Abstract

In many real-life problems, decision-making is reckoned as a powerful tool to manipulate the data involving imprecise and vague information. To fix the mathematical problems containing more generalized datasets, an emerging model called q -rung orthopair fuzzy soft sets offers a comprehensive framework for a number of multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) situations but this model is not capable to deal effectively with situations having bipolar soft data. In this research study, a novel hybrid model under the name of q -rung orthopair fuzzy bipolar soft set ( q -ROFBSS, henceforth), an efficient bipolar soft generalization of q -rung orthopair fuzzy set model, is introduced and illustrated by an example. The proposed model is successfully tested for several significant operations like subset, complement, extended union and intersection, restricted union and intersection, the ‘AND’ operation and the ‘OR’ operation. The De Morgan’s laws are also verified for q -ROFBSSs regarding above-mentioned operations. Ultimately, two applications are investigated by using the proposed framework. In first real-life application, the selection of land for cropping the carrots and the lettuces is studied, while in second practical application, the selection of an eligible student for a scholarship is discussed. At last, a comparison of the initiated model with certain existing models, including Pythagorean and Fermatean fuzzy bipolar soft set models is provided.
