This paper presents aggregation operators which encapsulate the interaction among the criteria and preferences under complex intuitionistic fuzzy (CIF) conditions. The current extensions of fuzzy set theory handle only the uncertain data by representing the satisfaction and dissatisfaction degrees as real values and hence lose some information. A modification to these, CIF sets are portrayed by complex-valued membership degrees and can handle the data concurrently using additional terms, called phase terms, which usually give knowledge related to periodicity. Motivated by the features of the CIF model, this paper studies some aggregation operators, weighted averaging and geometric, for CIF sets and investigates their properties. To ease with the possible application, we explore the decision-making (DM) process in the CIF set environment and present an algorithm to solve the multiple criteria DM problems. Finally, a practical example is presented to demonstrate the DM process based on the proposed operators and compared their performance with some similar approaches.
