Abstract: In this paper, we investigate the multiple attribute decision making problems with interval-valued Pythagorean uncertain linguistic information. Then, we utilize arithmetic and geometric operations to develop some interval-valued Pythagorean uncertain linguistic aggregation operators: interval-valued Pythagorean uncertain linguistic weighted average (IVPULWA) operator, interval-valued Pythagorean uncertain linguistic weighted geometric (IVPULWG) operator, interval-valued Pythagorean uncertain linguistic ordered weighted average (IVPULOWA) operator, interval-valued Pythagorean uncertain linguistic ordered weighted geometric (IVPULOWG) operator, interval-valued Pythagorean uncertain linguistic hybrid average (IVPULHA) operator and interval-valued Pythagorean uncertain linguistic hybrid geometric (IVPULHG) operator, some interval-valued Pythagorean uncertain linguistic correlate aggregation operators, some interval-valued Pythagorean uncertain linguistic induced aggregation operators, some interval-valued Pythagorean uncertain linguistic induced correlate aggregation operators and some interval-valued Pythagorean uncertain linguistic power aggregating operators. The prominent characteristic of these proposed operators are studied. Then, we have utilized these operators to develop some approaches to solve the interval-valued Pythagorean uncertain linguistic multiple attribute decision making problems. Finally, a practical example for enterprise resource planning (ERP) system selection is given to verify the developed approach and to demonstrate its practicality and effectiveness.
