Pythagorean hesitant fuzzy Choquet integral aggregation operators and their application to multi-attribute decision-making

Abstract

Pythagorean hesitant fuzzy sets play a vital role in decision-making as it permits a set of possible elements in membership and non-membership degrees and satisfy the condition that the square sum of its memberships degree is less than or equal to 1. While aggregation operators are used to aggregate the overall preferences of the attributes, under Pythagorean hesitant fuzzy environment and fuzzy measure in the paper we develop Pythagorean hesitant fuzzy Choquet integral averaging operator, Pythagorean hesitant fuzzy Choquet integral geometric operator, generalized Pythagorean hesitant fuzzy Choquet integral averaging operator and generalized Pythagorean hesitant fuzzy Choquet integral geometric operator. We also discuss some properties such as idempotency, monotonicity and boundedness of the developed operators. Moreover, we apply the developed operators to multi-attribute decision-making problem to show the validity and effectiveness of the developed operators. Finally, a comparison analysis is given.
