In this paper, a hesitant fuzzy multiple attribute group decision making problem where there exists prioritization relationships over the attributes and decision makers is studied. First, some Einstein operations on hesitant fuzzy elements and their properties are presented. Then, several generalized hesitant fuzzy prioritized Einstein aggregation operators, including the generalized hesitant f...

In this paper, we defined some aggregation operators to aggregate generalized hesitant fuzzy elements and the relationship between our proposed operators and the existing ones are discussed in detail. Furthermore, the procedure of multicriteria decision making based on the proposed operators is given under generalized hesitant fuzzy environment. Finally, a practical example is provided to illus...

In this article we define some aggregation operators for bipolar-valued hesitant fuzzy sets. These operations include bipolar-valued hesitant fuzzy ordered weighted averaging (BPVHFOWA) operator, bipolar-valued hesitant fuzzy ordered weighted geometric (BPVHFOWG) operator and their generalized forms. We also define hybrid aggregation operators and their generalized forms and solved a decision-m...

The multiplicative hesitant fuzzy information proposed by Xia (2012) uses the non-uniform scale to express the preference of the decision makers which has a broad application background. The key difference between multiplicative hesitant fuzzy information and hesitant fuzzy information is the former uses unsymmetrical scale in expressing the preferences about two alternatives but the latter use...

In this paper, the dual hesitant fuzzy rough set (DHFRS) is studied from the viewpoint of assessment deviations. Firstly, according to the relationship between intuitionistic fuzzy set and vague set, the DHFRS is transferred into a fuzzy set, where the membership of any given element to it has multi-grouped values. By the idea of bootstrap sampling, a group of four sets are generated to describ...

The main goal of this contribution is to introduce the concept of higher order hesitant fuzzy soft set as an extension of fuzzy soft set that encompasses most of the existing extensions of fuzzy soft set as special cases. Furthermore, this new concept provides us with a method for dealing with multicriteria fuzzy decision making problems which are difficult to explain in other existing extensio...

Utilizing renewable energies is one of the most important issues for economical and social significance in future human life. Choosing the best renewable energy among all other candidates is very important in this area. 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 to prop...

In this paper, we define the concept of incomplete hesitant fuzzy preference relations to deal with the cases where the decision makers express their judgments by using hesitant fuzzy preference relations with incomplete information, and investigate the consistency of the incomplete hesitant fuzzypreference relations and obtain the reliable priority weights. We first establish a goal programmin...
