Distribution-based approaches to deriving weights from dual hesitant fuzzy information (Q2334013)

Summary: Modern cognitive psychologists believe that the decision act of cognitive bias on decision results is universal. To reduce their negative effect on dual hesitant fuzzy decision-making, we propose three weighting methods based on distribution characteristics of data. The main ideas are to assign higher weights to the mid arguments considered to be fair and lower weights to the ones on the edges regarded as the biased ones. The means and the variances of the dual hesitant fuzzy elements (DHFEs) are put forward to describe the importance degrees of the arguments. After that, these results are expanded to deal with the hesitant fuzzy information and some examples are given to show their feasibilities and validities.
