This paper aims to present Bipolar valued probabilistic hesitant fuzzy sets (BVPHFSs) by combining bipolar fuzzy sets and probabilistic hesitant fuzzy sets (PHFSs). PHFSs are a strong version of hesitant fuzzy sets (HFSs) in terms of evaluated as probabilistic of each element. Probabilistic hesitant fuzzy sets (PHFSs) are a set structure that argues that each alternative should be evaluated probabilistically. In this framework, the proposed cluster allows probabilistic evaluation of decision- makers' opinions as negative. Thus, this case proposes flexibility about selection of an element and aids to overcome with noise channels. Furthermore, some new aggregation operators are discussed called bipolar valued probabilistic hesitant fuzzy weighted average operator (BVPHFWA), Generalized bipolar valued probabilistic hesitant fuzzy weighted average operator (GBVPHFWA), bipolar valued probabilistic hesitant fuzzy weighted geometric operator (BVPHFWG), Generalized bipolar valued probabilistic hesitant fuzzy weighted geometric operator (GBVPHFWG), bipolar valued probabilistic hesitant fuzzy hybrid weighted arithmetic and geometric operator (BVPHFHWAG) and Generalized bipolar valued probabilistic hesitant fuzzy hybrid weighted arithmetic and geometric (GBVPHFHWAG) and some basic properties are presented. A score function is defined ranking alternatives. Moreover, two different algorithms are put forward with helping to TOPSIS method and by using aggregation operators over BVPHFSs. The validity of proposed operators are analyzed with an example and results are compared in their own. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

During the transitional phase spanning from the realm of fuzzy logic to the realm of neutrosophy, a multitude of hybrid models have emerged, each surpassing its predecessor in terms of superiority. Given the pervasive presence of indeterminacy in the world, a higher degree of precision is essential for effectively handling imprecision. Consequently, more sophisticated variants of neutrosophic sets (NSs) have been conceived. The key objective of this paper is to introduce yet another variant of NS, known as the q-rung orthopair fuzzy-valued neutrosophic set (q-ROFVNS). By leveraging the extended spatial range offered by q-ROFS, q-ROFVNS enables a more nuanced representation of indeterminacy and inconsistency. Our endeavor commences with the definitions of q-ROFVNS and q-ROFVN numbers (q-ROFVNNs). Then, we propose several types of score and accuracy functions to facilitate the comparison of q-ROFVNNs. Fundamental operations of q-ROFVNSs and some algebraic operational rules of q-ROFVNNs are also provided with their properties, substantiated by proofs and elucidated through illustrative examples. Drawing upon the operational rules of q-ROFVNNs, the q-ROFVN weighted average operator (q-ROFVNWAO) and q-ROFVN weighted geometric operator (q-ROFVNWGO) are proposed. Notably, we present the properties of these operators, including idempotency, boundedness and monotonicity. Furthermore, we emphasize the applicability and significance of the q-ROFVN operators, substantiating their utility through an algorithm and a numerical application. To further validate and evaluate the proposed model, we conduct a comparative analysis, examining its accuracy and performance in relation to existing models. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper aims to amalgamate the notion of a T-spherical fuzzy set (T-SFS) and a linear Diophantine fuzzy set (LDFS) to elaborate on the notion of the T-spherical linear Diophantine fuzzy set (T-SLDFS). The new concept is very effective and is more dominant as compared to T-SFS and LDFS. Then, we advance the basic operations of T-SLDFS and examine their properties. To effectively aggregate the T-spherical linear Diophantine fuzzy data, a T-spherical linear Diophantine fuzzy weighted averaging (T-SLDFWA) operator and a T-spherical linear Diophantine fuzzy weighted geometric (T-SLDFWG) operator are proposed. Then, the properties of these operators are also provided. Furthermore, the notions of the T-spherical linear Diophantine fuzzy-ordered weighted averaging (T-SLDFOWA) operator; T-spherical linear Diophantine fuzzy hybrid weighted averaging (T-SLDFHWA) operator; T-spherical linear Diophantine fuzzy-ordered weighted geometric (TSLDFOWG) operator; and T-spherical linear Diophantine fuzzy hybrid weighted geometric (TSLDFHWG) operator are proposed. To compare T-spherical linear Diophantine fuzzy numbers (TSLDFNs), different types of score and accuracy functions are defined. On the basis of the TSLDFWA and T-SLDFWG operators, a multiple attribute decision-making (MADM) method within the framework of T-SLDFNs is designed, and the ranking results are examined by different types of score functions. A numerical example is provided to depict the practicality and ascendancy of the proposed method. Finally, to demonstrate the excellence and accessibility of the proposed method, a comparison analysis with other methods is conducted. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper introduces a novel soft computing technique, called the complex neutrosophic soft expert relation (CNSER), to evaluate the degree of interaction between two hybrid models called complex neutrosophic soft expert sets (CNSESs). CNSESs are used to represent two-dimensional data that are imprecise, uncertain, incomplete and indeterminate. Moreover, it has a mechanism to incorporate the parameter set and the opinions of all experts in one model, thus making it highly suitable for use in decision-making problems where the time factor plays a key role in determining the final decision. The complex neutrosophic soft expert set and complex neutrosophic soft expert relation are both defined. Utilizing the properties of CNSER introduced, an empirical study is conducted on the relationship between the variability of the currency exchange rate and Malaysian exports and the time frame (phase) of the interaction between these two variables. This study is supported further by an algorithm to determine the type and the degree of this relationship. A comparison between different existing relations and CNSER to show the ascendancy of our proposed CNSER is provided. Then, the notion of the inverse, complement and composition of CNSERs along with some related theorems and properties are introduced. Finally, we define the symmetry, transitivity and reflexivity of CNSERs, as well as the equivalence relation and equivalence classes on CNSESs. Some interesting properties are also obtained.
