Abstract Dempster–Shafer (D–S) evidence theory is useful for handling uncertainty
problems in multisensor data fusion. However, the question of how to handle highly …

The Pythagorean fuzzy set (PFS) which is an extension of intuitionistic fuzzy set, is more
capable of expressing and handling the uncertainty under uncertain environments, so that it …

Fractals play an important role in nonlinear science. The most important parameter when

Supplier selection in food supply chains (FSCs) is not much explored due to the inherent
difficulties, complexities and nature of food industry. Food security and quality are top row …

Dempster–Shafer evidence theory (evidence theory) has been widely used as an efficient
method for dealing with uncertainty. In evidence theory, Dempster's rule is the most well …

Pythagorean fuzzy set, initially extended by Yager from intuitionistic fuzzy set, is capable of
modeling information with more uncertainties in the process of multi-criteria decision making …

The selection of the optimal supply is an open and crucial issue in supply chain
