Abstract: Intuitionistic fuzzy (IF) information aggregation in multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) is a substantial stream that has attracted significant research attention. There are various IF aggregation operators have been suggested for extracting more informative data from imprecise and redundant raw information. However, some of the aggregation techniques that are currently being applied in IF environments are non-monotonic with respect to the total order, and suffer from high computational complexity and inflexibility. It is necessary to develop some novel IF aggregation operators that can surpass these imperfections. This paper aims to construct some IF aggregation operators based on Yager’s triangular norms to shed light on decision-making issues. At first, we present some novel IF operations such as Yager sum, Yager product and Yager scalar multiplication on IF sets. Based on these new operations, we propose the IF Yaeger weighted geometric operator and the IF Yaeger ordered weighted geometric operator, and prove that they are monotone with respect to the total order. Then, the focus on IF MCDM have motivated the creation of a new MCDM model that relies on suggested operators. We show the applicability and validity of the model by using it to select the most influential worldwide supplier for a manufacturing company and evaluate the most efficient method of health-care disposal. In addition, we discuss the sensitivity of the proposed operator to decision findings and criterion weights, and also analyze it in comparison with some existing aggregation operators. The final results show that the proposed operator is suitable for aggregating both IF information on “non-empty lattice" and IF data on total orders.
