Abstract

In this paper, we investigate group decision making problems based on interval fuzzy preference relations. We define an uncertain power weighted average (UPWA) operator and an uncertain power ordered weighted average (UPOWA) operator, on the basis of the power average operator of Yager (IEEE Trans Syst Man Cybern A 31:724–731, 1988) and the uncertain geometric mean. In the situations where the weights of experts are known, we develop a method based on the UPWA operator for group decision making with interval fuzzy preference relations; and in the situations where the weights of experts are unknown, we develop a method based on the UPOWA operator for group decision making with interval fuzzy preference relations.
