Abstract: In this paper, we investigate the multiple attribute decision making (MADM) problem based on the Muirhead Mean (MM) operators with dual Pythagorean hesitant fuzzy information. Then, motivated by the ideal of MM operators, we have developed some MM operators for aggregating dual hesitant Pythagorean fuzzy information. The prominent characteristic of these proposed operators are studied. Then, we have utilized these operators to develop some approaches to solve the dual hesitant Pythagorean fuzzy multiple attribute decision making problems. Finally, a practical example for supplier selection in supply chain management is given to verify the developed approach and to demonstrate its practicality and effectiveness.
