Dual hesitant fuzzy group decision making method and its application to supplier selection

摘要

The concept of dual hesitant fuzzy set arising from hesitant fuzzy set is generalized by including a function reflecting the decision maker's fuzziness about the non-membership degree of the information provided. This paper studies some dual hesitant fuzzy information aggregation operators for aggregating dual hesitant fuzzy elements, such as dual hesitant fuzzy Heronian mean operator and dual hesitant fuzzy geometric Heronian mean operator. The research resulting dual hesitant fuzzy information aggregation operators finds an important role in group decision making (GDM) applications. It can fusion the experts' opinion to the comprehensive ones and based on which an optimal decision making scheme can be determined. The properties of the proposed operators are studied and the application on GDM are investigated. The effectiveness of the GDM method is demonstrated on the case study about supplier selection.
