Fuzzy Setting

This paper is concerned with a TOPSIS method for fuzzy multiple attribute decision making, in which the information about attribute weights is completely known and the attribute values take form of intuitionistic fuzzy numbers. A class of distance for describing the deviation degrees between intuitionistic fuzzy sets is used to measure difference between two alternatives. A model of TOPSIS is designed with the introduction of the particular closeness coefficient composed of similarity degrees. Then, we apply the TOPSIS method to aggregate the fuzzy information corresponding to each alternative, and rank the alternatives according to their closeness coefficients. Finally, a numerical example is given to show the feasibility and effectiveness of the method.

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.

In this paper, some new operators for aggregating interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy information are proposed to deal with multiple attribute decision making problems. Firstly, the C-IFOWA operator and C-IFOWG operator are developed to aggregate all the values in the interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy numbers. Some of their desirable properties are also studied. Secondly, in order to aggregate a set of interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy numbers, some new aggregation operators are proposed based on the C-IFOWA operator and C-IFOWG operator. Thirdly, two methods for multiple attribute decision making, in which the attribute values are given in the forms of interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy numbers are presented. Finally, two numerical examples are provided to illustrate the practicality and validity of the proposed methods.

Multi Attribute Decision Making

Linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (LIFNs) is a new concept in describing the intuitionistic fuzzy information, which membership and non-membership are expressed by linguistic terms, so it can more easily express the fuzzy information, and some research results on LIFNs have been achieved. However, in the existing researches, some linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy aggregation operators are based on the traditional operational rules, and they have some drawbacks for multi-attribute decision making (MADM) in the practical application. In order to overcome these problems, in this paper, we proposed some improved operational rules based on LIFNs and verified their some properties. Then we developed some aggregation operators to fuse the decision information represented by LIFNs, including the improved linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy weighted averaging (ILIFWA) operator and the improved linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy weighted power average (ILIFWPA) operator. Further, we proved their some desirable properties. Based on the ILIFWA operator and the ILIFWPA operator, we presented some new methods to deal with the multi-attribute group decision making (MAGDM) problems under the linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy environment. Finally, we used some practical examples to illustrate the validity and feasibility of the proposed methods by comparing with other methods.

Special Cases

Some hybrid aggregation operators have been developed based on linguistic hesitant intuitionistic fuzzy information. The generalized linguistic hesitant intuitionistic fuzzy hybrid weighted averaging (GLHIFHWA) operator and the generalized linguistic hesitant intuitionistic fuzzy hybrid geometric mean (GLHIFHGM) operator are defined. Some special cases of the new aggregation operators are studied and many existing aggregation operators are special cases of the new operators. A new multiple attribute decision making method based on the new aggregation operators is proposed and a practical numerical example is presented to illustrate the feasibility and practical advantages of the new method.
