چکیده

Multi-criteria decision making is a sub discipline of operations research that explicitly considers multiple criteria in decision making problems. Several methods have been proposed for solving multicriteria decision making problems (MCDM). The weighted sum method (WSM) is the best known and simplest multi-criteria decision making method for evaluating a number of alternatives in terms of a number of decision criteria. The current Weighted Sum Method helps the decision maker to choose when the scenario is static. However, the time consideration is another significant factor that influences decisions. In this study, a mathematical model is presented for a Dynamic Weighted Sum Method (DWSM). Moreover, optional applications of DWSN are discussed.

A Sensitivity Analysis Approach for Some Deterministic Multi-criteria Decision Making Methods

Often data in multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) problems are imprecise and changeable. Therefore, an important step in many applications of MCDM is to perform a sensitivity analysis on the input data. This paper presents a methodology for performing a sensitivity analysis on the weights of the decision criteria and the performance values of the alternatives expressed in terms of the decisio...

Hesitant q-rung orthopair fuzzy aggregation operators with their applications in multi-criteria decision making

The aim of this manuscript is to present a new concept of hesitant q-rung orthopair fuzzy sets (Hq-ROFSs) by combining the concept of the q-ROFSs as well as Hesitant fuzzy sets. The proposed concept is the generalization of the fuzzy sets, intuitionistic fuzzy sets, hesitant fuzzy sets, and Pythagorean fuzzy sets as well as intuitionistic hesitant fuzzy sets (IHFSs) and hesitant Pythagorean fuz...
