Novel Pythagorean fuzzy score function to optimize fuzzy transportation models by Ritu, Tarun Kumar, Jahnvi, Kapil Kumar, Nitesh Dhiman, M.K. Sharma

“…Through comprehensive numerical analysis, In Type-1 IVPFTP the cost dropped from 5.19 to 0.675, for Type-2 IVPFTP cost dropped from 0.2615 to 0.001869 and for Type-3 IVPFTP cost dropped from0.17435 to 0.0013879.Thereafter, it was observed that the proposed score function provides a more optimal transportation cost.Also, our findings demonstrate the significant cost reductions and improved decision-making capabilities across different types of IVPFTP models to highlight the efficiency of the proposed score function in handling uncertainty within the transportation problems.…”
