Abstract

Being a follow-up study, this paper configures soft decision-making (SDM) methods (2017-2019), having been constructed with soft sets, soft matrices, and their fuzzy hybrid versions, to operate them in fuzzy parameterized fuzzy soft (fpfs) matrices space faithfully to the original. It then analyses the decision-making performances of the configured methods herein by using five test cases. Afterwards, it applies the methods, producing valid ranking order according to all the test cases, to the ranking of seven known noise-removal filters. This paper completes the configurations that allow the available methods (1999-2019) to operate in the fpfs-matrices space. Finally, the need for further research studies is discussed.
