Abstract

How to fuse uncertain information in multiple attribute decision making (MADM) efficiently is still an open issue. The power average operation is an effective tool to aggregate interval data. However, existing methods to aggregate interval numbers based on power average operator are relatively complicated. In this paper, a simple and effective support function of interval data is proposed. Then, a novel interval number power average operation operator is presented. Finally, a practical MADM problem is used to show the efficiency of the developed method.
