Abstract  

Pythagorean fuzzy set (PFS) is an extension of traditional intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS). It can deal with decision-making problems with multi-attribute information in a wider area. In this paper, we first point out errors in the ranking criterion of Pythagorean fuzzy number (PFN) proposed in a paper, and analyze the reasons that cause these errors through the derivation of reliable information (accuracy function). Then, we propose a new score function through the curved trapezoidal area (CTA) corresponding to the reliable information, which provides a ranking criterion of PFN.The basic properties of the score function are discussed. Finally, we show an example indicating the effectiveness and advantage of the new ranking method.

基于曲边梯形面积刻画毕达哥拉斯模糊数的排序方法

毕达哥拉斯模糊集(Pythagorean fuzzy set,PFS)是传统直觉模糊集(intuitionistic fuzzy set,IFS)的扩展,能在更广泛区域处理多属性信息决策问题。首先,针对某文献毕达哥拉斯模糊数(Pythagorean fuzzy number,PFN)排序方法存在的错误,分析了其产生原因。其次,在毕达哥拉斯模糊环境下,基于可靠信息量所对应的曲边梯形面积(curved trapezoidal area,CTA)提出了新的得分函数公式,进而给出了PFN的排序准则,并讨论了该得分函数的基本性质。最后, 用实例说明给出的排序方法克服了其他方法的某些缺陷,具有一定优势。
