Abstract

:
Using the strength of a single-valued neutrosophic set (SVNS) with the flexibility of a hesitant fuzzy set (HFS) yields a robust model named the single-valued neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy set (SVNHFS). Due to the ability to utilize three independent indexes (truthness, indeterminacy, and falsity), an SVNHFS is an efficient model for optimization and computational intelligence (CI) as well as an intelligent decision support system (IDSS). Taking advantage of the flexibility of operational parameters in Dombi’s t-norm and t-conorm operations, new aggregation operators (AOs) are proposed, which are named the SVN fuzzy Dombi weighted averaging (SVNHFDWA) operator, SVN hesitant fuzzy Dombi ordered weighted averaging (SVNHFDOWA) operator, SVN hesitant fuzzy Dombi hybrid averaging (SVNHFDHWA) operator, SVN hesitant fuzzy Dombi weighted geometric (SVNHFDWG) operator, SVN hesitant fuzzy Dombi ordered weighted geometric (SVNHFDOWG) operator as well as SVN hesitant fuzzy Dombi hybrid weighted geometric (SVNHFDHWG) operator. The efficiency of these AOs is investigated in order to determine the best option using SVN hesitant fuzzy numbers (SVNHFNs) in an IDSS. Additionally, a practical application of SVNHFDWA and SVNHFDWG is also presented to examine symmetrical analysis in the selection of wireless charging station for vehicles.

1. Introduction

The researchers have struggled for centuries to comprehend the complex relationship between precision and ambiguity. Zadeh [1] was attempting to solve the problem of dealing with uncertain and imprecise information in the framework of computational intelligence when the novel notion of a fuzzy set (FS) developed. In this framework, each object’s membership degree (MD) is composed of a single value which lies in [ 0 , 1 ] . One of its disadvantages is that it only supports MD and does not allow non-membership degree (NMD) to be expressed. Atanassov [2] invented an intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS) to circumvent the constraints imposed by FS. The MD and NMD of an IFS, both of which have values from 0 and 1, can be used to evaluate the structure of objects. A wide range of information aggregation have been developed in order to consolidate knowledge that is intuitively ambiguous. These aggregation methods have been created to make the information more reasonable and accurate.
Xu [3] was responsible for the creation of multiple kinds of aggregation operators (AOs), including IF weighted, and other operators. Xu is [3] credited with the invention of multiple types of averaging operators, including the IF weighted, ordered weighted, and hybrid averaging operators, amongst other types of averaging operators. These operators are still very useful today. An interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy set (IVIFS) was presented in [4] as a further developments of an IFS, which is defined by its interval MF and interval NMF in [ 0 , 1 ] .
The authors in [4] suggested the further aspects of an interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy set (IVIFS), which is distinguished by MD and NMD as fuzzy intervals. This was completed in an effort to further generalize IFSs. Since IFSs and IVIFSs cannot effectively describe uncertain and vague data, Smarandache [5] designed a neutrosophic set (NS) from a mathematical perspective as a technique of expressing imprecise information. The study of an SVNS [6] is more realistic due to its components in compact set [ 0 , 1 ] . An interval neutrosophic set (INS) [7] is another interesting extension of the NS model. A hesitant fuzzy set [8,9] has the ability to seek a solution to the problem of determining the extent to which an individual component belongs to a set, which is notoriously difficult to do. HFS can be seen as a suitable way of permitting multiple different degrees for an element to be added to a set, which is suitable for addressing hesitancy, which is the most prevalent difficulty that arises while making decisions. Because of the circumstance that there is just few truth-membership hesitant grades in an HFS, the challenge cannot be characterized utilizing truth-MD, indeterminacy, or falsity-MD. This is due to the hesitation of decision makers to make suitable choices. On the other hand, an SVNS enables a chance and opportunity to capture vague knowledge that arises from the real-world circumstances. It is quite preferable to handle information that is vague as well as uncertain if possible. It is very useful to describe the degree of truth-MD, indeterminacy, and falsity-MD for IDSS and CI. In order to deal with this scenario, Ye [10] was the one who gave the idea of the SVN hesitant fuzzy set.
One perspective on decision making describes it as a process of problem solving that culminates in the selection of a solution that is considered to be either the optimal or at least an acceptable and reasonable alternative among a set of feasible alternatives. MCDM, which stands for multi-criteria decision making, is a branch of operations research that focuses on the method of determining the best option for a specific set of criteria by thoroughly and rigorously analyzing all of the options that are available. This is accomplished by comparing and contrasting all of the potential choices.
On a continual basis, MCDM challenges and their associated solutions are confronted in multiple fields including the social sciences, economics, management, and medicine. Among the most complex obstacles that one faces when encountering complexities that require MCDM is scrambling to figure out how to incorporate uncertain information pieces that have been provided by a diverse range of sources in the process of arriving at a judgement or conclusions. This is one of the most significant challenges that one faces when encountering challenges that require MCDM.
Researchers utilized a variety of methods, such as rules, aggregation-specific procedures, and various extensions of FS theory, in order to obtain an outstanding aggregation. All of these methodologies are founded on various quantitative aggregation operations. The aggregation operators are remarkably beneficial tools to use when it involves the process of consolidating a variety of information into a single information. A substantial amount of study is currently being directed into comprehending the information aggregation techniques, which are an important tool in their own right. Ye [10] proposed SVNHF averaging operator and SVNHF geometric operator (SVNHFWG). In [11] SVNHF ordered weighted averging (SVNHFOWA) operator and SVNHF hybrid averaging (SVNHFHA) operator were studied. Both The Dombi t-norm and the t-conorm operations, which show how essential it is to have a high degree of flexibility with regard to the operational parameter, were hypothesized of and produced by Dombi [12]. Some operators for IFS, IVIFS, PFS, SVNS, HFS and SVNHFSs are listed in Table 1.
Hanif et al. [46] developed linear Diophontine fuzzy (LDF) graphs with a fresh take on how decisions are made in regard to medical diagnosis. Prakash et al. [47] came up with the innovative ideas of LDF-graph and examined the elements of extending the lifespan of a wireless charging network by employing a mobile robot. Mohamed et al. [48] He developed a study on the assessment of the autonomous charger for electric vehicles (EV) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEV). Tang et al. [49] proposed a symmetric implicational algorithm derived from the intuitionistic fuzzy entropy method. Wang [50] proposed a robust intuitionistic fuzzy analytic hierarchy process. Fuzzy optimization techniques have been utilized by various researchers [51,52,53,54,55,56,57,58]. Shi and Ye [59] proposed Dombi AO for aggregation of neutrosophic cubic sets.
This article provides a number of aggregation operators for the SVNHF framework. Some key features are also demonstrated, including idempotency, monotonicity, boundedness, and commutativity. In addition, a technique for handling IDSS problems is given by utilizing the SVNHFDWA operator and SVNHFDWG operator. In IDSS, an application of SVNHFDWA operator and SVNHFDWG operator is provided. A practical application of SVNHFDWA and SVNHFDWG is also presented to examine symmetrical analysis in the selection of a feasible mobile robot (mobile charger) for electric vehicles (EV) as well as hybrid electric vehicles (HEV).
In Section 2, we review NS, SVNS, HFS, SVNHFS, and their fundamental operations. In Section 3, we study some operational laws of SVNHFSs, and a series of robust AOs are developed in Section 4 that include SVNHFDWA, SVNHFDWG, SVNHFDOWA, SVNHFDOWG, SVNHFDHWA, and SVNHFDHWG. In Section 5, an illustration is established to utilize SVNHFDWA and SVNHFDWG that are helpful in IDSS that might be applied in real-world situations particularly in the selection of feasible mobile robots (mobile charger).

4. Dombi Operators for SVNHF Information

Now, we look at the Dombi SVNHF aggregation operators using SVNHF Dombi operations which are discussed in the previous section. This section introduces a number of aggregation operators, including the SVNHFDWA, SVNHFDWG, SVNHFDOWA, SVNHFDOWG, SVNHFDHA, SVNHFDHG.

4.1. SVNHFDWA Operator

Definition 10. 
Consider a collection of SVNHFNs x i ( i = 1 , 2 , , n ) ; then, the SVNHFDWA operator is defined as follows:
S V N H F D W A ( x 1 , x 2 , , x n ) = i = 1 n ( w i x i ) = w 1 x 1 w 2 x 2 w n x n
Equation (6) gives w = ( w 1 , w 2 , , w n ) T , which is a weight vector (WV) of the SVNHFNs x i ( i = 1 , 2 , , n ) , w i [ 0 , 1 ] with i = 1 n w i = 1 .
Theorem 2. 
Consider a collection of SVNHFNs x i ( i = 1 , 2 , , n ) with WVs w = ( w 1 , w 2 , , w n ) T ; then, the aggregated SVNHFN is SVNHFDWA ( x 1 , x 2 , , x n ) = i = 1 n ( w i x i ) = ϕ 1 P 1 , ϕ 2 P 2 , , ϕ n P n , φ 1 I 1 , φ 2 I 2 , , φ n I n , ψ 1 N 1 , ψ 2 N 2 , , ψ n N n   
1 1 1 + i = 1 n w i ϕ i 1 ϕ i λ 1 / λ , 1 1 + i = 1 n w i 1 φ i φ i λ 1 / λ , 1 1 + i = 1 n w i 1 ψ i ψ i λ 1 / λ
Proof. 
Equation (7) can be proved by using induction on n:
For n = 2 , as

5. An Optimization Method with Proposed Operators

5.1. Numerical Example

Wireless Charging System (WCS) with mobile robot for Electrical Vehicles: In a scenario in which enabling charging stations for an electric vehicle is a critical aspect of expediting the transformation to a higher sustainable energy system, other solutions may be deployed in addition to the charging stations. Inductive charging is one way to overcome the challenge. Everything is extensible from a technical standpoint; nevertheless, as the power transfer rates increase, the complexity and size of the electronics that regulate power must also increase. Most significantly, when the power increases, a number of new issues, such as power dissipation and thermal management, need to be taken into consideration. The higher the power utilization and the level of inefficiency, the greater the amount of heat that is lost and the greater the amount of work that must be completed to control it ( https://www.powerelectronicsnews.com/wireless-charging-technology-for-evs/ (accessed on 1 October 2022). WCS is an approach that permits the transmission of electrical power without the requirements of the use of infrastructure that is referred to as wireless charging. This is made possible by WCS. This strategy is designed to be used for the aim of offering sites that are difficult to access. An electromagnetic field, which acts as the basis of the system, is used to enable the transfer of energy. The transmission of energy from a sender to a receiver is made possible by the utilization of an electromagnetic field, which serves as the fundamental component of the system. This field also serves as a foundation of the framework.
In the present application, we utilize an intelligent decision support system (IDSS) to find a best wireless charging system and optimal charging station.
Prakash et al. [47] came up with the innovative idea of an LDF-graph and examined the elements of extending the lifespan of a wireless charging sensor network by employing a mobile robot. In addition to that, they were composed of three major aspects, as demonstrated in Figure 1.
Let us assume that A γ = { A 1 γ A 2 γ A 3 γ A 4 γ } is the set of four feasible mobile robot chargers, and we determine the ranking of these alternatives as well as the optimal mobile charger. The decision makers select three different criterion C = { C 1 , C 2 , C 3 } that are demonstrated in Table 7.
With the WV w = ( 0.40 , 0.25 , 0.35 ) T given by the decision maker.
Step 1. 
The decision matrix is expressed in Table 8 with the SVN hesitant fuzzy information.
Step 2. 
Compute the collective SVNHFN x i ( i = 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ) for the alternatives A i γ ( i = 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ) by utilizing SVNHFDWA operator: x i = SVNHFDWA ( x i 1 , x i 2 , , x i m ) = j = 1 m ( w j x i j ) = ϕ i 1 P i 1 , ϕ i 2 P i 2 , , ϕ i m P i m , φ i 1 I i 1 , φ i 2 I i 2 , , φ i m I i m , ψ i 1 N i 1 , ψ i 2 N i 2 , , ψ i m N i m
1 1 1 + j = 1 m w j ϕ i j 1 ϕ i j λ 1 / λ , 1 1 + j = 1 m w j 1 φ i j φ i j λ 1 / λ , 1 1 + j = 1 m w j 1 ψ i j ψ i j λ 1 / λ
x 1 = { 0.727 , 0.775 , 0.827 , 0.840 , 0.755 , 0.834 , 0.790 , 0.845 } , { 0.252 , 0.285 , 0.299 , 0.367 } , { 0.184 , 0.405 , 0.185 , 0.408 } x 2 = { 0.657 , 0.679 , 0.731 , 0.670 , 0.690 , 0.737 } , { 0.151 , 0.153 , 0.154 , 0.157 , 0.160 , 0.162 } , { 0.247 , 0.334 } x 3 = { 0.780 , 0.796 } , { 0.381 } , { 0.201 , 0.238 , 0.293 , 0.220 , 0.276 , 0.389 } x 4 = { 0.969 , 0.969 } , { 0.153 , 0.144 , 0.133 , 0.144 , 0.207 , 0.208 , 0.265 , 0.268 , 0.224 , 0.309 , 0.226 , 0.313 } , { 0.268 }
Step 3. 
Calculate the score function of x i ( i = 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ) by using Equation (1); then, we obtain
S ( x 1 ) = 0.73
S ( x 2 ) = 0.75
S ( x 3 ) = 0.71
S ( x 4 ) = 0.89
Step 4. 
Rank the alternatives according to score function,
x 4 x 2 x 1 x 3
Step 5. 
Ranking of alternatives shows that x 4 is the best alternative among four alternatives.
If we solve the problem of making decisions based on numerous attributes by employing the SVNHFDWG operator, the process of creating decisions may be outlined in the following way:
Step 2. 
Compute the collective SVNHFN x i ( i = 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ) for the alternatives A i γ ( i = 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ) by utilizing the SVNHFDWG operator:
x i = SVNHFDWG ( x i 1 , x i 2 , , x i m ) = j = 1 m x i j w j = ϕ i 1 P i 1 , ϕ i 2 P i 2 , , ϕ i m P i m , φ i 1 I i 1 , φ i 2 I i 2 , , φ i m I i m , ψ i 1 N i 1 , ψ i 2 N i 2 , , ψ i m N i m
1 1 1 + j = 1 m w j 1 ϕ i j ϕ i j λ 1 / λ , 1 1 + j = 1 m w j φ i j 1 φ i j λ 1 / λ , 1 1 + j = 1 m w j ψ i j 1 ψ i j λ 1 / λ
x 1 = { 0.662 , 0.694 , 0.667 , 0.700 , 0.726 , 0.733 , 0.782 , 0.795 } , { 0.344 , 0.366 , 0.369 , 0.387 } , { 0.397 , 0.405 , 0.458 , 0.473 } x 2 = { 0.507 , 0.530 , 0.537 , 0.589 , 0.635 , 0.651 } , { 0.221 , 0.282 , 0.358 , 0.271 , 0.315 , 0.377 } , { 0.404 , 0.410 } x 3 = { 0.715 , 0.756 } , { 0.383 } , { 0.351 , 0.355 , 0.382 , 0.378 , 0.382 , 0.404 } x 4 = { 0.856 , 0.915 } , { 0.301 , 0.317 , 0.385 , 0.394 , 0.317 , 0.394 , 0.332 , 0.402 , 0.341 , 0.354 , 0.408 , 0.415 } , { 0.511 }
Step 3. 
Calculate the score function of x i ( i = 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ) by using Equation (1); then, we obtain
S ( x 1 ) = 0.64
S ( x 2 ) = 0.62
S ( x 3 ) = 0.66
S ( x 4 ) = 0.67
Step 4. 
The score function provides real numbers to the alternatives, and these alternatives gained the ranking as follows. The score function assigns real numbers to every alternative, and the order in which these alternatives are arranged follow a usual order from higher values to lower values as follows:
x 4 x 3 x 1 x 2
Step 5. 
The ranking of alternatives clearly describes that x 4 is the top alternative among four alternatives.

5.2. Comparative Analysis

The symmetry of top alternative can be seen by using Algorithm 1 for SVNHFWA, SVNHFWG, SVNHFDWA and SVNHFDWG operators. On the other hand, the order in which the options are ranked is not entirely consistent. This demonstrates that the ranking of alternatives is determined to seek the top alternative and positions of remaining alternatives. The comparative analysis of this ranking of alternatives is expressed in Table 9.
Algorithm 1: Algorithm for SVNHF information using Dombi aggregation operators
Consider a set of alternatives A γ = { A 1 γ A 2 γ , , A n γ } and a set of criterion C = { C 1 , C 2 , , C m } . The decision maker D gives his/her own decision matrix D = ( x i j ) n × m in the form of SVNHFNs, x i j is given for alternatives A i γ A γ with respect to criterion C j C .
Step 1. Consider a decision matrix D = ( x i j ) n × m in the form of SVNHFNs.
Step 2. Compute the collective SVNHFN x i ( i = 1 , 2 , , n ) for the alternatives A i γ ( i = 1 , 2 , , n ) by utilizing the SVNHFDWA operator:
x i = SVNHFDWA ( x i 1 , x i 2 , , x i m ) = j = 1 m ( w j x i j ) = ϕ i 1 P i 1 , ϕ i 2 P i 2 , , ϕ i m P i m , φ i 1 I i 1 , φ i 2 I i 2 , , φ i m I i m , ψ i 1 N i 1 , ψ i 2 N i 2 , , ψ i m N i m
1 1 1 + j = 1 m w j ϕ i j 1 ϕ i j λ 1 / λ , 1 1 + j = 1 m w j 1 φ i j φ i j λ 1 / λ , 1 1 + j = 1 m w j 1 ψ i j ψ i j λ 1 / λ
or by utilizing the SVNHFDWG operator:
x i = SVNHFDWG ( x i 1 , x i 2 , , x i m ) = j = 1 m x i j w j = ϕ i 1 P i 1 , ϕ i 2 P i 2 , , ϕ i m P i m , φ i 1 I i 1 , φ i 2 I i 2 , , φ i m I i m , ψ i 1 N i 1 , ψ i 2 N i 2 , , ψ i m N i m
1 1 1 + j = 1 m w j 1 ϕ i j ϕ i j λ 1 / λ , 1 1 + j = 1 m w j φ i j 1 φ i j λ 1 / λ , 1 1 + j = 1 m w j ψ i j 1 ψ i j λ 1 / λ
Step 3. Compute the score function of the collective SVNHFNs x i ( i = 1 , 2 , , n ) by utilizing Equation (1).
Step 4. Using a score function, rank the alternatives.
Step 5. Choose the top alternative.

6. Conclusions

SVNHFS is a robust fusion of an SVNS and HFS created for scenarios where each object has some possible values determined by truth-MD, indeterminacy, and falsity-MD. In this article, we propose an SVNHFDWA operator, SVNHFDWG operator, SVNHFDOWA operator, SVNHFDOWG operator, SVNHFDHA operator and SVNHFDHG operator. In addition, we proposed two innovative MADM techniques based on the SVNHFDWA and SVNHFDWG operators. The benefits of these methods are outlined in more detail below.
  • First, the SVNHFDWA and SVNHFDWG operators have significant properties such as idempotency, commutativity as well as boundedness and monotonity.
  • Second, the SVNHFDWA and SVNHFDWG operators can be converted to the previous AOs for SVNHFSs, which identify the versatility of proposed AOs.
  • Third, when compared to other existing approaches for MADM problems in an SVNHF environment, the results achieved by the SVNHFDWA and SVNHFDWG operators are reliable and accurate, which demonstrates their applicability in practical settings.
  • The techniques that are proposed for MADM in this paper are able to further acknowledge more association between attributes and alternatives, which demonstrates that they have a greater accuracy and a larger reference value than the techniques that are currently in use and that are unable to take into account the inter-relationships of attributes in practical applications. This means that the techniques that are proposed for MADM in this paper can further recognize more association between attributes.
  • A practical application of the proposed aggregation operators is also presented to examine symmetrical analysis in the selection of a feasible mobile robot (mobile charger) for vehicles.
  • It would be interesting to use the proposed AOs in future studies to deal with personalized individual semantics-based consistency control consensus problems in IDSS, consensus reaching with non-cooperative behavior management decision-making problems, and two-sided matching decision making with multi-granular and incomplete criteria weight information. In the context of this discussion on the constraints imposed by proposed AOs, there is no interaction between the degrees of membership, abstention, and non-membership. New hybrid structure of interactive and prioritized AOs may be seen being put into place on this side of the planned AOs.
