Abstract

Alkhazaleh and Salleh introduced the fuzzy soft expert sets which allow to know the opinion of more than one expert and the fuzzy set corresponding to it in one model. However, the paper Fuzzy Soft Expert Sets [Applied Mathematics, 2014, 5, 1349-1368] has some mistakes and the decision making algorithm given in this paper has some unnecessary steps. Furthermore the results of this algorithm and Maji et al's algorithm without reduction are equivalent. In this paper, for further study on the fuzzy soft expert sets, we have made it fit into this concept which is important for the development of the concept of soft sets by decontaminating from its own inconsistencies. Besides all these, we propose and apply an algorithm for the new concept by using new definitions and Maji et al's algorithm without reduction. We finally discuss this concept later on works.
