Abstract
In this paper, we put forward a ratio-based compatibility degree between any two ]0,1[-valued interval numbers to measure how proximate they approach to each other. A compatibility measurement is presented to evaluate the compatibility degree between a pair of ]0,1[-valued interval fuzzy preference relations (IFPRs). By employing the geometric mean, a measurement formula is proposed to calculate how close one interval fuzzy preference relation is to all the other interval fuzzy preference relations in a group. We devise an induced interval fuzzy ordered weighted geometric (IIFOWG) operator to aggregate ]0,1[-valued interval numbers, and apply the induced interval fuzzy ordered weighted geometric operator to fuse interval fuzzy preference relations into a collective one. Based on the compatibility measurement between two interval fuzzy preference relations, a notion of acceptable consensus of interval fuzzy preference relations is introduced to check the consensus level between an individual interval fuzzy preference relation and a collective interval fuzzy preference relation, and a novel procedure is developed to handle group decision-making problems with interval fuzzy preference relations. A numerical example with respect to the evaluation of e-commerce websites is provided to illustrate the proposed procedure.
