RETRACTED: Two-sided matching decision making for probabilistic hesitant fuzzy numbers

Abstract

Probabilistic hesitant fuzzy set (PHFS), as a complex ambiguous information representation tool, has been widely used in decision making problem, but is rarely applied in a two-sided matching (TSM). Therefore, it is important and necessary to investigate the TSM problem with PHFS. This paper proposes a decision method for TSM with probabilistic hesitant fuzzy Numbers (PHFNs) and applies it to the person-job fit problem. Firstly, a novel TSM decision model on the basis of PHFNs is constructed. In order to solve this model, the TSM model is transformed into a two-goal TSM model by using linear weighted method. And then, the two-goal TSM model with PHFN can be changed into a single-goal TSM model with scores through score function. The perfect alternative of TSM could be obtained through model solution. Finally, an example is given to illustrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method.
