Priority degrees for hesitant fuzzy sets: Application to multiple attribute decision making

In this paper, some drawbacks to existing ordering relations for hesitant fuzzy sets are examined using examples. To overcome these flaws, a priority degree formula for comparing two hesitant fuzzy sets is presented and the desirable priority degree properties studied. Then, based on an introduced p...
