Multicriteria decision analysis (MCDA) involves techniques which relatively recently have received great increase in interest for their capabilities of solving spatial decision problems. One of the most frequently used techniques of MCDA is Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). In the AHP, decision-makers make pairwise comparisons between different criteria to obtain values of their relative import...

Distance and online education have required instructors to acquire new skills competencies for language teaching. This research aimed determine Turkish instructor competencies. It comprised two stages in which Fuzzy Delphi Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) methods were used. In the first stage, 52 under seven categories compiled from literature by applying technique. second AHP method was used...

in this note, we aim to present some properties of the space of all weakly fuzzy bounded linear operators, with the bag and samanta’s operator norm on felbin’s-type fuzzy normed spaces. in particular, the completeness of this space is studied. by some counterexamples, it is shown that the inverse mapping theorem and the banach-steinhaus’s theorem, are not valid for this fuzzy setting. also...

The electronic learning (e-learning) has gradually become more and more important in today’s school in Taiwan. Many colleges and universities offer distance e-learning courses or programs for students. An effective teaching or learning through a distance web e-learning system depends on many factors (or criteria). The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) model is suitable for dealing with the multi...

The credit risk evaluation of corporate bond is one of the difficult and hot research fields in the related research and plays a key role for corporate financing. Based on the fuzzy theory and analytic hierarchy process, a new credit risk evaluation model of corporate bond is presented. First an evaluation indicator system of credit risk of corporate bond is designed through analyzing the chara...

In this study, we present an integrated method of Analytical Hierarchy Process based on interval type-2 fuzzy sets (IT2FAHP) and Technique for Order Performance by Similarity to Ideal Solution based on on interval type-2 fuzzy sets (IT2FTOPSIS). The applicability of the proposed integrated method was performed on a case study of evaluation of life quality for 28 European Union Countries and oth...

This paper was first based on the introduction of the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method and the index system of innovation ability of industrial clusters, and apply the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method to the cluster's innovation capability for the scientific evaluation, then do the practical situation on the Sichuan Cheng du software industry cluster, obtaining the result is consisten...
