Abstract:

As an special intuitionistic fuzzy set defined on the real number set, triangular intuitionistic fuzzy number (TIFN) is a fundamental tool for quantifying an ill-known quantity. In order to model the decision maker's overall preference with mandatory requirements, it is necessary to develop some Bonferroni harmonic mean operators for TIFNs which can be used to effectively intergrate the information of attribute values for multi-attribute group decision making (MAGDM) with TIFNs. The purpose of this paper is to develop some Bonferroni harmonic operators of TIFNs and apply to the MAGDM problems with TIFNs. The weighted possibility means of TIFN are firstly defined. Hereby, a new lexicographic approach is presented to rank TIFNs sufficiently considering the risk preference of decision maker. The sensitivity analysis on the risk preference parameter is made. Then, three kinds of triangular intuitionistic fuzzy Bonferroni harmonic aggregation operators are defined, including a triangular intuitionistic fuzzy triple weighted Bonferroni harmonic mean operator (TIFTWBHM) operator, a triangular intuitionistic fuzzy triple ordered weighted Bonferroni harmonic mean (TIFTOWBHM) operator and a triangular intuitionistic fuzzy triple hybrid Bonferroni harmonic mean (TIFTHBHM) operator. Some desirable properties for these operators are discussed in detail. By using the TIFTWBHM operator, we can obtain the individual overall attribute values of alternatives, which are further integrated into the collective ones by the TIFTHBHM operator. The ranking order of alternatives is generated according to the collective overall attribute values of alternatives. A real investment selection case study verifies the validity and applicability of the proposed method.

Multi-Attribute Decision-Making Based on Bonferroni Mean Operators under Cubic Intuitionistic Fuzzy Set Environment

Cubic intuitionistic fuzzy (CIF) set is the hybrid set which can contain much more information to express an interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy set and an intuitionistic fuzzy set simultaneously for handling the uncertainties in the data. Unfortunately, there has been no research on the aggregation operators on CIF sets so far. Since an aggregation operator is an important mathematical tool i...

Generalized Bonferroni Harmonic Mean Operators and Their Application to Multiple Attribute Decision Making ⋆

The Bonferroni mean is an important aggregation technique which can reflect the correlations of the aggregation arguments. The classical Bonferroni mean is an extension of the arithmetic mean, and is generalized by some researchers based on the idea of the geometric mean. In this paper, based on the Bonferroni mean and the harmonic mean, we introduce some new aggregating operators: the fuzzy Bo...

Arithmetic Aggregation Operators for Interval-valued Intuitionistic Linguistic Variables and Application to Multi-attribute Group Decision Making

The intuitionistic linguistic set (ILS) is an extension of linguisitc variable. To overcome the drawback of using single real number to represent membership degree and non-membership degree for ILS, the concept of interval-valued intuitionistic linguistic set (IVILS) is introduced through representing the membership degree and non-membership degree with intervals for ILS in this paper. The oper...
