Abstract

Aiming at the multi-attribute decision-making problem with unknown attribute and expert weight, this paper proposes a multi-attribute decision-making method based on Heronian operator and regret theory. Firstly, the probability language term set (PLTS) is used to describe the evaluation information of decision-makers to form an initial matrix. Then the distance between experts is calculated, and the expert weight is obtained by using the node tightness. Secondly, integrate the decision information of all experts and construct the initial comprehensive matrix. Then define an impact factor parameter to reduce the impact of unreasonable schemes in the polymerization process and form the final comprehensive evaluation matrix. Thirdly, construct perceived utility matrix using Regret Theory. Finally, the information entropy theory is used to determine the attribute weight, and the three parameter weighted Heronian average operator is used to aggregate the decision values as weighted Heronian average operator is used to aggregate the decision values as verified by an example of evaluating the innovation ability of scientific research verified by an example of evaluating the innovation ability of scientific research institutions, and the results obtained by this method are reasonable and reliable.
