Abstract
The aim of this article is to investigate the approach for multi-attribute group decision-making, in which the attribute values take the form of multi-granularity multiplicative linguistic information. Firstly, to process multiple sources of decision information assessed in different multiplicative linguistic label sets, a method for transforming multi-granularity multiplicative linguistic information into multiplicative trapezoidal fuzzy numbers is proposed. Then, a formula for ranking multiplicative trapezoidal fuzzy numbers is given based on geometric mean. Furthermore, the concept of similarity degree between two multiplicative trapezoidal fuzzy numbers is defined. The attribute weights are obtained by solving some optimization models. An effective approach for group decision making with multi-granularity multiplicative linguistic information is developed based on the ordered weighted geometric mean operator and proposed formulae. Finally, a practical example is provided to illustrate the practicality and validity of the proposed method.
