Abstract

Aiming at the mixed multiattribute group decision-making problem of interval Pythagorean fuzzy numbers, a weighted average (WA) operator model based on interval Pythagorean fuzzy sets is constructed. Furthermore, a decision-making method based on the technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) method with interval Pythagorean fuzzy numbers is proposed. First, based on the completely unknown weights of decision-makers and attributes, interval Pythagorean fuzzy numbers are applied to TOPSIS group decision-making. Second, the interval Pythagorean fuzzy number WA operator is used to synthesize the evaluation matrices of multiple decision-makers into a comprehensive evaluation matrix, and the relative closeness of each scheme is calculated based on the TOPSIS decision-making method. Finally, an example is given to illustrate the rationality and effectiveness of the proposed method.

Highlights

  • In a real decision-making process, the information obtained by decision-makers is often fuzzy and uncertain. erefore, decision-making research based on fuzzy information is essential

  • E technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) decision-making method is a widely used multiattribute decision-making method, and it is one the most frequently used techniques to deal with multicriteria group decision-making (MCGDM) conflicts

  • A TOPSIS mixed multiattribute decision-making method based on interval Pythagorean fuzzy numbers is proposed

Summary

Introduction

In a real decision-making process, the information obtained by decision-makers is often fuzzy and uncertain. erefore, decision-making research based on fuzzy information is essential. Erefore, decision-making research based on fuzzy information is essential. Zadeh [1] first proposed the concept of a fuzzy set in 1965. In 2013, Yager [3] first proposed the concept of a Pythagorean fuzzy number based on intuitionistic fuzzy sets. Experts and scholars began to apply Pythagorean fuzzy numbers to various decisions. Garg [7], Liu Weifeng [8], and Li Peng [9, 10] applied Pythagorean fuzzy numbers to geometric clustering operators, ordered weighting operators, generalized WOWA operators, and other operators
