Pythagorean fuzzy uncertain linguistic TODIM method and their application to multiple criteria group decision making

摘要

In this paper, with respect to multiple criteria group decision making (MCGDM) problems in which criteria values are expressed by Pythagorean fuzzy uncertain linguistic variables (PFULVs), we propose an extended TODIM method. Firstly, we define the Pythagorean fuzzy uncertain linguistic set, and propose the operational laws, Hamming distance, score function and accuracy function of PFULVs. Then an extended TODIM method is presented to solve the MCGDM problems under the Pythagorean fuzzy uncertain linguistic environment, and a numerical example with the Pythagorean fuzzy uncertain linguistic information is given to show the effectiveness of the proposed method. Further, we analyze the influence of the different parameter on the MCGDM, and test the practicality of the proposed method.
