A bipolar complex fuzzy credibility set (BCFCS) is a new approach in computational intelligence and decision-making under uncertainty. Bipolar complex fuzzy credibility (BCFC) information has been employed as a strategy for dealing with confusing and unreliable situations that arise in everyday life. In this paper, we used the concept of aggregation operators to diagnose the well-known averaging and geometric aggregation operators, as well as evaluate some properties and related results. Using described operators, an algorithm for multiple criteria group decision making is proposed. Then, a numerical example of a case study of Hospital selection is discussed. Lastly, the comparative analysis of suggested operators with existing operators are also given to discuss the rationality, efficiency and applicability of these operators.
