To improve the market competitiveness of enterprises in the manufacturing industry, some of them involve picking the most appropriate strategies among multiple available alternatives. However, no single alternative works is suitable for all evaluation criteria which must be considered during the selection processes. This paper proposes a new hybrid MCDM method using design of experiment (DoE) a...

DS/AHP is a technique for multi-criteria decision making (MCDM), based on the Dempster-Shafer Theory of evidence (DST) and the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). Since its introduction it has been developed and applied by a number of authors, as well as form the foundation for other DST related MCDM techniques. This paper reviews the evolution and impact of DS/AHP, culminating in a critical pers...

Various multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) methods have been proposed to solve diverse applications of decision problems. One of the MCDM methods is additive weighting-based method. However, this method is not explicitly disseminated and its applications are not-well received by many MCDM enthusiasts. This paper presents a review of the applications of simple additive weighting (SAW) and fuz...

Single-valued neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy set (SVNHFS) is a combination of single-valued neutrosophic set and hesitant fuzzy set, and its aggregation tools play an important role in the multiple criteria decision-making (MCDM) process. This paper investigates the MCDM problems in which the criteria under SVNHF environment are in different priority levels. First, the generalized single-valued ne...

We propose a multiple-criteria decision-making (MCDM) method based on Maximum A Posteriori (MAP) estimation to analyze users’ physiological status either normal or abnormal. The decision-making problem is formulated using MAP estimation and is turned out to be MCDM problem given the assumption that all probability density functions (pdfs) follow exponential forms, especially Gaussian. It indica...

Evaluating software quality is an important and essential issue in the development process because it helps to deliver a competitive software product. A decision of selecting the best software based on quality attributes is a type of multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) processes where interactions among criteria should be considered. This paper presents and develops quantitative evaluations b...

Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is a powerful quantitative measurement method in the multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) area. It has been used in banks, manufacturing systems, organizational performance evaluation, and project selection. Despite this widespread usage, many studies argue that rank reversal phenomenon is unpreventable when any AHP method is applied. This paper presents that t...
