摘要

Dual hesitant fuzzy sets (DHFSs) powerfully characterize uncertainty information by combining intuitionistic and hesitant mechanisms, and their aggregation operators (AOs) facilitate multi-attribute decision making (MADM). AOs mainly rely on underlying operations (such as addition and multiplication) determined by triangular norm/conorm (t-norm/t-conorm); in particular, Heronian mean operators systematically reveal interrelationships among aggregation arguments, while the Aczel-Alsina t-norm/t-conorm effectively acquires the parametric flexibility. Aiming at DHFSs, this paper constructs extended Heronian mean operators based on Aczel-Alsina t-norm/t-conorm, so new AOs are developed to motivate MADM. At first, Aczel-Alsina operations of addition, multiplication, scalar multiplication and power action are defined for DHFSs, and their operational laws are acquired. Then by Aczel-Alsina operations, basic and geometric Heronian mean operators on DHFSs are determined from direct and weighted perspectives, and thus \(2\times 2=4\) 2 × 2 = 4 AOs systematically emerge, including dual hesitant fuzzy Aczel-Alsina basic and geometric Heronian mean operators (i.e., DHFAAHM and DHFAAGHM) and their weighted forms (i.e., DHFAAWHM, DHFAAWGHM). These four new AOs achieve essential analytic expressions and in-depth mathematical properties (including idempotence, boundedness, monotonicity). Finally, the two weighted aggregation operators – DHFAAWHM and DHFAAWGHM – are utilized to construct a novel method of MADM for dual hesitant fuzzy information processing, and its applicability, robustness, effectiveness are verified via a practical example and corresponding approach comparisons.
