Diminishing Choquet Hesitant 2-Tuple Linguistic Aggregation Operator for Multiple Attributes Group Decision Making

Abstract

In this article, we develop a diminishing hesitant 2-tuple averaging operator (DH2TA) for hesitant 2-tuple linguistic arguments. DH2TA work in the way that it aggregate all hesitant 2-tuple linguistic elements and during the aggregation process it also controls the hesitation in translation of the resultant aggregated linguistic term. We develop a scalar product for hesitant 2-tuple linguistic elements and based on the scalar product a weighted diminishing hesitant 2-tuple averaging operator (DWH2TA) is introduced. Moreover, combining Choquet integral with hesitant 2-tuple linguistic information, the diminishing Chouqet hesitant 2-tuple average operator (DCH2TA) is defined. The proposed operators higher reflect the correlations among the elements. After investigating the properties of these operators, a multiple attribute decision making method based on DCH2TA operator is proposed. Finally, an example is given to illustrate the significance and usefulness of proposed method.
