Abstract

Fuzzy multi-attribute decision-making is a hot research topic in which weight information is one of the conditions for forming a complete decision-making model, and it is also an important factor affecting the decision result. In most fuzzy multi-attribute decision-making problems, the weight information is often given in the form of real numbers. However, in real life, the weight information may not be suitable for specific numerical representation, or we cannot accurately determine the weight information. Therefore, it is very important to use fuzzy numbers to represent weight information. In this paper, we study the problem of disturbing fuzzy multi-attribute decision-making in which the attribute weight, decision-maker weight, and attribute information are given in the form of disturbing fuzzy numbers. Firstly, a new disturbing fuzzy integration operator, namely the disturbing fuzzy ring and multiplication aggregation (DFRMA) operator, is proposed, and its characteristics of closure, monotonicity, and boundary are studied. Then, the general steps of the disturbing fuzzy multi-attribute decision method based on the disturbing fuzzy ring and multiplication aggregation (DFRMA) operator are given, which include the single decision step and group decision step. Finally, an example is given to illustrate the practicability and effectiveness of the method.
