Novel Complex Intuitionistic Hesitant Fuzzy Distance Measures for Solving Decision-Support Problems

The key objective of this article is to introduce the innovative idea of a complex intuitionistic hesitant fuzzy set (CIHFS), which blends the intuitionistic hesitant fuzzy set with the complex fuzzy set to address the uncertain information in real-life complex problems. In CIHFS, the range of the m...

description The key objective of this article is to introduce the innovative idea of a complex intuitionistic hesitant fuzzy set (CIHFS), which blends the intuitionistic hesitant fuzzy set with the complex fuzzy set to address the uncertain information in real-life complex problems. In CIHFS, the range of the membership functions is extended from the subset of the real number to the unit disc under the hesitant environment. To determine how well the CIHFSs can be distinguished from one another, we first propose generalized distance measures and weighted generalized distance measures based on the Hamming, Euclidean, and Hausdorff metrics. Some interesting properties and their relationships are thoroughly discussed. Furthermore, a decision-making framework for selecting the optimal option from the feasible set has been proposed, which is grounded in these distance metrics. For the purpose of proving the method’s efficacy, we included examples from pattern recognition and medical diagnostics.
