Abstract
A noticeable progress has been found in decision making problems since the introduction of soft set theory by Molodtsov in 1999. It is found that classical soft sets are not suitable to deal with imprecise parameters whereas fuzzy soft sets (FSS) are proved to be useful. Use of intuitionistic fuzzy soft sets (IFSS) is more effective in environment, where arguments are presented using membership and non-membership values. In this paper we propose an algorithmic approach for multiple attribute group decision making problems using interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy soft matrix (IVIFSM). IVIFSM is the matrix representation of interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy soft set (IVIFSS), where IVIFSS is a natural combination of interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy set and soft set theory. Firstly, we propose the concept of IVIFSM. Then an algorithm is developed to find out the desired alternative(s) based on product interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy soft matrix, combined choice matrix, and score values of the set of alternatives. Finally, a practical example has been demonstrated to show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
