The uncertainty is managed by using probability and decision theory methods. Multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) technique is a very effective and well-known tool to investigate fuzzy information more effectively. However, the selection of houses cannot be carried out by utilizing symmetry information, because enterprises does not have complete information, so asymmetric information should be used when selecting enterprises. Hamy mean (HM) operator is a feasible tool to handle strategic decision-making problems because it can capture the order between the finite input terms. Additionally, the complex interval-valued q-rung orthopair fuzzy (CIVq-ROF) setting is a broadly flexible and massively dominant technique to operate problematic and awkward data in actual life problems. The major contribution of this analysis is how to aggregate the collection of alternatives into a singleton set, for this we analyzed the technique of CIVq-ROF Hamy mean (CIVq-ROFHM) operator and CIVq-ROF weighted Hamy mean (Cq-ROFWHM) operator and some well-known results are deliberated. Keeping the advantages of the parameters in HM operators, we discussed the specific cases of the invented operators. To investigate the decision-making problems based on CIVq-ROF information, we suggested the following multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) technique to determine the beneficial term from the finite group of alternatives with the help of evaluating several examples. This manuscript showed how to make decisions when there is asymmetric information about enterprises. Finally, based on the evaluating examples, we try to discover the sensitive analysis and supremacy of the invented operators to find the flexibility and dominancy of the diagnosed approaches.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/sym14030592","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,3,16]],"date-time":"2022-03-16T22:15:04Z","timestamp":1647468904000},"page":"592","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Complex Interval-Valued q-Rung Orthopair Fuzzy Hamy Mean Operators and Their Application in Decision-Making Strategy"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Zeeshan","family":"Ali","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mathematics & Statistics, International Islamic University Islamabad, Islamabad 44000, Pakistan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3871-3845","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tahir","family":"Mahmood","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mathematics & Statistics, International Islamic University Islamabad, Islamabad 44000, Pakistan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8522-1942","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dragan","family":"Pamucar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Logistics, University of Defense, 11050 Belgrade, Serbia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Chuliang","family":"Wei","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electronic Engineering, Shantou University, Shantou 515063, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,3,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"87","DOI":"10.1016\/S0165-0114(86)80034-3","article-title":"Intuitionistic fuzzy sets","volume":"20","author":"Atanassov","year":"1986","journal-title":"Fuzzy Sets Syst."},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"338","DOI":"10.1016\/S0019-9958(65)90241-X","article-title":"Fuzzy sets","volume":"8","author":"Zadeh","year":"1965","journal-title":"Inf.
