Utilizing renewable energies is identified as one of significant issues for economical and social significance in future human life. Thus, choosing the best renewable energy among renewable energy candidates is more important. To address the issue, multi-criteria group decision making (MCGDM) methods with imprecise information could be employed to solve these problems. The aim of this paper is ...

This paper proposes an interactive consensus reaching model in the group decision making for heterogeneous hesitant preference relations (i.e., fuzzy relations, multiplicative linguistic relations). First, consistencies of three are defined, respectively. Then, based on their definitions, optimization models constructed to obtain weight vector alternatives, which adjustment algorithm is establi...

This paper investigates a consensus model for hesitant fuzzy preference relations (HFPRs). First, we present a revised definition of HFPRs, in which the values are not ordered for the hesitant fuzzy element. Second, we propose an additive consistency based estimation measure to normalize the HFPRs, based on which, a consensus model is developed. Here, two feedback mechanisms are proposed, namel...

In this paper, we investigate the multiple attribute decision making (MADM) problem based on the arithmetic and geometric aggregation operators with hesitant fuzzy linguistic information. Then, motivated by the idea of traditional arithmetic operation, we have developed some aggregation operators for aggregating hesitant fuzzy linguistic information: hesitant fuzzy linguistic weighted average (...
