| Abstract | With a focus on T-spherical fuzzy (T-SF) sets, the aim of this paper is to create a split-new appraisal mechanism and an innovative decision analytic method for use with multiple-criteria assessment and selection in uncertain situations. The T-SF frame is the latest recent advancement in fuzzy settings and uses four facets (consisting of membership grades of positivity, neutrality, negativity, and refusal) to elucidate complex uncertainties, thereby evidently reducing information loss, in anticipation of fully manifesting indistinct and equivocal information. This paper adds to the body of knowledge regarding multiple criteria choice modeling by raising T-SF correlation-oriented measurements connected to the fixed and displaced ideal/anti-ideal benchmarks and by creating an approachable appraisal mechanism for advancing a T-SF decision analytic methodology. Consider, in particular, the performance ratings of available options in terms of judging criteria under the T-SF type of uncertainties. This research gives correlation-oriented measurements focusing on two varieties of maximum and square root functions in T-SF situations, which serve as a solid foundation for an efficacious appraisal mechanism from two views of anchored judgments corresponding to the fixed and displaced benchmarks. The T-SF Minkowski distance index is generated to integrate the outranking and outranked identifiers relying on correlation-oriented measurements for figuring out the local outranking and outranked indices. The T-SF decision analytic procedures are constructed using a new appraisal significance index that is founded on certain valuable insights of correlation-oriented maximizing and minimizing indices as well as global outranking and outranked indices. Additionally, a concrete location selection dilemma is dealt with in this research to showcase the applicability and efficiency of the suggested T-SF decision analytic methodology. Sensitivity analyses and comparative studies are carried out to investigate substantial modifications in pertinent parameters and to confirm the robustness of the predominance relationships among the available options. The suggested approaches are adaptable, flexible, and reliable, according to the application outcomes and comparison findings. This research provides four scientific contributions: (1) the utilization of T-SF correlation coefficients as the basis for prioritization analysis involving multiple criteria assessments, (2) the evolution of the T-SF Minkowski distance index to model outranking decision-making processes, (3) the creation of a reliable appraisal mechanism based on T-SF correlation-oriented measurements for intelligent decision support, and (4) the advancement of computational tools and procedures (e.g., correlation-oriented maximizing and minimizing indices, global outranking and outranked indices, and appraisal significance indices) to perform the decision analytic procedure in T-SF settings. In terms of managerial implications, the solution findings support the employment of the fixed ideal/anti-ideal benchmarking mechanism, as its measurements and indices are easy to operate and suitably sensitive. Next, in practical implementations of the T-SF decision analytic procedure, it is advised to utilize the T-SF Manhattan distance index for calculating convenience. Finally, the T-SF decision analytic techniques offer fundamental ideas and measurements appropriate for manipulating T-SF information in complex decision situations, thereby increasing the application potential in the area of decision-making with information uncertainty. |
