The probabilistic linguistic term set (PLTS) is a powerful technique in representing linguistic evaluations of individuals or groups in the process of decision making. The aim of this paper is to propose a strongly robust method to solve multiexperts multicriteria decision making problems with linguistic evaluations. To enrich the computation and to improve the measures of PLTS, we first define an expectation function of it. In addition, we advance three kinds of probabilistic linguistic distance measures reflecting on the difference of linguistic terms and probabilities at the same time to make up for the defects of the existing distance measures, and then propose the similarity and correlation measures. Integrating the subjective opinions with the correlation coefficients between criteria, we put forward a combined weight determining method. The robustness of the ranking method, MULTIMOORA, is enhanced by the improved …
