A novel method of ranking hesitant fuzzy values for multiple attribute decision‐making problems

B Farhadinia - International Journal of Intelligent Systems, 2013 - Wiley Online Library
Despite of several generalizations of fuzzy set theory, the notion of hesitant fuzzy set (HFS),
which permits the membership having a set of possible values, is interesting and very useful …

Distance and similarity measures for higher order hesitant fuzzy sets

B Farhadinia - Knowledge-Based Systems, 2014 - Elsevier
In this study, we extend the hesitant fuzzy set (HFS) to its higher order type and refer to it as
the higher order hesitant fuzzy set (HOHFS). HOHFS is the actual extension of HFS that …

C Zhang, D Li, J Liang - Information Sciences, 2020 - Elsevier
The notion of hesitant fuzzy linguistic term sets (HFLTSs), which enables experts to utilize a
few possible linguistic terms to evaluate varieties of common qualitative information, plays a …

Multi-criteria decision-making method based on dominance degree and BWM with probabilistic hesitant fuzzy information

J Li, J Wang, J Hu - International Journal of Machine Learning and …, 2019 - Springer
