Hesitancy is the most common problem in decision making, for which hesitant fuzzy set can be considered as a useful tool allowing several possible degrees of membership of an element to a set. Recently, another suitable means were defined by Zhiming Zhang [1], called interval valued intuitionistic hesitant fuzzy sets, dealing with uncertainty and vagueness, and which is more powerful than the h...

Abstract.With respect to interval-valued hesitant fuzzy multi-attribute decision making, this study first presents a new ranking method for interval-valued hesitant fuzzy elements. In order to obtain the comprehensive values of alternatives, two induced generalized interval-valued hesitant fuzzy hybrid operators based on the Shapley function are defined, which globally consider the importance o...

In this article we present three similarity measures between simplified neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy sets, which contain the concept of single valued neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy sets and interval valued neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy sets, based on the extension of Jaccard similarity measure, Dice similarity measure and Cosine similarity in the vector space. Then based on these three defined simila...

Abstract: The Bonferroni mean (BM) can be used in situations where the aggregated arguments are correlated. BM is very useful for solving decision-making problems. For describing fuzziness and vagueness more accurately, the interval-valued hesitant fuzzy set (IVHFS), which is a generalization of the hesitant fuzzy set (HFS), can be used to describe the membership degrees with interval numbers. ...

As a combination of the hesitant fuzzy set (HFS) and the single valued neutrosophic set (SVNS), the single valued neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy set (SVNHFS) is an important concept to handle uncertain and vague information existing in real-life, which consists of three membership functions including hesitancy, as the truth-hesitancy membership function, the indeterminacy-hesitancy membership func...

In this paper, a new soft computing group decision method based on the concept of compromise ratio is introduced for determining decision makers (DMs)' weights through the group decision process under uncertainty. In this method, preferences and judgments of the DMs or experts are expressed by linguistic terms for rating the industrial alternatives among selected criteria as well as the relativ...

In recent decades, several types of sets, such as fuzzy sets, interval-valued fuzzy sets, intuitionistic fuzzy sets, interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets, type 2 fuzzy sets, type n fuzzy sets, and hesitant fuzzy sets, have been introduced and investigated widely. In this paper, we propose dual hesitant fuzzy sets DHFSs , which encompass fuzzy sets, intuitionistic fuzzy sets, hesitant fuzzy...

‎Selecting the most suitable robot among their wide range of specifications and capabilities is an important issue to perform the hazardous and repetitive jobs‎. ‎Companies should take into consideration powerful group decision-making (GDM) methods to evaluate the candidates or potential robots versus the selected attributes (criteria)‎. ‎In this study‎, ‎a new GDM method is proposed by utilizi...
