Abstract
T-spherical fuzzy (T-SF) sets furnish a constructive and flexible manner to manifest higher-order fuzzy information in realistic decision-making contexts. The objective of this research article is to deliver an original multiple-criteria choice method that utilizes a correlation-focused approach toward computational intelligence in uncertain decision-making activities with T-spherical fuzziness. This study introduces the notion of T-SF data-driven correlation measures that are predicated on two types of the square root function and the maximum function. The purpose of these measures is to exhibit the overall desirability of choice options across all performance criteria using T-SF comprehensive correlation indices within T-SF decision environments. This study executes an application for location selection and demonstrates the effectiveness and suitability of the developed techniques in T-SF uncertain conditions. The comparative analysis and outcomes substantiate the justifiability and the strengths of the propounded methodology in pragmatic situations under T-SF uncertainties.

Abstract
In recent years, the multi-attribute group decision making (MAGDM) problem has received extensive attention and research, and it plays an increasingly important role in our daily life. Fuzzy environment provides a more accurate decision-making environment for decision makers, so the research on MAGDM problem under fuzzy environment sets (SFSs) has become popular. Taxonomy method has become an effective method to solve the problem of MAGDM. It also plays an important role in solving the problem of MAGDM combined with other environments. In this paper, a new method for MAGDM is proposed by combining Taxonomy method with SFSs (SF-Taxonomy). In addition, we use entropy weight method to calculate the objective weight of attributes, so that more objective results can be produced when solving MAGDM problems.

Abstract
In our daily life, we could be confronted with numerous multiple attribute group decision making (MAGDM) problems. For such problems we designed a model which employs probabilistic linguistic MABAC (multi-attributive border approximation area comparison) based on the cumulative prospect theory (CPT-PL-MABAC) method to solve the MAGDM. The CPT-PL-MABAC method can take experts’ psychological behaviour and preferences into consideration. Furthermore, we utilize the combined weight consisting of subjective weight and objective weight. The objective weight is acquired by the entropy method. Additionally, the concrete calculating steps of CPT-PL-MABAC method are proposed to solve the MAGDM for selecting the optimal location of express distribution centre. Also, a numerical example for location selection of express distribution centre is given as the justification of the usefulness of the designed method. Finally, we compare the designed model with the other three existing models, and summarize the advantages and shortcomings.
