Abstract: In this paper, we investigate the multiple attribute decision making problems with Pythagorean uncertain linguistic information. Then, we utilize arithmetic and geometric operations to develop some Pythagorean uncertain linguistic aggregation operators: Pythagorean uncertain linguistic weighted average (PULWA) operator, Pythagorean uncertain linguistic weighted geometric (PULWG) operator, Pythagorean uncertain linguistic ordered weighted average (PULOWA) operator, Pythagorean uncertain linguistic ordered weighted geometric (PULOWG) operator, Pythagorean uncertain linguistic hybrid average (PULHA) operator and Pythagorean uncertain linguistic hybrid geometric (PULHG) operator. The prominent characteristic of these proposed operators are studied. Then, we have utilized these operators to develop some approaches to solve the 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.
