-Spherical fuzzy Schweizer–Sklar power Heronian mean (T-SPHFSSPHEM) operator, the T-Spherical fuzzy Schweizer–Sklar power geometric Heronian mean (T-SPHFSSPGHEM) operator, the T-Spherical fuzzy Schweizer–Sklar power weighted Heronian mean (T-SPHFSSPWHEM) operator, the T-Spherical fuzzy Schweizer–Sklar power weighted geometric Heronian mean (T-SPHFSSPWGHEM) operator, and their core properties and exceptional cases in connection with the parameters. Additionally, deployed on these newly initiated aggregation operators (AOs), a novel multiple attribute decision making (MADM) model is proposed. Then, the initiated model is applied to the City of Penticton (British Columbia, Canada) to select the best choice among the accessible seven water reuse choices to manifest the practicality and potency of the preferred model and a comparison with the proffered models is also particularized.

In multiple attribute decision-making (MADM), to better denote complicated preference information of decision-makers (DMs), picture fuzzy set (PFS) as an expansion of intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS) has become a powerful tool in the recent years. Meanwhile, to remove the impact of abnormal data and capture the correlations among attributes in MADM issue, we propose the power improved generalized Heronian mean (PIGHM) operators in this paper, which have the merits of both power average (PA) operator and improved generalized Heronian mean (IGHM) operator. Additionally, Hamacher operations as a generalization of Algebraic operations and Einstein operations demonstrate good smooth approximate. Motivated by these, the main purpose is to explore PIGHM operators utilizing Hamacher operations to cope with MADM issue with picture fuzzy information. First, we introduce the Hamacher operations, the normalized hamming distance, and similarity measure of picture fuzzy numbers (PHNs). Second, based on these, two new picture fuzzy aggregating operators (AOs), the picture fuzzy Hamacher weighted power improved generalized Heronian mean (PFHWPIGHM) operator and the picture fuzzy Hamacher weighted geometric power improved generalized Heronian mean (PFHWGPIGHM) operator, are put forward, and some properties and special instances of proposed AOs are also investigated. Third, a new MADM model in terms of the PIGHM AOs is developed. Eventually, a practical MADM example, together with sensitivity analysis and comparative analysis, is conducted to verify the credibility and superiority of the new MADM model.

AbstractOn the basis of the combination of single-valued neutrosophic sets and hesitant fuzzy sets, this article proposes a single-valued neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy set (SVNHFS) as a further generalization of the concepts of fuzzy set, intuitionistic fuzzy set, single-valued neutrosophic set, hesitant fuzzy set, and dual hesitant fuzzy set. Then, we introduce the basic operational relations and cosine measure function of SVNHFSs. Also, we develop a single-valued neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy weighted averaging (SVNHFWA) operator and a single-valued neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy weighted geometric (SVNHFWG) operator and investigate their properties. Furthermore, a multiple-attribute decision-making method is established on the basis of the SVNHFWA and SVNHFWG operators and the cosine measure under a single-valued neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy environment. Finally, an illustrative example of investment alternatives is given to demonstrate the application and effectiveness of the developed approach.

Cognitive Information

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.

Multiple attribute decision making (MADM) is full of uncertainty and vagueness due to intrinsic complexity, limited experience and individual cognition. Representative decision theories include fuzzy set (FS), intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS), hesitant fuzzy set (HFS), dual hesitant fuzzy set (DHFS) and so on. Compared with IFS and HFS, DHFS has more advantages in dealing with uncertainties in real MADM problems and possesses good symmetry. The membership degrees and non-membership degrees in DHFS are simultaneously permitted to represent decision makers’ preferences by a given set having diverse possibilities. In this paper, new distance measures for dual hesitant fuzzy sets (DHFSs) are developed in terms of the mean, variance and number of elements in the dual hesitant fuzzy elements (DHFEs), which overcomes some deficiencies of the existing distance measures for DHFSs. The proposed distance measures are effectively applicable to solve MADM problems where the attribute weights are completely unknown. With the help of the new distance measures, the attribute weights are objectively determined, and the closeness coefficients of each alternative can be objectively obtained to generate optimal solution. Finally, an evaluation problem of airline service quality is conducted by using the distance-based MADM method to demonstrate its validity and applicability.

The intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS) characterized by a membership function and a non-membership function, was introduced by Atanassov [K. Atanassov, "Intuitionistic fuzzy sets", Fuzzy Sets and Systems 20 (1986) 87–96] as a generalization of Zadeh' fuzzy set [L. A. Zadeh, "Fuzzy Sets", Information and Control 8 (1965) 338–353] to deal with fuzziness and uncertainty. In this paper, we investigate the multiple attribute decision making (MADM) problems, in which the information about attribute weights is incomplete, and the attribute values are expressed in intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (IFNs). We first define the concept of intuitionistic fuzzy ideal solution (IFIS), and then, based on the IFIS and the distance measure, we establish some optimization models to derive the attribute weights. Furthermore, based on the developed models, we develop some procedures for the rankings of alternatives under different situations, and extend the developed models and procedures to handle the MADM problems with interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy information. Finally, we give some illustrative examples to verify the effectiveness and practicability of the developed models and procedures.

As an extension of the intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS), the recently proposed picture fuzzy set (PFS) is more suitable to describe decision-makers’ evaluation information in decision-making problems. Picture fuzzy aggregation operators are of high importance in multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) within a picture fuzzy decision-making environment. Hence, in this paper our main work is to introduce novel picture fuzzy aggregation operators. Firstly, we propose new picture fuzzy operational rules based on Dombi t-conorm and t-norm (DTT). Secondly, considering the existence of a broad and widespread correlation between attributes, we use Heronian mean (HM) information aggregation technology to fuse picture fuzzy numbers (PFNs) and propose new picture fuzzy aggregation operators. The proposed operators not only fuse individual attribute values, but also have a good ability to model the widespread correlation among attributes, making them more suitable for effectively solving increasingly complicated MADM problems. Hence, we introduce a new algorithm to handle MADM based on the proposed operators. Finally, we apply the newly developed method and algorithm in a supplier selection issue. The main novelties of this work are three-fold. Firstly, new operational laws for PFSs are proposed. Secondly, novel picture fuzzy aggregation operators are developed. Thirdly, a new approach for picture fuzzy MADM is proposed.

Abstract The Picture fuzzy linguistic set (PFLS) is an extension of intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS) and linguistic variables (LVs), which has been applied successfully in the process of decision making. Considering the lack of closeness of extant PFLS operations and the interrelationship among input attributes do not considered. In this paper, for the sake of addressing those limitations, we firstly redefine some novel operational laws for PFLS by introducing linguistic scale functions and the related properties are studied. Then, new score function and accuracy function are also defined to compare PFLSs. Subsequently, in consideration of the superiority of Muirhead Mean (MM) operator in capturing the interaction relationship between the input parameters, we extend the MM operator to the picture fuzzy linguistic context, and then propose picture fuzzy linguistic weighted MM operator and its dual form in a new light. After that, we have adopted these operators to build two novel models to solve multiple attribute decision making (MADM) problems. Finally, a practical example for the selection of the innovative ``Mobike'' sharing bike design is provided to illustrate the practicality and effectiveness of our developed approaches.

Supplier Selection Problem

With the increasing complexity of the human social environment, it is impossible to describe each object in detail with accurate numbers when solving multiple attribute decision-making (MADM) problems. Compared with the fuzzy set (FS), the intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS) not only has obvious advantages in allocating ambiguous values to the object to be considered, but also takes into account the degree of membership and non-membership, so it is more suitable for decision makers (DMs) to deal with complex realistic problems. Therefore, it is of great significance to propose a MADM method under an intuitionistic fuzzy environment. Moreover, compared with the traditional 2WD, by putting forward the option of delay, the decision-making risk can be effectively reduced using three-way decision (3WD). In addition, the binary relations between objects in the decision-making process have been continuously generalized, such as equivalence relation which have symmetrical relationship, dominance relation and outranking relation, which are worthy of study. In this paper, we propose 3WD-MADM method based on IF environment and the objective IFS is calculated by using the information table. Then, the hybrid information table is used to solve the supplier selection problem to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

2-Dimension uncertain linguistic variables can describe both subjective evaluation result of attributes and reliability of the evaluation results in multiple attribute decision making problems. However, it is difficult to aggregate these evaluation information and give comprehensive results. Heronian mean (HM) has the characteristic of capturing the correlations between aggregated arguments and is extended to solve this problem. The 2-dimension uncertain linguistic weighted HM aggregation( 2DULWHMA) operator is employed in this paper. Firstly, the definition, properties, expectations and the operational laws the 2-dimension uncertain linguistic variables are investigated. Furthermore, the properties of the 2DULWHMA operators, such as commutativity, idempotency and monotonicity, etc. are studied. Some special cases of the generalized parameters in these operators are analyzed. Finally, an example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method.
