Entropy-Based GLDS Method for Social Capital Selection of a PPP Project with q-Rung Orthopair Fuzzy Information
Abstract:
The social capital selection of a public-private-partnership (PPP) project could be regarded as a classical multiple attribute group decision-making (MAGDM) issue. In this paper, based on the traditional gained and lost dominance score (GLDS) method, the q-rung orthopair fuzzy entropy-based GLDS method was used to solve MAGDM problems. First, some basic theories related to the q-rung orthopair fuzzy sets (q-ROFSs) are briefly reviewed. Then, to fuse the q-rung orthopair fuzzy information effectively, the q-rung orthopair fuzzy Hamacher weighting average (q-ROFHWA) operator and q-rung orthopair fuzzy Hamacher weighting geometric (q-ROFHWG) operator based on the Hamacher operation laws are proposed. Moreover, to determine the attribute weights, the q-rung orthopair fuzzy entropy (q-ROFE) is proposed and some significant merits of it are discussed. Next, based on the q-ROFHWA operator, q-ROFE, and the traditional GLDS method, a MAGDM model with q-rung orthopair fuzzy information is built. In the end, a numerical example for social capital selection of PPP projects is provided to testify the proposed method and deliver a comparative analysis.

Decision Making: P-value Method
First, a specific claim about the population parameter is proposed. The claim is based on the research question and is stated in a simple form. Further, an opposing statement to the claim is also stated. These statements can act as null and alternative hypotheses: a null hypothesis would be a neutral statement while the alternative hypothesis can...
