Abstract

Large-scale group decision-making (LS-GDM) problems are common in the daily life of human beings. Both information fusion and computing with words (CWW) technologies in LS-GDM suffer from challenges. In the current research, a proportional hesitant fuzzy linguistic term set (PHFLTS) will be applied to capture the preferences of sub-groups in LS-GDM, which decreases the information lost in information fusion processes. Novel fuzzy semantic representation models of PHFLTS, such as type-1 fuzzy envelope and interval type-2 fuzzy envelope, are respectively studied. The application of the proposed fuzzy entropies facilitates the CWW process with the PHFLTS under the framework of a fuzzy linguistic approach. In particular, linguistic uncertainties contained in the PHFLTS can be reflected in a comprehensive way when the type-2 fuzzy envelope is applied, which contributes to the decrease in the information lost during the CWW process. A novel LS-GDM method cooperating with the fuzzy semantic models of PHFLTS is proposed, in which weights for the sub-groups are determined by size, cohesion, and degree of reliability among the sub-groups. Finally, the proposed decision method as well as CWW tools are applied to the process of urban renewal plan selection.
