A Novel Approach on the Intuitionistic Fuzzy Rough Frank Aggregation Operator-Based EDAS Method for Multicriteria Group Decision-Making

Abstract

The basic ideas of rough sets and intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFSs) are precise statistical instruments that can handle vague knowledge easily. The EDAS (evaluation based on distance from average solution) approach plays an important role in decision-making issues, particularly when multicriteria group decision-making (MCGDM) issues have more competing criteria. The purpose of this paper is to introduce the intuitionistic fuzzy rough Frank EDAS (IFRF-EDAS) methodology based on IF rough averaging and geometric aggregation operators. We proposed various aggregation operators such as IF rough Frank weighted averaging (IFRFWA), IF rough Frank ordered weighted averaging (IFRFOWA), IF rough Frank hybrid averaging (IFRFHA), IF rough Frank weighted geometric (IFRFWG), IF rough Frank ordered weighted geometric (IFRFOWG), and IF rough Frank hybrid geometric (IFRFHG) on the basis of Frank t-norm and Frank t-conorm. Information is given for the basic favorable features of the analyzed operator. For the suggested operators, a new score and precision functions are described. Then, using the suggested method, the IFRF-EDAS method for MCGDM and its stepwise methodology are shown. After this, a numerical example is given for the established model, and a comparative analysis is generally articulated for the investigated models with some previous techniques, showing that the investigated models are much more efficient and useful than the previous techniques.
