Abstract

In this study, we introduce and explore square-root fuzzy sets (SR-Fuzzy sets), a novel extension within the realm of fuzzy set theory. We begin by establishing a comparative analysis between SR-Fuzzy sets and two well-known fuzzy set models: Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets (IFS) and Pythagorean Fuzzy Sets (PFS). This comparison highlights the unique characteristics and mathematical structure of SR-Fuzzy sets. A particular focus is placed on the complement operator, which plays a critical role in the logical framework and functional behavior of SR-Fuzzy sets. Additionally, we define a set of fundamental mathematical operations specific to SR-Fuzzy sets, laying the groundwork for further theoretical development. To facilitate practical applications, an accuracy function is formulated, along with a scoring function that enables effective ranking of SR-Fuzzy sets. We also investigate the use of Euclidean distance as a metric for measuring dissimilarity between two SR-Fuzzy sets. Building on these foundations, we propose a novel SR-Fuzzy Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) approach, tailored for addressing multiple-criteria decision-making (MCDM) problems. The robustness and applicability of the proposed methodology are illustrated through a comprehensive, real-world numerical example, thereby demonstrating its relevance, practicality, and potential advantages over existing methods.

Keywords: SR-Fuzzy sets, Euclidean distance, Multicriteria decision making, complement operator, fuzzy decision-making
