Similarity measure is a very important topic in fuzzy set theory. Torra (2010) proposed the notion of hesitant fuzzy set(HFS), which is a generalization of the notion of Zadeh’ fuzzy set. In this paper, some new similarity measures for HFSs are developed. Based on the proposed similarity measures, a method of multiple attribute decision making under hesitant fuzzy environment is also introduced...

Hesitant fuzzy set (HFS), which allows the membership degree of an element to a set represented by several possible values, is considered as a powerful tool to express uncertain information in the process of multi-attribute decision making (MADM) problems. In this paper, we develop a novel approach based on TOPSIS (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) and the maximizi...

Hesitant fuzzy set is a very useful technique in the situations where there are some difficulties in determining the membership of an element to a set. Some aggregation methods have been developed for hesitant fuzzy information. Current aggregation methods are under the assumption that the criteria are at the same priority level. However, in real decision making problems, criteria have differen...

Scientific and technological papers play a fundamental role in the scientific and technological innovation of countries. The quality control of scientific and technological articles is vital to the journals and management of personnel. This paper investigates multiple attribute decision-making problems with the application of hesitant fuzzy uncertain linguistic information. Motivated by the ide...
