Assessment of Groundwater Potential Based on Multicriteria Decision Making Model and Decision Tree Algorithms

Interval-Based Multicriteria Decision Making

The aim of this paper is to show how non-additive measures and intervals can be combined in order to provide a simple and accurate approach to multi-criteria decision making problems. We construct an interval-based Choquet integral in order to derive preferences over a set of multidimensional alternatives. Preferences are no longer real number comparisons, but interval comparisons, which is not...

Multicriteria Decision Making Based on Fuzzy Relations

The considered models describe multicriteria decision making when the information provided from different criteria is given as fuzzy relations. These models differ according to the kind of the criteria weights and the aggregation procedures to fuse the fuzzy relations. The properties of aggregated fuzzy relation required to decide some multicriteria problem is discussed.

Application of Decision-Tree Model to Groundwater Productivity-Potential Mapping

For the sustainable use of groundwater, this study analyzed groundwater productivity-potential using a decision-tree approach in a geographic information system (GIS) in Boryeong and Pohang cities, Korea. The model was based on the relationship between groundwater-productivity data, including specific capacity (SPC), and its related hydrogeological factors. SPC data which is measured and calcul...

Spatial Multicriteria Decision Making

DEFINITION Multicriteria analysis is generally defined as “a decision-aid and a mathematical tool allowing the comparison of different alternatives or scenarios according to many criteria, often conflicting, in order to guide the decision maker towards a judicious choice” [12]. The set of decision alternatives considered in a given problem is often denoted by A and called the set of potential a...
