Abstract
Completing the Pythagorean fuzzy preference relations (PFPRs) based on additive consistency may exceed the defined domain. Therefore, we develop a group decision-making (GDM) method with incomplete PFPRs. Firstly, sufficient conditions for the expressibility of estimated preference values in PFPRs based on additive consistency are presented. Next, the correction algorithm is developed to correct the inexpressible elements in incomplete PFPRs. Then, a GDM method based on incomplete PFPRs is proposed to determine the objective weights of decision-makers. Finally, an example of subway station safety management during COVID-19 is selected to illustrate the applicability of the developed GDM method. The results show that the developed GDM method effectively identifies the crucial risk factor in subway station safety management and has better performance in terms of computational time complexity than the multiplicative consistency method.
