Selection of an Appropriate Global Partner for Companies Using the Innovative Extension of the TOPSIS Method with Intuitionistic Hesitant Fuzzy Rough Information

In this research, we introduce the intuitionistic hesitant fuzzy rough set by integrating the notions of an intuitionistic hesitant fuzzy set and rough set and present some intuitionistic hesitant fuzzy rough set theoretical operations. We compile a list of aggregation operators based on the intuitionistic hesitant fuzzy rough set, including the intuitionistic hesitant fuzzy rough Dombi weighted arithmetic averaging aggregation operator, the intuitionistic hesitant fuzzy rough Dombi ordered weighted arithmetic averaging aggregation operator, and the intuitionistic hesitant fuzzy rough Dombi hybrid weighted arithmetic averaging aggregation operator, and demonstrate several essential characteristics of the aforementioned aggregation operators. Furthermore, we provide a multi attribute decision-making approach and the technique of the suggested approach in the context of the intuitionistic hesitant fuzzy rough set. A real-world problem for selecting a suitable worldwide partner for companies is employed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the suggested approach. The sensitivity analysis of the decision-making results of the suggested aggregation operators are evaluated. The demonstrative analysis reveals that the outlined strategy has applicability and flexibility in aggregating intuitionistic hesitant fuzzy rough information and is feasible and insightful for dealing with multi attribute decision making issues based on the intuitionistic hesitant fuzzy rough set. In addition, we present a comparison study with the TOPSIS approach to illustrate the advantages and authenticity of the novel procedure. Furthermore, the characteristics and analytic comparison of the current technique to those outlined in the literature are addressed.
