摘要：Hesitant fuzzy sets (HFSs), which were generalized from fuzzy sets, constrain the membership degree of an element to be a set of possible values between zero and one; furthermore, if two or more decision-makers select the same value, it is only counted once. However, a situation where the evaluation value is repeated several times differs from one where the value appears only once. Multi-hesitant fuzzy sets (MHFSs) can deal effectively with a case where some values are repeated more than once in a MHFS. In this paper, the novel convex combination of multi-hesitant fuzzy numbers (MHFNs) is introduced. Some aggregation operators based on convex operation, such as generalized multi-hesitant fuzzy ordered weighted average (GMHFOWA) operator, generalized multi-hesitant fuzzy hybrid weighted average (GMHFHWA) operator, generalized multi-hesitant fuzzy prioritized weighted average (GMHFPWA) operator and generalized multi-hesitant fuzzy Choquet integral weighted average (GMHFCIWA) operator, are developed and corresponding properties are discussed in detail. Then, based on the proposed aggregation operators, a novel approach for multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) problem is proposed for ranking alternatives. Finally, an example is provided to verify the developed approach and demonstrate its validity and feasibility and the study is supported by a sensitivity analysis and a comparison analysis.
