Abstract: In this paper, we give the concept of novel globular T-spherical fuzzy sets (G-TSFSs) as an innovative extension of TSFSs and circular spherical fuzzy sets (C-SFSs). G-TSFSs represent membership, indeterminacy, and nonmembership degrees using a globular/sphere bound that can offer a more accurate portrayal of vague, ambiguous, and imprecise information. By employing a structured representation of data points on a sphere with a specific center and radius, this model enhances decision-making processes by enabling a more comprehensive evaluation of objects within a flexible region. Following the newly defined G-TSFSs, we establish some basic set operations and introduce fundamental algebraic operations for G-TSF values (G-TSFVs). These operations expand the evaluative capabilities of decision-makers, facilitating more sensitive decision-making processes in a broader region. To quantify a similarity measure (SM) between G-TSFVs, the SM is defined based on the radius of G-TSFSs. Additionally, Hamming and Euclidean distances are introduced for G-TSFSs. We also present theorems and examples to elucidate computational mechanisms. Furthermore, we give the G-TSF weighted average (G-TSFWA) and G-TSF weighted geometric (G-TSFWG) operators. Leveraging our proposed SM, a multicriteria group decision-making (MCGDM) scheme for G-TSFSs, named G-TSF MCGDM (G-TSFMCGDM), is developed to address group decision-making problems. The applicability and effectiveness of the proposed G-TSFMCGDM method are demonstrated by applying it to solve the selection problem of the best venue for professional development training sessions in a firm. The analysis results affirm the suitability and utility of the proposed method for resolving MCGDM problems, establishing its effectiveness in practical decision-making scenarios.
