Abstract
In the real number set, generalized intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (GIFNs) are an impressive number of fuzzy sets (FSs). GIFNs are very proficient in managing the decision-making problem data. Our aim of this paper is to develop a new ranking method for solving a multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) problem with GIFN data. Here, we have defined the possibility mean and standard deviation of GIFNs. Then, we have formulated the magnitude of membership and non-membership function of GIFNs. In the proposed MADM problem, the attribute values are expressed as GIFNs, which is a very workable environment for decision-making problems. Finally, a numerical example is analyzed to demonstrate the flexibility, applicability and universality of the proposed ranking method and MADM problem.
