In this study, TOPSIS method combined with intuitionistic fuzzy set is proposed to select appropriate supplier in group decision making environment and Intuitionistic fuzzy weighted averaging (IFWA) operator is utilized to aggregate individual opinions of decision makers for rating the importance of criteria and alternatives.
Abstract
Supplier selection, the process of finding the right suppliers who are able to provide the buyer with the right quality products and/or services at the right price, at the right time and in the right quantities, is one of the most critical activities for establishing an effective supply chain. On the other hand, it is a hard problem since supplier selection is typically a multi criteria group decision-making problem involving several conflicting criteria on which decision maker's knowledge is usually vague and imprecise. In this study, TOPSIS method combined with intuitionistic fuzzy set is proposed to select appropriate supplier in group decision making environment. Intuitionistic fuzzy weighted averaging (IFWA) operator is utilized to aggregate individual opinions of decision makers for rating the importance of criteria and alternatives. Finally, a numerical example for supplier selection is given to illustrate application of intuitionistic fuzzy TOPSIS method.

A multicriteria intuitionistic fuzzy group decision making for plant location selection with ELECTRE method

TL;DR: In this paper, the elimination and choice translating reality (ELECTRE) method is proposed with intuitionistic fuzzy sets for selection of appropriate plant location in group decision-making environment to tackle uncertainty of the information provided by decision makers.

A new design of the elimination and choice translating reality method for multi-criteria group decision-making in an intuitionistic fuzzy environment

TL;DR: A new extension of the ELECTRE, known as the elimination and choice translating reality method, for multi-criteria group decision-making problems based on intuitionistic fuzzy sets is designed and a new discordance intuitionistic index is introduced, which is extended from the concept of the fuzzy distance measure.

Intuitionistic Fuzzy Aggregation Operators

TL;DR: Based on score function and accuracy function, a method is introduced for the comparison between two intuitionistic fuzzy values and some aggregation operators are developed, such as the intuitionism fuzzy weighted averaging operator, intuitionists fuzzy ordered weighted averaging operators, and intuitionistic fuzziness hybrid aggregation operator, for aggregating intuitionist fuzzy values.
