The Group Decision-Making Using Pythagorean Fuzzy Entropy and the Complex Proportional Assessment

The Pythagorean fuzzy sets conveniently capture unreliable, ambiguous, and uncertain information, especially in problems involving multiple and opposing criteria. Pythagorean fuzzy sets are one of the popular generalizations of the intuitionistic fuzzy sets. They are instrumental in expressing and managing hesitant under uncertain environments, so they have been involved extensively in a diversity of scientific fields. This paper proposes a new Pythagorean entropy for Multi-Criteria Decision-Analysis (MCDA) problems. The entropy measures the fuzziness of two fuzzy sets and has an influential position in fuzzy functions. The more comprehensive the entropy, the more inadequate the ambiguity, so the decision-making established on entropy is beneficial. The COmplex PRoportional ASsessment (COPRAS) method is used to tackle uncertainty issues in MCDA and considers the singularity of one alternative over the rest of them. This can be enforced to maximize and minimize relevant criteria in an assessment where multiple opposing criteria are considered. Using the Pythagorean sets, we represent a decisional problem solution by using the COPRAS approach and the new Entropy measure.
