description The social division of labor has become increasingly specialized, and there are more and more group decision-making problems participated by multiple decision-makers. With respect to the multi-attribute group decision making problem, including two-tuple linguistic information, based on the theory and method of group decision making, Steiner point constraint and plant growth simulation algorithm, we establish a novel multi-attribute group decision making approach based on two-tuple linguistic information aggregation. We introduce Steiner points into group consensus decision making and use the PGSA algorithm to seek the global optimal point. The method seeks set points that are both mathematically and geometrically meaningful to reduce set bias. In this paper, to begin with, according to the constraints of multi-dimensional Steiner point, we map the evaluation vectors of the group experts over the alternatives into multi-dimensional space and then we propose a two-tuple linguistic information aggregation model. Moreover, we construct a comprehensive evaluation decision making approach and then design a plant growth simulation algorithm to select the optimal alternative. Finally, a case verifies the validity and rationality of the proposed model.
