Abstract

Abstract: A neutrosophic uncertain linguistic variable is composed of an uncertain linguistic variable and a neutrosophic number, which has more advantages than both of uncertain linguistic variable and neutrosophic number in expression. Therefore, the decision-making theory and its related methods based on neutrosophic uncertain linguistic variables have received wide attention of scholars. This paper mainly studies the new expression and operations of single value neutrosophic uncertain linguistic variables and its application in multiple attribute group decision-making (MAGDM). First, a new form of single value neutrosophic uncertain linguistic set (NFSVNULS) and its operational rules are defined. Then, a new form of single value neutrosophic uncertain linguistic variable weighted arithmetic average (NFSVNULVWAA) operator and a new form of single value neutrosophic uncertain linguistic variable weighted geometric average (NFSVNULVWGA) operator are proposed. Furthermore, a MAGDM method based on the proposed aggregation operators is put forward. Finally, an example of investment is used to demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method.
