Abstract
T-spherical fuzzy set is a recently developed model that copes with imprecise and uncertain events of real-life with the help of four functions having no restrictions. This article’s aim is to define some improved algebraic operations for T-SFSs known as Einstein sum, Einstein product and Einstein scalar multiplication based on Einstein t-norms and t-conorms. Then some geometric and averaging aggregation operators have been established based on defined Einstein operations. The validity of the defined aggregation operators has been investigated thoroughly. The multi-attribute decision-making method is described in the environment of T-SFSs and is supported by a comprehensive numerical example using the proposed Einstein aggregation tools. As consequences of the defined aggregation operators, the same concept of Einstein aggregation operators has been proposed for q-rung orthopair fuzzy sets, spherical fuzzy sets, Pythagorean fuzzy sets, picture fuzzy sets, and intuitionistic fuzzy sets. To signify the importance of proposed operators, a comparative analysis of proposed and existing studies is developed, and the results are analyzed numerically. The advantages of the proposed study are demonstrated numerically over the existing literature with the help of examples.
1. Introduction
To deal with imprecise and uncertain events has always been a challenging task as imprecision and vagueness lie in almost every field of science. To serve the goal, Zadeh [1] proposed the notion of a fuzzy set (FS) where he described the uncertainty of an object/event by a membership grade that has a value from the interval . Atanassov [2] proposed the notion of the intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS) based on two grades and representing the membership and non-membership degree of an object. Yager [3] proposed the idea of Pythagorean fuzzy set (PyFS) based on two grades and with the condition that the sum of squares of and must be less than or equal to 1. PyFS provides a considerably larger range for the values of and to be chosen but still, it has limited space. To obtain a space of membership and non-membership grades with no limitation, Yager [4] proposed the framework of q-rung orthopair fuzzy set (q-ROPFS) with the condition that the sum of the qth power of and must be less than or equal to 1, for a positive integer q. The constraints of these mentioned fuzzy frameworks are discussed in Table 1.
Table 1.
Fuzzy frameworks with their limitations).
All fuzzy models described in [1,2,3,4] either use one or two membership grades to model an event, but not all real-life events can always be modeled using these types of fuzzy frameworks. In 2013, Cuong [5] considered the situation of voting in which one may have four types of opinions including membership, abstinence, non-membership, and refusal degree. Cuong [5] used the four grades to model such events and developed the concept of the picture fuzzy set (PFS) with a restriction. The restriction on Cuong’s structure of PFS left no choice for decision makers to choose values of their consent for three functions and denoting membership, abstinence, and non-membership degree respectively. Realizing this problem, Mahmood et al. [6] developed the important concept of the spherical fuzzy set (SFS) and consequently the T-spherical fuzzy set (T-SFS). A T-SFS allows the decision makers to choose any value from closed unit interval regardless of any restriction. A description of the constraints of PFS, SFS and T-SFS is provided in Table 2.
Table 2.
Comparison of the restrictions of PFS, SFS and TSFS).
A geometrical comparison among the ranges of PFSs, SFSs and T-SFSs is depicted in Figure 1 which is based on the constraints discussed in Table 2. All the numbers within and on the space of PFSs represent picture fuzzy numbers; all the numbers on and within the space of SFSs represent spherical fuzzy numbers; and all the numbers on and within space of T-SFSs represent T-spherical fuzzy numbers for .
Figure 1.
Comparison between PFSs, SFSs and T-SFS.
From Figure 1, it is easy to observe that T-SFS is much more generalized and diverse than PFS and SFS. The space for T-SFS increases with any increment in the value of . This enables the experts to have much more values to assign to each membership, abstinence and non-membership grades.
Multi-attribute decision making (MADM) is one of the most discussed problems in FS theory due to its influence in engineering, economics and management sciences. The study of MADM started in 1970 [7] to use the concept of FS in a decision-making problem. Later, the concept of IFS and its aggregation tools have been greatly used in decision making problems. Xu [8] developed some aggregation operators (AOs) for IFSs and studied their applications in MADM. Klement and Mesiar [9] proposed some triangular norms. PyFSs also have been greatly utilized in MADM problems through some averaging and geometric aggregation tools developed by [10,11]. Cuong’s Structure of PFS has been utilized in MADM problems using the weighted geometric and averaging AOs of PFSs which have been developed by [12,13]. Mahmood at al. [6] developed some T-spherical fuzzy weighted geometric AOs and investigated their applications in MADM. Ullah et al. [14] solved a financial policy evaluation problem using interval-valued T-spherical fuzzy AOs. Ullah et al. [15] proposed some averaging AOs for T-SFSs and applied those operators to MADM problems. Liu et al. [16] introduced T-SF power Muirhead mean operators and utilized those operators in MADM problems. Garg et al. [17] dealt with MADM problems by introducing some T-spherical fuzzy interactive geometric AOs. For other notable work on the AOs of these fuzzy structures and their applications in MADM, one is referred to [18,19,20,21,22,23].
In the theory of aggregation, weighted geometric and averaging operators are the widely used operators and these are based on some t-norms and t-conorms. Literature survey witnessed some other types of t-norms and t-conorms, respectively—among them Einstein t-norm and t-conorms have got some serious attention. Based on Einstein t-conorms and t-norms, several aggregation tools have been proposed for various fuzzy algebraic structures. The Einstein weighted averaging (EWA) and Einstein weighted geometric (EWG) operators of IFSs and interval valued IFSs have been investigated in [24,25]. For PyFSs, EWA and Einstein interactive aggregation operators are developed by [26,27], respectively. For further interesting work on Einstein aggregation operators and their applications in MADM, one is referred to [28,29,30].
The continuous growth of interest has occurred in order to meet the requirements in needs of fertile applications of these inequalities. Such inequalities had been studied by many researchers who in turn used various techniques for the sake of exploring and offering these inequalities [31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42] and the references cited therein.
By analyzing the literature, no significant work can be found on EWA and EWG operators in the environment of PFSs, q-ROPFS, SFSs and T-SFSs. Keeping in mind the developments of Einstein aggregation operators, in this manuscript, some averaging, as well as geometric AOs, are produced based on Einstein operations for T-SFSs. Using the Einstein operations of T-SFSs, the same concepts are also defined for q-ROPFSs, PFSs, and SFSs as consequences of new proposed work. Furthermore, the generalization of new proposed work has also been discussed.
The remaining article is organized as section one provides a brief history of the fuzzy structure and theory of aggregation operators. Section 2 provides some initial concepts related to T-SFSs, SFSs, PFSs, q-ROPFSs, PyFSs and IFSs. In Section 3, we proposed the Einstein sum and Einstein product for T-SFSs. We also defined the Einstein sum and product for SFSs, q-ROPFS, and PFSs in a remark. Section 4 is based on the weighted averaging, ordered weighted averaging and hybrid averaging operators for T-SFSs based on Einstein sum; while Section 5 is based on the weighted geometric, ordered weighted geometric and hybrid geometric operators for T-SFSs based on Einstein product. In Section 6, the defined aggregation tools have used MADM. Section 7 provides the advantages of the proposed work. Further, with the help of some useful conditions, EWA and EWG operators are also defined for q-ROPFSs, SFSs and PFSs. A comparative analysis is also discussed with the help of examples. In Section 8, we summarized the article by pointing out some future study. The list of abbreviations adopted hereafter is given in Table 3:

6. An Approach to Multi-Attribute Decision Making with T-Spherical Fuzzy Information
Let be a set of alternatives and be a set of attributes. The selection of best alternative is carried out using the aggregation tools proposed under the weight vector , such that and . The weight vector is chosen to weigh the arguments of decision makers. The detailed steps of the decision-making process are illustrated as follows.
- Step 1. Find a value of for which the values lie in T-SF information means that find the exponent (which is finite natural number), such that the sum of the power of all membership, abstinence and non-membership values belong to [0, 1].
- Step 2. Find (or ).
- Step 3. Find scores values and by using these score values we reorder them in a descending order.
- Step 4. Aggregate these ordered values using T-SFEHA (or T-SFEHG) operators.
- Step 5. By finding scores we choose the best option.
These steps of MADM method are demonstrated in the following flow chart.

Example 1.
A company wants to extend his business and board of governors decided to invest their money in one of the best options from three business options:
- Food company
- Mobile phone company
- Construction company
They assess the given companies on the basis of the following attributes.
- Growth analysis
- Risk analysis
- Environmental impact analysis
- Development of society
- Social-political impact
The experts evaluate the given attributes under the consideration of given attributes as given in Table 4:
Table 4.
Decision Matrix.
Step 1: As, but . Similarly, the sum of the cube of all other values lies in [0, 1]. Therefore, for , all values in Table 1 are T-SFNs. This clearly indicates that the given information cannot be handled by the existing AOs of IFSs, PyFSs, PFSs as well as SFSs.
Step 2: By taking the weight vector w and using Equation (1), we find
Similarly, we can find all other values as given in Table 5.
Table 5.
T-SFEWA values.
Step 3. Scores of each attribute of all alternatives using are given in Table 6:
Table 6.
Score values of Table 5.
Table 7.
Ordered T-SFEWA values.
Step 4. With the help of normal distribution-based method, we get and by using Equation (3), we have
Similarly, all other values can also be found as follows:
Step 5. Now we have to find the score values
, ,
Since the score value of is highest, Food Company is the best option for investment.
Now, we check their validity by using Einstein hybrid geometric operators.
By taking weight vector and using Equation (4), we find T-SFEWG values as given in Table 8:
Table 8.
T-SFEWG values.
Scores of each attribute of all alternatives is listed in Table 9
Table 9.
Score Values.
Table 10.
Ordered T-SFEWG values.
With the help of normal distribution-based method, we get . and by using Equation (6), we have
Step 5. Now we have to find the score values
, ,
Here again, the score value of alternative is high. Therefore, Food Company is the best option for investment. Here it is important to discuss that the information given in Table 3 is purely T-SFNs; therefore, it cannot be aggregated using the existing approaches of IFSs [24,25], PyFSs [26,27], q-ROPFSs [23] as well as PFSs [12,13]. On the other hand, the work proposed in this manuscript can deal with all the existing problems that lie in the environment of IFSs, PyFSs, q-ROPFSs and PFSs, which is clearly demonstrated in Section 7.
7. Comparative Analysis
In this section, a comparative study is conducted in which it is shown that the proposed operators can be reduced to existing operators under some condition which proves the superiority of the proposed operators. An example is taken from [28] and it is proven that the proposed operators provide the same result.
Consider the T-SFEHA defined as
- For the above equation reduces to spherical fuzzy Einstein hybrid averaging operators (SFEHA operator), i.e.,
- For the above equation reduces to picture fuzzy Einstein hybrid averaging operators (PFEHA operator), i.e.,
- For the above equation reduces to q-ROPF Einstein hybrid averaging operators (q-ROPFEHA operator), i.e.,
- For and the above equation reduces to PyF Einstein hybrid averaging operators (PyFEHA operator), i.e.,
- For and the above equation reduces to IF Einstein hybrid averaging operators (IFEHA operator), i.e.,
Similarly, we can reduce the T-SFEWA, T-SFEOWA, T-SFEWG, T-SFEOWG and T-SFEHG operators.
Example 2.
Consider a decision matrix having five alternatives and evaluate under four attributes
The experts evaluate the alternatives on the basis of given attributes as in Table 11.
Table 11.
Decision Matrix.
The above decision matrix can be written in the T-SFSs environment as in Table 12

Decision Matrix in the form of T-SFNs.
with a weighting vector . Then, by using Equation (1) we get T-SFEWA values as in Table 13.
Table 13.
T-SFEWA values.
Then, by using score function we order them as listed in Table 14:
Table 14.
Ordered T-SFEWA values.
By using Equation (3), we get
The score values of aggregated values will be , , , , .
This shows that is most desirable alternative. Similarly, the above example can be aggregated by using T-SFEHG operator.
Example 3.
Consider the information is given in T-spherical fuzzy environment for as given in Table 15:
Table 15.
Decision Matrix.
Then some aggregation operators, e.g., T-spherical fuzzy weighted averaging (T-SFWA) operators, T-spherical fuzzy hybrid geometric (T-SFHG) operators, T-spherical fuzzy weighted interactive averaging (T-SFWIA), T-spherical fuzzy hybrid interactive geometric (T-SFHIG) operators, T-SFEWA operators, and T-SFEWG operators are used to solve given data. The aggregated values for these operators are given in Table 16:

Advantages
The advantages of proposed work over existing work are discussed in this section. The advantages of our work are as follows:
- T-SFS is superior to IFS, PyFS, q-ROPFS, PFS and SFS which is claimed and proved Example 1 and 2.
- T-spherical fuzzy Einstein AOs are more flexible than Einstein aggregation operators of IFSs, PyFSs and, PFS. This flexibility is shown in Section 7 where few restrictions on the proposed operator reduce them to Einstein operators of IFSs, PyFSs, q-ROPFSs, PFSs, and SFSs.
- Proposed operators can solve all the problems that are discussed in [15,17,18,24,25,26,29,40] but the existing operators cannot solve the problems when the information is given in T-SFNs.
8. Conclusions
In this paper, some new Einstein AOs are proposed by pointing out the shortcomings of the existing operators. T-SF Einstein AOs can deal with problems where human opinion is more than two types, i.e., it involves some abstinence and refusal degree as well. Some operations are defined for T-SFSs and based on these operations some improved Einstein averaging aggregation operators and Einstein geometric aggregation operators are defined. Some properties of these aggregation operators are also discussed. The validity of proposed operators is checked with the help of the MADM problem. The comparative analysis between existing and proposed work is also discussed, in which some conditions are studied under which the proposed operators can be reduced to other tools of uncertainty, such as IFSs, PyFSs, q-ROPFSs, PFSs, SFSs. Some examples are also discussed in which the superiority of proposed operators is proved. The advantages of proposed operators are also discussed. In the future, we aim to develop some power AOs, McLaurin symmetric mean operators, Heronian mean AOs and Dombi AOs in the environment of T-SFSs. We also aim to generalize these operators in the field of T-spherical fuzzy soft sets.
