TLDR
HOHFS is the actual extension of HFS that enables us to define the membership of a given element in terms of several possible generalized type of fuzzy sets (G-Type FSs).
Abstract
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 enables us to define the membership of a given element in terms of several possible generalized type of fuzzy sets (G-Type FSs). The rationale behind HOHFS can be seen in the case that the decision makers are not satisfied by providing exact values for the membership degrees and therefore the HFS is not applicable. However, in order to indicate HOHFSs have a good performance in decision making, we first introduce some information measures for HOHFSs and then apply them to multiple attribute decision making with higher order hesitant fuzzy information.

Multi-valued Neutrosophic Sets and Power Aggregation Operators with Their Applications in Multi-criteria Group Decision-making Problems

TL;DR: Multi-valued neutrosophic sets (MVNSs) are introduced, which allow the truth-membership, indeterminacy- membership and falsity- membership degree to have a set of crisp values between zero and one, respectively.

Decision Making with Uncertainty Using Hesitant Fuzzy Sets

TL;DR: This paper proposes to extend COMET using hesitant fuzzy set (HFS) theory, a powerful tool to express the uncertainty that derives from an expert comparing characteristic objects and identifying membership functions for each criterion domain.

Multi-criteria evaluation of alternative-fuel vehicles via a hierarchical hesitant fuzzy linguistic model

TL;DR: A hierarchical hesitant fuzzy linguistic model is proposed that captures hesitant linguistic evaluations of multiple experts on multiple criteria for alternative-fuel vehicles and is applied on the alternative- fuel vehicle selection problem of a home health care service provider in the USA.
