Spherical fuzzy sets (SFSs) are a new extension of Cuong's picture fuzzy sets (PFSs). In SFSs, membership degrees satisfy the condition 0≤P2(x)+I2(x)+N2(x)≤1 instead of 0≤P(x)+I(x)+N(x)≤1 as is in PFSs. In… Click to show full abstract

Spherical fuzzy sets (SFSs) are a new extension of Cuong's picture fuzzy sets (PFSs). In SFSs, membership degrees satisfy the condition 0≤P2(x)+I2(x)+N2(x)≤1 instead of 0≤P(x)+I(x)+N(x)≤1 as is in PFSs. In the present work, we extend different strict archimedean triangular norm and conorm to aggregate spherical fuzzy information. Firstly, we define the SFS and discuss some operational rules. Generalized spherical aggregation operators for spherical fuzzy numbers utilizing these strict Archimedean t‐norm and t‐conorm are proposed. Finally, based on these operators, a decision‐making method has been established for ranking the alternatives by utilizing a spherical fuzzy environment. The suggested technique has been demonstrated with a descriptive example for viewing their effectiveness as well as reliability. A test checking the reliability and validity has also been conducted for viewing the supremacy of the suggested technique.
