Abstract
In this paper, we define aggregation operators for trapezoidal cubic linguistic fuzzy sets which includes generalized cubic linguistic fuzzy averaging (geometric) operator, generalized trapezoidal cubic linguistic fuzzy weighted averaging (GTrCLFWA) operator, generalized trapezoidal cubic linguistic fuzzy weighted geometric (GTrCFWG) operator, generalized trapezoidal cubic linguistic fuzzy ordered weighted average (GTrCLFOWA) operator, generalized trapezoidal cubic linguistic fuzzy ordered weighted geometric (GTrCLFOWG) operator, generalized trapezoidal cubic linguistic fuzzy hybrid averaging (GTrCLFHA) operator and generalized trapezoidal cubic linguistic fuzzy hybrid geometric (GTrCLFHG) operator. Furthermore, we relate these aggregation operators to develop an approach to multiple attribute group decision-making with trapezoidal cubic linguistic fuzzy information. Finally, a numerical example is providing to demonstrate the submission of the established approach.
