Optimizing sustainability: information aggregation in smart factories for energy efficiency enhancement by Mohd Anjum, Naoufel Kraiem, Hong Min, Yousef Ibrahim Daradkeh, Ashit Kumar Dutta, Sana Shahab

“…To advance this framework, we develop a suite of novel aggregation operators (AOs), including the intuitionistic fuzzy softmax Dubois-Prade (IFSDP), intuitionistic fuzzy softmax interactive Dubois-Prade weighted average (IFSIDPWA), intuitionistic fuzzy softmax interactive Dubois-Prade ordered weighted average (IFSIDPOWA), and intuitionistic fuzzy softmax interactive Dubois-Prade weighted geometric (IFSIDPWG), which effectively handle uncertainty and vagueness in the criteria assessments. The method based on the removal effects of criteria (MEREC) is utilized to objectively determine the criteria weights, ensuring a robust evaluation structure. …”
