Picture fuzzy sets (PFSs) can be used to handle real-life problems with uncertainty and vagueness more effectively than intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFSs). In the process of information aggregation, many aggregation operators under PFSs are used by different authors in different fields. In this article, a multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) problem is introduced utilizing harmonic mean aggregation operators with trapezoidal fuzzy number (TrFN) under picture fuzzy information. Three harmonic mean operators are developed namely trapezoidal picture fuzzy weighted harmonic mean (TrPFWHM) operator, trapezoidal picture fuzzy order weighted harmonic mean (TrPFOWHM) operator and trapezoidal picture fuzzy hybrid harmonic mean (TrPFHHM) operator. The related properties about these operators are also studied. At last, an MADM problem is considered to interrelate among these operators. Furthermore, a numerical instance is considered to explain the productivity of the proposed operators.

This electronic document is a “live” template. The various components of your paper [title, text, heads, etc.] are already defined on the style sheet, as illustrated by the portions given in this document. Due to the nature of vagueness inherent to real-life situations, some fuzzy data are deemed to suitable enough to describe the qualitative and/or quantitative estimation for decision making problems. Therefore, a new method for multiple attribute decision making under fuzzy environment is discussed, in which the attribute values take the form of intuitionistic fuzzy numbers. To overcome some disadvantages of existing distance measures like indiscrimination, counterintuitive results and difficulty of interpretation, we introduce a new class of distance for describing the deviation degrees between intuitionistic fuzzy sets. Furthermore, the measure of similarity degree for each alternative to ideal point is calculated through using the new proposed fuzzy distance. A model of TOPSIS is designed with the introduction of the particular closeness coefficient composed of similarity degrees. Then, we extend the TOPSIS method to aggregate the fuzzy information corresponding to each alternative, and rank the alternatives according to their closeness coefficients. Finally, an illustrative example is given to demonstrate the proposed approach practicality and effectiveness.

We investigate the multiple attribute decision-making (MADM) problems with hesitant triangular fuzzy information. Firstly, definition and some operational laws of hesitant triangular fuzzy elements are introduced. Then, we develop some hesitant triangular fuzzy aggregation operators based on Bonferroni means and discuss their basic properties. Some existing operators can be viewed as their special cases. Next, we apply the proposed operators to deal with multiple attribute decision-making problems under hesitant triangular fuzzy environment. Finally, an illustrative example is given to show the developed method and demonstrate its practicality and effectiveness.

Hesitant Fuzzy Set (HFS) permits the membership function having a collection of probable values which are more effective for modelling the real-life problems. Multiple Attribute Decision Making (MADM) process apparently assesses multiple conflicting attribute in decision making. In traditional decision making problems, each player is moving independently whereas in reality it is seen that each player aims to maximize personal profit which causes a negative impact on other player. MADM problem treats with candidate to the best alternative corresponding to the several attributes. Here, we present an MADM problem under hesitant fuzzy information and then transforming it into two-person matrix game, referred to herein as MADM game. The Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) is one of the prominent approach for solving the MADM problems. In this work, we develop the TOPSIS based on Ordered Weighted Aggregation (OWA) operator and hybrid hesitant fuzzy normalized Euclidean distance. Then the two approaches, namely Hybrid Hesitant Fuzzy Ordered Weighted Aggregation-TOPSIS (HHFOWA-TOPSIS) and the Linear Programming Problem (LPP) are applied to solve the formulated MADM game. For solving MADM game, we apply LPP by considering the various values of $\alpha, \psi$, and HHFOWA-TOPSIS for finding the optimal alternative according to their scores. An investment selection problem is included to explain the feasibility and superiority of our formulated approaches. A comparison analysis is drawn among the obtained results which are derived from the two approaches. LPP and HHFOWA-TOPSIS provide the best alternative for the proposed problem. Finally, conclusions about our findings and outlooks are described.

Many aggregation operators in multiattribute decisions assume that attributes are independent of each other; this leads to an unreasonable situation in information aggregation and decision-making. Heronian mean is the aggregation operator that can embody the interaction between attributes. In this paper, we merge the linguistic neutrosophic cubic number (LNCN) and the Heronian mean operator together to develop a LNCN generalized weighted Heronian mean (LNCNGWHM) operator and a LNCN three-parameter weighted Heronian mean (LNCNTPWHM) operator and then discuss their properties. Further, two multiattribute decision methods based on the proposed LNCNGWHM or LNCNTPWHM operator are introduced under LNCN environment. Finally, an example is used to indicate the effectiveness of the developed methods.

Fermatean fuzzy set (FFS) is a more efficient, flexible, and generalized model to deal with uncertainty, as compared to intuitionistic and Pythagorean fuzzy models. This research article presents a novel multiple-attribute decision-making (MADM) technique based on FFS. Aggregation operators (AOs), for example, Dombi, Einstein, and Hamacher, are frequently being used in the MADM process and are considered useful tools for evaluating the given alternatives. Among these, one of the most effective is the Hamacher operator. The salient feature of this operator is that it reduces the impact of negative information and provides more accurate results. Motivated by the primary characteristics of the Hamacher operator, we apply Hamacher interactive aggregation operators based on FFSs to determine the best alternative. Using Hamacher’s norm operations, we introduce some new geometric operators, namely, Fermatean fuzzy Hamacher interactive weighted geometric (FFHIWG) operator, Fermatean fuzzy Hamacher interactive ordered weighted geometric (FFHIOWG) operator, and Fermatean fuzzy Hamacher interactive hybrid weighted geometric (FFHIHWG) operator. Some important results and properties of the proposed AOs are discussed, and to achieve the optimal alternative, the proposed MADM technique is carried out in a real-life application of the medical field. An algorithm of the proposed technique is also developed. The significance of the proposed method is that Fermatean fuzzy Hamacher interactive geometric (FFHIG) operators deal with the relationship among belongingness degree (BD) and nonbelongingness degree (NBD) of the objects, which perform a crucial role in decision-making (DM). At last, to show the exactness and validity of the proposed work, a comparative analysis of the proposed model and the existing models is presented.

In this paper, a hesitant probabilistic fuzzy multiple attribute group decision making is studied. First, some Einstein operations on hesitant probability fuzzy elements such as the Einstein sum, Einstein product, and Einstein scalar multiplication are presented and their properties are discussed. Then, several hesitant probabilistic fuzzy Einstein aggregation operators, including the hesitant probabilistic fuzzy Einstein weighted averaging operator and the hesitant probabilistic fuzzy Einstein weighted geometric operator and so on, are introduced. Moreover, some desirable properties and special cases are investigated. It is shown that some existing hesitant fuzzy aggregation operators and hesitant probabilistic fuzzy aggregation operators are special cases of the proposed operators. Further, based on the proposed operators, a new approach of hesitant probabilistic fuzzy multiple attribute decision making is developed. Finally, a practical example is provided to illustrate the developed approach.
