Interval-valued hesitant fuzzy sets (IVHFS), as a kind of decision information presenting tool which is more complicated and scientific elastic, have an important practical value in multiattribute decision-making. There little research on the uncertainty IVHFS. The existing measure cannot distinguish different IVHFS some contexts. In my opinion, for IVHFS, there should exist two types uncertain...

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...

The hesitant fuzzy graph (HFG) is one of the most powerful tools to find strongest influential person in a network. Many problems practical interest can be modeled and solved by using HFG algorithms. HFGs, belonging FG family, have good capabilities when faced with that cannot expressed FGs. vague-valued (VVHFG) generalization HFG. A VVHFG useful tool various parts, such as meetings, conference...

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...

Information technology (IT) outsourcing has been recognized as a new methodology in many organizations. Yet making an appropriate decision with regard to selection and use of these methodologies may impose uncertainties and risks. Estimating the occurrence probability of risks and their impacts organizations goals may reduce their threats. In this study, an extended analytical hierarchical proc...

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, 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...
