The task of an information retrieval system (IRS) is to retrieve relevant information from large datasets efficiently. However, selecting the best algorithm for an IRS is a complex decision support system (DSS) problem. The cubic m-polar fuzzy set (CmPFS) model is proposed to address the multi-polarity issue during algorithm selection and to express multi-polar information under m-fuzzy intervals. In this study, we introduce the Schweizer-Sklar (SS) aggregation operator based on CmPFS and develop various new aggregation operators using CmPFS and SS t-norm and t-conorm. New operations such as addition, usual multiplication, and power of two or more Cubic m-polar fuzzy Numbers (CmPFNs) based on SS t-norm and t-conorm are also defined. We also define score and accuracy functions to determine the priorities of alternatives. Four operators are proposed as follows: Cubic m-polar fuzzy Schweizer-Sklar weighted average (CmPFSSWA), Cubic m-polar fuzzy Schweizer-Sklar ordered weighted average (CmPOWA), Cubic m-polar fuzzy Schweizer-Sklar weighted geometric (CmPFSSWG), and Cubic m-polar fuzzy Schweizer-Sklar ordered weighted geometric (CmPFSSOWG). The desired qualities of these operators are explored and used to solve the DSS problem based on CmPFS. Finally, a practical application of an IRS is presented to demonstrate the effectiveness and reliability of the proposed operators.
