A strategy for hepatitis diagnosis by using spherical $ q $-linear Diophantine fuzzy Dombi aggregation information and the VIKOR method

Abstract

<abstract><p>Hepatitis is an infectious disease typified by inflammation in internal organ tissues, and it is caused by infection or inflammation of the liver. Hepatitis is often feared as a fatal illness, especially in developing countries, mostly due to contaminated water, poor sanitation, and risky blood transfusion practices. Although viruses are typically blamed, other potential causes of this kind of liver infection include autoimmune disorders, toxins, medicines, opioids, and alcohol. Viral hepatitis may be diagnosed using a variety of methods, including a physical exam, liver surgery (biopsy), imaging investigations like an ultrasound or CT scan, blood tests, a viral serology panel, a DNA test, and viral antibody testing. Our study proposes a new decision-support system for hepatitis diagnosis based on spherical q-linear Diophantine fuzzy sets (Sq-LDFS). Sq-LDFS form the generalized structure of all existing notions of fuzzy sets. Furthermore, a list of novel Einstein aggregation operators is developed under Sq-LDF information. Also, an improved VIKOR method is presented to address the uncertainty in analyzing the viral hepatitis categories demonstration. Interesting and useful properties of the proposed operators are given. The core of this research is the proposed algorithm based on the proposed Einstein aggregation operators and improved VIKOR approach to address uncertain information in decision support problems. Finally, a hepatitis diagnosis case study is examined to show how the suggested approach works in practice. Additionally, a comparison is provided to demonstrate the superiority and efficacy of the suggested decision technique.</p></abstract>
