An advanced dice similarity measure of generalized fuzzy numbers and its application in multicriteria decision making

الملخص EN

Multicriteria decision making (MCDM) is an important process to select best alternative among a set of alternatives based on preassigned multiple criteria.

Presence of uncertainty due to lack of information/data, imprecision, vagueness etc.

classical MCDM process becomes more complex and inappropriate.

To overcome such types of situations, different types of fuzzy sets are explored and consequently fuzzy multicriteria decision making (FMCDM) was developed.

In FMCDM problems, similarity measure of generalized fuzzy numbers plays crucial role in making appropriate decision by choosing best alternative.

A handful number of work done on similarity measures are confronted in literature.

Even though some advantages of these existing works are encountered, most of the works have impediments.

In this regard, an attempt has been made to devise a similarity measure (SM) of GFNs with same or unequal height.

It is observed that the proposed SM has the capability to overcome the deficiencies of the available earlier approaches and outplays in all the environments.

To showcase the novelty and efficiency of the present SM comparative studies have been performed.

Moreover, FMCDM problem has been solved under this setting and found that results obtained by this approach confronts human intuitions and analytical output.
