Abstract

The main task of this paper is to develop a new decision making method based on a novel entropy measure of intuitionistic fuzzy sets. First a novel intuitionistic fuzzy entropy is constructed, then based on this information measure, new weighting methods are proposed for the intuitionistic fuzzy decision making problems with the attribute weights are completely unknown or partly known. Further the intuitionistic fuzzy TOPSIS method is developed in this paper, and two examples are given to illustrate effectiveness and practicability of proposed method.
