Summary: | The method of determining probability thresholds of three-way decisions (3WDs) has always been the key of research, especially in the current environment with a large number of data and uncertainties. Among these problems, there will be correlation and similarity between them. In the light of these problems, the loss function with Probabilistic Linguistic Terms Sets (PLTSs) is introduced in the paper, and then we propose a PLTS evaluation-based approach to determine the thresholds and derive 3WDs. According to the definition and characters of PLTSs, the PLTSs loss function matrix is constructed firstly. Then using the equivalent model of Decision-theoretic rough sets (DTRSs), we construct the equivalent model (i.e., the <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><msup><mi>α</mi><mrow><mi>o</mi><mi>p</mi><mi>t</mi></mrow></msup></semantics></math></inline-formula>-model and the <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><msup><mi>β</mi><mrow><mi>o</mi><mi>p</mi><mi>t</mi></mrow></msup></semantics></math></inline-formula>-model, which are symmtrical) and try to find the optimal solution to determine the thresholds. Based on that, we propose a novel three-way decision approach under PLTSs evaluations. Finally, the validity of the method is verified by an example.
