A Novel Hybrid MCDM Model Combined with DEMATEL and ANP with Applications
نویسندگان
چکیده
In multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) methods, the analytic network process (ANP) is used to overcome the problems of interdependence and feedback between criteria or alternatives. The ANP method currently deals with normalization in the supermatrix by assuming each cluster has equal weight. Although the method to normalize the supermatrix is easy, it ignores the different effects among clusters. Therefore, we propose a novel hybrid MCDM model combined with DEMATEL and ANP to solve the dependence and feedback problems to suit the real world. In addition, we also give an example to illustrate the proposed method with applications thereof. The results show the proposed method is more suitable in real world applications than the traditional ones.

Identification of Factors Affecting Quality of Teaching Engineering Drawing using a Hybrid MCDM Model
Identification of the factors affecting teaching quality of engineering drawing and interaction between them is necessary until it is determined which manipulation will improve the quality of teaching this course. Since the above issue is a Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) problem and on the other hand, we are faced with human factors, the Fuzzy DEMATEL method is suggested for solving it. ...

متن کاملChoosing knowledge management strategies by using a combined ANP and DEMATEL approach
Numerous companies are expecting their knowledge management (KM) to be performed effectively in order to leverage and transform the knowledge into competitive advantages. However, here raises a critical issue of how companies can better evaluate and select a favorable KM strategy prior to a successful KM implementation. The KM strategy selection is a kind of multiple criteria decision-making (M...
متن کاملA novel hybrid MCDM approach based on fuzzy DEMATEL, fuzzy ANP and fuzzy TOPSIS to evaluate green suppliers
It is well known that ‘‘green’’ principles and strategies have become vital for companies as the public awareness increased against their environmental impacts. A company’s environmental performance is not only related to the company’s inner environmental efforts, but also it is affected by the suppliers’ environmental performance and image. For industries, environmentally responsible manufactu...
متن کاملIntegrated multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) method combined with decision making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) and analytic network process (ANP) in food supplier selection
The analytic network process (ANP) is a relatively new multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) method which can be used to solve supplier selection problem. Because there are different degrees of influence among the criteria, using ANP average method (equal cluster-weighted) to obtain the weighted supermatrix may be inexact. This paper uses an effective solution based on a combined ANP and the de...
