Artif. Intell."],"abstract":"<jats:p>An infectious eye illness known as pink eye results in ocular redness, irritation, and mucus. Schools are an especially vulnerable region for dissemination because they can propagate that contagious disease quickly via direct or indirect interactions. Choosing the right medication to treat pink eye infection is typically thought of as an intricate multi-attribute group decision-making concern. The goal of this research is to construct a multi-attribute group decision-making framework that assesses six pink eye treatment medications, including Bleph-10, Moxeza, Zymar, Romycin, Polytrim, and Bacticin. The constructed multi-attribute group decision-making framework includes the following scenario: (1) In contrast to other types of fuzzy sets, the 2-tuple linguistic <jats:italic>T<\/jats:italic>-spherical fuzzy set (2TL<jats:italic>T<\/jats:italic>-SFS) looks to be a potent tool for dealing with informational inconsistencies in decision-making scenarios; (2) in order to render the 2TL<jats:italic>T<\/jats:italic>-SF accumulation details processing more flexible, the addition, multiplication, scalar multiplication, and exponential laws that are predicated on the Schweizer-Sklar collection of <jats:italic>t<\/jats:italic>-conorms and <jats:italic>t<\/jats:italic>-norms are described; (3) the Schweizer-Sklar weighted average and Schweizer-Sklar weighted geometric operators are then put forward employing the aforementioned operations to combine the data; (4) subsequently, using newly developed operators (referred to as 2TL<jats:italic>T<\/jats:italic>-SF Schweizer-Sklar weighted average and 2TL<jats:italic>T<\/jats:italic>-SF Schweizer-Sklar weighted geometric), this work enhances the conventional weighted aggregated sum product assessment (WASPAS) approach. The computation procedure for this methodology is thoroughly given to rank the alternatives; (5) to confirm the viability of the suggested approach, thorough computational and simulation assessments are conducted. An examination of the developed and existing research is compared to demonstrate the benefits of the suggested analysis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3389\/frai.2024.1496689","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,1,21]],"date-time":"2025-01-21T15:00:58Z","timestamp":1737471658000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["An overview of pink eye infection to evaluate its medications: group decision-making approach with 2-tuple linguistic T-spherical fuzzy WASPAS method"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"7","author":[{"given":"M.
