In this paper, an improved interval-valued hesitant fuzzy weighted geometric (IIVHFWG) operator for multi-criterion decision-making is proposed. This operator is free of the limitations of the existing interval-valued hesitant fuzzy weighted average operator, interval-valued hesitant fuzzy weighted geometric operator, generalized interval-valued hesitant fuzzy weighted geometric operator, interval-valued hesitant fuzzy Hammer weighted average operator, and interval-valued hesitant fuzzy Hammer weighted geometric operator, which are prone to being influenced by extreme values. Based on the proposed IIVHFWG operator, a new method to solve the multi-criterion decisionmaking problems with interval-valued hesitant fuzzy elements is presented. Several numerical examples together with comparisons are introduced to demonstrate the effectiveness and advantages of this method.
