Using improvements to the recently published m-polar fuzzy set (mFS) elimination and choice translating reality-I (ELECTRE-I) approach for calculating criteria weights, selection of a Non-Traditional Machining (NTM) process problem from industry is solved in this research. The weights ELECTRE-I method are evaluated using Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) Revised Simos' method. For ELECTRE fami...

The aim of the following article is to study the process of innovation convergence amongst the Spanish Autonomous Regions. To this end the research has been based on the data analysis from the INE (Spanish National Institute of Statistics) Innovation surveys from 2005 to 2006. The methodology used will allow us to set up an Autonomous Regions Ranking per year, clustering per groups of innovatio...

In the context of a rapid and massive deployment or renewable energy in particular solar photovoltaic, it is necessary to develop methods tools guide this deployment. To end, work proposes multicriteria approach for evaluating suitability building be equipped with photovoltaic (PV) systems (PV suitability). present case, technical (roof complexity), economic (payback period), environmental (CO2...

Outsourcing plays an important role in the success of organizations. One of the risks associated with outsourcing is inappropriate contractor selection which significantly influences the implementation of projects in terms of time, quality, and cost. In this study, we applied multi-criteria decision-making techniques in order to determine the best contractor using criteria such as reputation, o...

Picture fuzzy set (PFS) is more comprehensive tool than intuitionistic (IFS) for modeling the uncertain decision-making problems. In this paper, a new picture entropy measure proposed and proved that satisfies axiomatic definition of measures sets. Besides this, useful mathematical properties are also investigated. The justification established by discussing its particular cases compares it wit...

This paper proposes a novel approach to cope with the multi-criteria group decision-making problems. We give the pairwise comparisons based on the best-worst-method (BWM), which can decrease comparison times. Additionally, our comparison results are determined with the positive and negative aspects. In order to deal with the decision matrices effectively, we consider the elimination and choice ...

Decision making in an uncertain environment is a complex task for decision makers. Fuzzy multi criteria decision making methods are proposed in the literature where the subjective criteria and the weights of all criteria are assessed in linguistic variables since conventional methods cannot take into consideration the subjectivity and uncertainty in the decision process. Fuzzy ELECTRE I (Elimin...

Methods in the Decision Support System (DSS) have their own techniques solving organizational problems. Determining appropriate DSS method with problem is a common difficulty experienced by organizations. The performance of can be measured various ways. This research aims to determine two methods, specifically Technique for Others Preference Similarity Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) and Election at Ch...
