Generalized ordered weighted averaging operators based methods for MADM in intuitionistic fuzzy set setting

Multiattribute decision making (MADM) problems, in which the weights and ratings of alternatives are expressed with intuitionistic fuzzy (IF) sets, are investigated. Firstly, the relative degrees of membership and the relative degrees of non-membership are formulated as IF sets, the weights and values of alternatives on both qualitative and quantitative attributes may be expressed as IF sets in a unified way. Then a MADM method based on generalized ordered weighted averaging operators is proposed. The proposed method is illustrated with a numerical example.
