Multi-Attribute Decision-Support System Based on Aggregations of Interval-Valued Complex Neutrosophic Hypersoft Set

Hypersoft set is an emerging field of study that is meant to address the insufficiency and the limitation of existing soft-set-like models regarding the consideration and the entitlement of multi-argument approximate function. This type of function maps the multi-subparametric tuples to the power set of the universe. It focuses on the partitioning of each attribute into its attribute-valued set that is missing in existing soft-set-like structures. This study aims to introduce novel concepts of complex intuitionistic fuzzy set and complex neutrosophic set under the hypersoft set environment with interval-valued settings. Two novel structures, that is, interval-valued complex intuitionistic hypersoft set (IV-CIFHS-set) and interval-valued complex neutrosophic hypersoft set (IV-CNHS-set), are developed via employing theoretic, axiomatic, graphical, and algorithmic approaches. After conceptual characterization of essential elementary notions of these structures, decision-support systems are presented with the proposal of algorithms to assist the decision-making process. The proposed algorithms are validated with the help of real-world applications. A comprehensive inter-cum-intra comparison of proposed structures is discussed with the existing relevant models, and their generalization is elaborated under certain evaluating features.

On Certain Products of Complex Intuitionistic Fuzzy Graphs

A complex intuitionistic fuzzy set (CIFS) can be used to model problems that have both intuitionistic uncertainty and periodicity. A diagram composed of nodes connected by lines and labeled with specific information may be used to depict a wide range of real-life and physical events. Complex intuitionistic fuzzy graphs (CIFGs) are a broader type of diagram that may be used to manipulate data. In this paper, we define the key operations direct, semistrong, strong, and modular products for complex intuitionistic fuzzy graphs and look at some interesting findings. Further, the strong complex intuitionistic fuzzy graph is defined, and several significant findings are developed. Furthermore, we study the behavior of the degree of a vertex in the modular product of two complex intuitionistic fuzzy graphs.

Complex linear Diophantine fuzzy sets and their cosine similarity measures with applications

In this paper, the concept of complex linear Diophantine fuzzy set (CLDFS), which is obtained by integrating the phase term into the structure of the linear Diophantine fuzzy set (LDFS) and thus is an extension of LDFS, is introduced. In other words, the ranges of grades of membership, non-membership, and reference parameters in the structure of LDFS are extended from the interval [0, 1] to unit circle in the complex plane. Besides, this set approach is proposed to remove the conditions associated with the grades of complex-valued membership and complex-valued non-membership in the framework of complex intuitionistic fuzzy set (CIFS), complex Pythagorean fuzzy set (CPyFS), and complex q-rung orthopair fuzzy set (Cq-ROFS). It is proved that each of CIFS, CPyFS, and Cq-ROFS is a CLDFS, but not vice versa. In addition, some operations and relations on CLDFSs are derived and their fundamental properties are investigated. The intuitive definitions of cosine similarity measure (CSM) and cosine distance measure (CDM) between two CLDFSs are introduced and their characteristic principles are examined. An approach based on CSM is proposed to tackle medical diagnosis issues and its performance is tested by dealing with numerical examples. Finally, a comparative study of the proposed approach with several existing approaches is created and its advantages are discussed.

Complex intuitionistic fuzzy Maclaurin symmetric mean operators and its application to emergency program selection

Due to the indeterminacy and uncertainty of the decision-makers (DM) in the complex decision making problems of daily life, evaluation and aggregation of the information usually becomes a complicated task. In literature many theories and fuzzy sets (FS) are presented for the evaluation of these decision tasks, but most of these theories and fuzzy sets have failed to explain the uncertainty and vagueness in the decision making issues. Therefore, we use complex intuitionistic fuzzy set (CIFS) instead of fuzzy set and intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS). A new type of aggregation operation is also developed by the use of complex intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (CIFNs), their accuracy and the score functions are also discussed in detail. Moreover, we utilized the Maclaurin symmetric mean (MSM) operator, which have the ability to capture the relationship among multi-input arguments, as a result, CIF Maclarurin symmetric mean (CIFMSM) operator and CIF dual Maclaurin symmetric mean (CIFDMSM) operator are presented and their characteristics are discussed in detail. On the basis of these operators, a MAGDM method is presented for the solution of group decision making problems. Finally, the validation of the propounded approach is proved by evaluating a numerical example, and by the comparison with the previously researched results.

Extensions of prioritized weighted aggregation operators for decision-making under complex q-rung orthopair fuzzy information

The complex q-rung orthopair fuzzy set (Cq-ROFS), an efficient generalization of complex intuitionistic fuzzy set (CIFS) and complex Pythagorean fuzzy set (CPFS), is potent tool to handle the two-dimensional information and has larger ability to translate the more uncertainty of human judgment then CPFS as it relaxes the constrains of CPFS and thus the space of allowable orthopair increases. To solve the multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) problem by considering that criteria are at the same priority level may affect the results because in realistic situations the priority level of criteria is different. In this manuscript, we propose some useful prioritized AOs under Cq-ROF environment by considering the prioritization among attributes. We develop two prioritized AOs, namely complex q-rung orthropair fuzzy prioritized weighted averaging (C-qROFPWA) operator and complex q-rung orthropair fuzzy prioritized weighted geometric (Cq-ROFPWG) operator. We also consider their desirable properties and two special cases with their detailed proofs. Moreover, we investigate a new technique to solve the MCDM problem by initiating an algorithm along with flowchart on the bases of proposed operators. Further, we solve a practical example to reveal the importance of proposed AOs. Finally, we apply the existing operators on the same data to compare our computed result to check the superiority and validity of our proposed operators.
