This study introduces a novel circular Pythagorean fuzzy set (Cr-PyFS) approach for decision-making in educational quality and instructor training. It enhances ranking methods to manage uncertainty and improve educational policy development.
Area of Science:
- Educational Decision-Making
- Fuzzy Set Theory
- Mathematical Optimization
Background:
- Quality education and instructor training are vital for societal development, necessitating effective decision-making in educational policies.
- Existing decision-making frameworks struggle with uncertainty and vagueness inherent in complex educational contexts.
- The need for robust mathematical methodologies to aggregate preferences and rank alternatives in educational settings is evident.
Purpose of the Study:
- To develop a novel decision-making framework using circular Pythagorean fuzzy sets (Cr-PyFS) to address uncertainty in educational quality and instructor training.
- To formulate flexible operations and aggregation operators within the circular Pythagorean fuzzy (Cr-PyF) environment.
- To establish a comprehensive approach for ranking training institutes based on instructor skill development criteria.
Main Methods:
- Modification of fuzzy framework and decision-making techniques.
- Exploration of circular Pythagorean fuzzy sets (Cr-PyFS) and their operations (Frank t-norm and t-conorm).
- Development of Cr-PyF aggregation operators (Cr-PyFFWA, Cr-PyFFWG), CRITIC method for criteria weighting, and WASPAS for alternative ranking.
Main Results:
- A numerical example demonstrated the framework's efficacy in selecting suitable training institutes for enhancing instructor skills.
- The proposed Cr-PyF approach effectively manages uncertainty and vagueness in decision-making processes.
- Comparative analysis validated the superiority of the pioneering methods over existing techniques.
Conclusions:
- The developed Cr-PyF decision-making approach offers a robust and flexible tool for improving educational quality and instructor training.
- This methodology provides a reliable mechanism for ranking alternatives under complex and uncertain conditions.
- The study highlights the potential of advanced fuzzy set theory in optimizing educational policy and practice.
