Abstract

In this paper, we develop a 2-tuple prioritized weighted harmonic (2TPWH) operator and discuss its desirable properties such as idemtopency, boundedness and monotonicity. Then, we apply the 2TPWH operator to propose an approach to multiple attribute group decision making, with 2-tuple linguistic information, in which the decision makers and attributes are in different priority levels. Finally, an example is used to illustrate the applicability of the proposed approach.
