Abstract
With respect to multiple criteria group decision-making (MCGDM) problems in which both the criteria weights and the expert weights take the form of crisp numbers and attribute values take the form of interval-valued picture fuzzy uncertain linguistic numbers, some new group decision-making analysis methods are developed. Firstly, some operational laws, expected value, and accuracy function of interval-valued picture fuzzy uncertain linguistic numbers are introduced. Then, an interval-valued picture fuzzy uncertain linguistic averaging and geometric aggregation operators are developed. Furthermore, some desirable properties of the developed operators, such as commutativity, idempotency, and monotonicity, have been studied. Based on these operators, an approach to multiple criteria group decision-making with interval-valued picture fuzzy uncertain linguistic information has been proposed. Finally, a practical example of 3PL supplier selection in logistics service value concretion is taken to test the defined method and to expose the effectiveness of the defined model.
