چکیده

Fuzzy Technique for Order Preference by Similarly to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) is one of the most commonly used approaches in solving numerous multiple criteria decision making problems. It has been widely used in ranking of multiple alternatives with respect to multiple criteria with the superiority of fuzzy set type-1 and subjective weights. Recently, fuzzy TOPSIS has been merged with interval type-2 fuzzy sets and subjective weights for criteria as to handle the wide arrays of vagueness and uncertainty. However, the role of objective weights in this new interval type-2 fuzzy TOPSIS has given considerably less attention. This paper aims to propose a new objective weight for sub-criteria in interval type-2 fuzzy TOPSIS. Instead of using weight for criteria, this paper considers entropy weights for sub-criteria in interval type-2 fuzzy TOPSIS method. An example of supplier selection is used to illustrate the proposed method.

A Fuzzy TOPSIS Decision Making Model with Entropy Weight under Intuitionistic Fuzzy Environment

The theory of intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS) is well suitable to deal with vagueness and hesitancy. In this study, we propose a new fuzzy TOPSIS decision making model using entropy weight for dealing with multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) problems under intuitionistic fuzzy environment. This model allows measuring the degree of satisfiability and the degree of non-satisfiability, respect...

A note on "An interval type-2 fuzzy extension of the TOPSIS method using alpha cuts"

The technique for order of preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) is a method based on the ideal solutions in which the most desirable alternative should have the shortest distance from positive ideal solution and the longest distance from negative ideal solution. Depending on type of evaluations or method of ranking, different approaches have been proposing to calculate distances ...

A Multi-Criteria Analysis Model under an Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Environment with an Application to Production Project Decision Problems

Using Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) to solve complicated decisions often includes uncertainty, which could be tackled by utilizing the fuzzy sets theory. Type-2 fuzzy sets consider more uncertainty than type-1 fuzzy sets. These fuzzy sets provide more degrees of freedom to illustrate the uncertainty and fuzziness in real-world production projects. In this paper, a new multi-criteria ana...
