Pythagorean Fuzzy Choquet Integral Based MABAC Method for Multiple Attribute Group Decision Making

In this paper, we define the Choquet integral operator for Pythagorean fuzzy aggregation operators, such as Pythagorean fuzzy Choquet integral average (PFCIA) operator and Pythagorean fuzzy Choquet integral geometric (PFCIG) operator. The operators not only consider the importance of the elements or their ordered positions but also can reflect the correlations among the elements or their ordered positions. It is worth pointing out that most of the existing Pythagorean fuzzy aggregation operators are special cases of our operators. Meanwhile, some basic properties are discussed in detail. Later, we propose two approaches to multiple attribute group decision making with attributes involving dependent and independent by the PFCIA operator and multi-attributive border approximation area comparison (MABAC) in Pythagorean fuzzy environment. Finally, two illustrative examples have also been taken in the present study to verify the developed approaches and to demonstrate their practicality and effectiveness.
