Utilizing New Temporal Complex Neutrosophic Aczel-Alsina Aggregation Operators for Multi-Criteria Decision Making: An Application to Tourist Destination Selection.

The Temporal Complex Neutrosophic Set (TCNS) is a powerful extension of the Neutrosophic theory, and TCNS has added advantage to represents uncertain, indeterminate, inconsistent and time related factors. In the literature TCNS has been used for multi-criteria decision-making problems, especially in the time-aware systems. In order to tackle effectively decision-making problems in the TCNS environment effectively, it is crucial to make suite aggregation operators that enable decision makers to process preferences in a nuanced manner. In this paper, we introduce novel TCNS aggregation operators based on Aczel and Alsina t-norm and t-conorm using Aczel-Alsina operations, and we propose a multi-criteria decision-making model that utilizes those operators for TCNS-based multi criteria decision making problems (MCDMs). Theorytically, the soundness and completeness of new aggregation operators are proved, and to demonstrate the practicality and effectiveness of our model a real world case study for tourist destination selection in Vietnam is completed along with analysis. The result proved the application potential of the proposal to solve the time-related MCDMs in practical, such as creating a MCDM model for tourist destination selection. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
