Multi-Attribute Multi-Perception Decision-Making Based on Generalized T-Spherical Fuzzy Weighted Aggregation Operators on Neutrosophic Sets

The framework of the T-spherical fuzzy set is a recent development in fuzzy set theory that can describe imprecise events using four types of membership grades with no restrictions. The purpose of this manuscript is to point out the limitations of the existing intuitionistic fuzzy Einstein averaging and geometric operators and to develop some improved Einstein aggregation operators. To do so, first some new operational laws were developed for T-spherical fuzzy sets and their properties were investigated. Based on these new operations, two types of Einstein aggregation operators are proposed namely the Einstein interactive averaging aggregation operators and the Einstein interactive geometric aggregation operators. The properties of the newly developed aggregation operators were then investigated and verified. The T-spherical fuzzy aggregation operators were then applied to a multi-attribute decision making (MADM) problem related to the degree of pollution of five major cities in China. Actual datasets sourced from the UCI Machine Learning Repository were used for this purpose. A detailed study was done to determine the most and least polluted city for different perceptions for different situations. Several compliance tests were then outlined to test and verify the accuracy of the results obtained via our proposed decision-making algorithm. It was proved that the results obtained via our proposed decision-making algorithm was fully compliant with all the tests that were outlined, thereby confirming the accuracy of the results obtained via our proposed method.

Algorithm for T-Spherical Fuzzy Multi-Attribute Decision Making Based on Improved Interactive Aggregation Operators

The objective of this manuscript is to present some new, improved aggregation operators for the T-spherical fuzzy sets, which is an extension of the several existing sets, such as intuitionistic fuzzy sets, picture fuzzy sets, neutrosophic sets, and Pythagorean fuzzy sets. In it, some new, improved operational laws and their corresponding properties are studied. Further, based on these laws, we propose some geometric aggregation operators and study their various relationships. Desirable properties, as well as some special cases of the proposed operators, are studied. Then, based on these proposed operators, we present a decision-making approach to solve the multi-attribute decision-making problems. The reliability of the presented decision-making method is explored with the help of a numerical example and the proposed results are compared with several prevailing studies’ results. Finally, the superiority of the proposed approach is explained with a counter example to show the advantages of the proposed work.

Algorithm for Probabilistic Dual Hesitant Fuzzy Multi-Criteria Decision-Making Based on Aggregation Operators With New Distance Measures

Probabilistic dual hesitant fuzzy set (PDHFS) is an enhanced version of a dual hesitant fuzzy set (DHFS) in which each membership and non-membership hesitant value is considered along with its occurrence probability. These assigned probabilities give more details about the level of agreeness or disagreeness. By emphasizing the advantages of the PDHFS and the aggregation operators, in this manuscript, we have proposed several weighted and ordered weighted averaging and geometric aggregation operators by using Einstein norm operations, where the preferences related to each object is taken in terms of probabilistic dual hesitant fuzzy elements. Several desirable properties and relations are also investigated in details. Also, we have proposed two distance measures and its based maximum deviation method to compute the weight vector of the different criteria. Finally, a multi-criteria group decision-making approach is constructed based on proposed operators and the presented algorithm is explained with the help of the numerical example. The reliability of the presented decision-making method is explored with the help of testing criteria and by comparing the results of the example with several prevailing studies.
