چکیده

The evaluation and selection of a distribution center has been an important issue for a company to upgrade its distribution efficiency and operation performance in order to fulfill the diverse demands of consumer. This paper suggests a maximizing set and minimizing based fuzzy MCDM model to resolve this problem, where ratings of alternatives versus qualitative criteria and the importance weights of all the criteria are assessed in linguistic values represented by fuzzy numbers. Ranking formulae and membership functions for the final fuzzy evaluation values can be clearly developed for better executing the decision making. A numerical is used to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed approach.

A hybrid filter-based feature selection method via hesitant fuzzy and rough sets concepts

High dimensional microarray datasets are difficult to classify since they have many features with small number ofinstances and imbalanced distribution of classes. This paper proposes a filter-based feature selection method to improvethe classification performance of microarray datasets by selecting the significant features. Combining the concepts ofrough sets, weighted rough set, fuzzy rough se...

Soft Computing Based on a Modified MCDM Approach under Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets

The current study set to extend a new VIKOR method as a compromise ranking approach to solve multiple criteria decision-making (MCDM) problems through intuitionistic fuzzy analysis. Using compromise method in MCDM problems contributes to the selection of an alternative as close as possible to the positive ideal solution and far away from the negative ideal solution, concurrently. Using Atanasso...

A New Rule-Based SIR Approach to supplier Selection under Intuitionistic Fuzzy Environments

Multiple Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) aims at giving people a knowledge recommendation concerning a set of objects evaluated from multiple preference-ordered attributes. The Superiority and Inferiority Ranking (SIR) is a generation of the well-known outranking approachPROMETHEE, which is an efficient approach for MCDM. As the traditional MCDM approach, however, it faces the obstacle in handl...
