In this paper we consider some properties of intuitionistic fuzzy preference relations. We pay attention to preservation of intuitionistic fuzzy preference relations by aggregation operations. In particular, we know, that a special kind of aggregation operations (lattice operations) do not preserve intuitionistic fuzzy preference relations. We describe the operations which preserve intuitionist...

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...

Decision making is an important issue in business and project management that assists finding the optimal alternative from a number of feasible alternatives. Decision making requires adequate consideration of uncertainty in projects. In this paper, in order to address uncertainty of project environments, interval type-2 fuzzy sets (IT2FSs) are used. In other words, the rating of each alternativ...

In decision-making problems, decision-makers using fuzzy preference relations express their opinions. The values of fuzzy preference relations have been crisp in recent seminar papers. To allow decision makers to give vague or imprecise responses when they are in the process of comparing two alternatives, this paper proposes a new method using fuzzy linguistic assessment variables instead of cr...

The competition among shopping malls is getting increasingly more intense.In order to enhance corporate competitiveness and profitability, how toretain key loyal customers has become an important issue for the managers ofshopping malls. Customer loyalty programs are a universal practice. Thisstudy proposes an analytical model for developing the strategic management...

In multiperson decision making situations, it is quite natural that different decision makers who may have different background and knowledge will provide their preferences by different kinds of preference relations. This paper proposes a linguistic multiperson decision making model (LMDMM) based on linguistic preference relations, integrating fuzzy preference relations, different types of mult...

Preference analysis is an important task in multi-criteria decision making. The rough set theory has been successfully extended to deal with preference analysis by replacing equivalence relations with dominance relations. The existing studies involving preference relations cannot capture the uncertainty presented in numerical and fuzzy criteria. In this paper, we introduce a method to extract f...

In decision making, in order to avoid misleading solutions, the study of consistency when the decision makers express their opinions by means of preference relations becomes a very important aspect in order to avoid misleading solutions. In decision making problems based on fuzzy preference relations the study of consistency is associated with the study of the transitivity property. In this pap...
