Novel Approach to Multi-Criteria Decision-Making Based on the n,mPR-Fuzzy Weighted Power Average Operator

Abstract

A significant addition to fuzzy set theory for expressing uncertain data is an n,m-th power root fuzzy set. Compared to the nth power root, Fermatean, Pythagorean, and intuitionistic fuzzy sets, n,m-th power root fuzzy sets can cover more uncertain situations due to their greater range of displayed membership grades. When discussing the symmetry between two or more objects, the innovative concept of an n,m-th power root fuzzy set over dual universes is more flexible than the current notion of an intuitionistic fuzzy set, a Pythagorean fuzzy set, and a nth power root fuzzy set. In this study, we demonstrate a number of additional operations on n,m-th power root fuzzy sets along with a number of their special aspects. Additionally, to deal with choice information, we create a novel weighted aggregated operator called the n,m-th power root fuzzy weighted power average (FWPAmn) across n,m-th power root fuzzy sets and demonstrate some of its fundamental features. To rank n,m-th power root fuzzy sets, we also define the score and accuracy functions. Moreover, we use this operator to identify the countries with the best standards of living and show how we can select the best option by contrasting aggregate results using score values. Finally, we contrast the results of the FWPAmn operator with the square-root fuzzy weighted power average (SR-FWPA), the nth power root fuzzy weighted power average (nPR-FWPA), the Fermatean fuzzy weighted power average (FFWPA), and the n,m-rung orthopair fuzzy weighted power average (n,m-ROFWPA) operators.
