Generalized Cubic Pythagorean Fuzzy Aggregation Operators and their Application to Multi-attribute Decision-Making Problems

Cubic Pythagorean fuzzy (CPF) set (CPFS) is a hybrid set that can hold much more information and can be used to describe both an interval-valued Pythagorean fuzzy set (IVPFS) and Pythagorean fuzzy set (PFS) at the same time to handle data uncertainties. Based on it, the present study is classified into three phases. The first phase is to modify the existing operational laws and aggregation operators (AOs) in the article presented by Abbas et al. (Journal of Intelligent & Fuzzy Systems, vol. 37, no. 1, pp. 1529-1544, (2019)). The main objective of improved operational laws is to eliminate the flows and ambiguities in existing AOs. Secondly, based on these laws, various AOs to aggregate the information are acquired along with their requisite properties and relations. Lastly, an approach for interpreting the multi-attribute decision-making (MCDM) problem based on the stated operators is given and illustrated with an example. Some of the existing models are used to perform a comprehensive comparative analysis to demonstrate their impacts.
