Some q-rung orthopair fuzzy maclaurin symmetric mean operators and their applications to potential evaluation of emerging technology commercialization

Abstract

The Maclaurin symmetric mean (MSM) operator is a classical mean type aggregation operator used in modern information fusion theory, which is suitable to aggregate numerical values. The prominent characteristic of the MSM operator is that it can capture the interrelationship among the multi-input arguments. In this paper, we extend the MSM operator and dual MSM operator to q-rung orthopair fuzzy sets to propose the q-rung orthopair fuzzy MSM operator, q-rung orthopair fuzzy dual MSM operator, q-rung orthopair fuzzy weighted MSM operator, and q-rung orthopair fuzzy weighted dual MSM operator. Then, some desirable properties and special cases of these operators are discussed in detail. Finally, a numerical example is provided to illustrate the feasibility of the proposed methods and deliver the sensitivity analysis and comparative analysis.
