Abstract

Hesitant fuzzy set is an extension of the traditional fuzzy set, and it has the membership function which was expressed by several possible numbers. Since it was introduced, it has been received wide attention from scholars due to its powerful ability in describing the uncertainty. In this paper, we first introduce some new operations on hesitant fuzzy elements (HFEs) based on Dombi t-conorm and t-norm and then proposed some new aggregation operators for HFEs, such as hesitant fuzzy Dombi weighted averaging, hesitant fuzzy Dombi ordered weighted averaging, hesitant fuzzy Dombi weighted geometric, hesitant fuzzy Dombi ordered weighted geometric, hesitant fuzzy Dombi hybrid averaging and hesitant fuzzy Dombi hybrid geometric operator. Finally, a multiple attribute group decision-making approach under hesitant fuzzy environment is presented based on these proposed operators. A real example about typhoon disaster assessment is presented to show the advantages of the proposed method.
