Abstract

A cubic bipolar fuzzy set (CBFS) is a robust model which has the ability to simultaneously deal with bipolarity and vagueness by taking into account both interval-valued bipolar fuzzy sets (IVBFSs) and bipolar fuzzy sets (BFSs). Motivated by this innovative model, in the present article, some novel distance and entropy measures for CBFSs are proposed. Some operations on cubic bipolar fuzzy numbers (CBFNs) are also presented under P(R)-order by utilizing Einstein t-norm and t-conorm. For information fusion of CBFNs, several novel averaging aggregation operators are introduced based on Einstein operations named as P(R)-order cubic bipolar fuzzy (CBF) Einstein weighted averaging operator (P(R)-CBFEWAO), P(R)-order CBF Einstein ordered weighted averaging operator (P(R)-CBFEOWAO), and P(R)-order CBF Einstein hybrid weighted averaging operator (P(R)-CBFEHWAO). A new hybrid technique with Einstein averaging aggregation operators and CBF-VIKOR method is developed for multi-attribute group decision-making (MAGDM). A practical application of the suggested MAGDM technique towards the best renewable energy resource selection is presented. The applicability and feasibility of the newly proposed technique is analyzed by a comparative analysis of suggested technique with the already existing techniques.
