PG - e18100 LID - 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e18100 [doi] LID - e18100 AB - The multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) tool is a robust decision-making technique utilized in several fields like networking, risk management, digital analysis, cybercrime investigation, artificial intelligence, waste management enterprises and many other selection criteria. Complex SFS (CSFS) is a new edition of the spherical fuzzy set (SFS) that offers substantial information about any item in terms of amplitude and phase terms in a wider range of real terms. Complex SFS (CSFS) can be an extension of the spherical fuzzy set (SFS). The Aczel-Alsina aggregation tools are more appropriate aggregation operators (AOs), and they are used to conquer the impact of inconsistent and uncertain data. In this paper, we reveal some new approaches based on Aczel-Alsina aggregation tools under consideration of Complex Spherical Fuzzy (CSF) information. These new approaches include the CSF Aczel-Alsina weighted average (CSFAWA) operator, and the CSF Aczel-Alsina ordered weighted average (CSFOWA) operator. In addition to this, we also introduce a list of novel techniques by making use of the theory of Aczel-Alsina aggregation tools such as CSF Aczel-Alsina weighted geometric (CSFAWG) and CSF Aczel-Alsina ordered weighted geometric (CSFOWG) operators. To demonstrate the resilience and efficacy of the approaches that have been mentioned, we will examine a few exceptional examples and remarkable properties of the methodology that we have devised. In addition, a characterization is provided for an approach to the MCDM issue using the CPF information system. We use the example of electric automobiles as a case study to illustrate the uniformity and dependability of the methodology that we have established. This example was chosen because of the high cost of fuel and the present economic challenges that are being encountered by families in the middle class. An empirical case study is also constructed to determine an electric car that is desirable based on the techniques that we have proposed. To evaluate the correctness and superiority of the established strategies, we compare the outcomes of previously used techniques with the AOs currently being provided. CI - (c) 2023 The Authors.
