This paper considers the situation with intuitionistic fuzzy information and develops an intuistic fuzzy ordered weighted distance (IFOWD) operator, which is very suitable to deal with the situations where the input data are represented in intuitionism fuzzy information.
Abstract
The ordered weighted distance [27], [49] is a new decision-making technique, having been proved useful for the treatment of input data in the form of exact numbers. In this paper, we consider the situation with intuitionistic fuzzy information and develop an intuitionistic fuzzy ordered weighted distance (IFOWD) operator. The IFOWD operator is very suitable to deal with the situations where the input data are represented in intuitionistic fuzzy information and includes a wide range of distance measures and aggregation operators. We study some of its main properties and different families of IFOWD operators. Finally, we develop an application of the new approach in a group decision-making under intuitionistic fuzzy environment and illustrate it with a numerical example.
