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...

ABSTRACT Objective: this study proposes a hesitant fuzzy linguistic TOPSIS model for supplier segmentation based on economic, environmental, and social criteria. Proposal: the classifies suppliers in matrix considering their capabilities willingness to collaborate. It was implemented using Microsoft Excel© applied hydropower plant. Two employees of company chose set criteria, assigned weights t...

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...

Hesitant fuzzy sets are very useful to deal with group decision making problems when experts have a hesitation among several possible memberships for an element to a set. During the evaluating process in practice, however, these possible memberships may be not only crisp values in [0,1], but also interval values. In this study, we extend hesitant fuzzy sets by intuitionistic fuzzy sets and refe...

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...

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...

A hesitant fuzzy set, allowing the membership of an element to be a set of several possible values, is very useful to express people’s hesitancy in daily life. In this paper, we define the distance and correlation measures for hesitant fuzzy information and then discuss their properties in detail. These measures are all defined under the assumption that the values in all hesitant fuzzy elements...

Using the strength of a single-valued neutrosophic set (SVNS) with flexibility hesitant fuzzy (HFS) yields robust model named (SVNHFS). Due to ability utilize three independent indexes (truthness, indeterminacy, and falsity), an SVNHFS is efficient for optimization computational intelligence (CI) as well intelligent decision support system (IDSS). Taking advantage operational parameters in Domb...

The complexity and impact of many real world decision making problems lead to the necessity of considering multiple points of view, building group decision making problems in which a group of experts provide their preferences to achieve a solution. In such complex problems uncertainty is often present and although the use of linguistic information has provided successful results in managing it,...
