AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) has been widely used in decision making. Inner dependence method AHP is one technique even in case of criteria have dependency. However using original AHP or Inner dependence method, the results often lose reliability because the comparison matrix does not always have sufficient consistency. In these cases, fuzzy representation for weighting criteria and alterna...

The decision to recruit manpower in an organization requires clear identification of the criteria (attributes) that distinguish successful from unsuccessful performance. The choice of appropriate attributes or criteria in different levels of hierarchy in an organization is a multi-criteria decision problem and therefore multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) techniques can be used for prioritiza...

The fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (fuzzy AHP) and fuzzy decision making trial and evaluation laboratory (fuzzy DEMATEL) have been used to obtain weights for criteria and relationships among dimensions and criteria respectively. The twomethods could be integrated since it serves different purposes. Previous research suggested that the weights of criteria and the relationships among dimensions...

This article compares two fuzzy approaches to land suitability evaluations, Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Ideal Point. The methods were evaluated using a case study which models the opportunities for wheat production under irrigation conditions in the north-western region of Jeffara Plain, Libya. A number of relevant soil and landscape criteria were identified through a review of the l...

The Fuzzy Analytic Network Process (ANP) is generally used for solving multicriteria decision making (MCDM) problems by considering the pairwise comparison between criteria/sub-criteria, and inner/outer dependencies among criteria. Linguistic expressions are used for experts’ judgements, and these judgements are imprecise and vague. Hence, incorporating fuzziness with multi-criteria decision ma...

In fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (fuzzy AHP) method, it is difficult to ensure a consistent pairwise comparison. Furthermore, establishing a ...

This research was carried out to evaluate the capability of a combined fuzzy logic-based approach and analytical hierarchy process (AHP) for potassium saturation percentage (KSP) estimation in some calcareous soils of southern Iran. Based on a reconnaissance soil survey, 52 soil series were selected and different physical and chemical properties were determined. Five soil parameters including c...

: With the fast development of the E-commerce, it becomes critical to set up an E-commerce Evaluation criteria system. Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process is a new multi-criteria evaluation method evolved from Saaty’s AHP. This paper aimed to find out the key factors that affect success in E-commerce using fuzzy AHP, and give an evaluation method for E-commerce in order to help researches and mana...

This study deals with prioritization of sustainable supply chin measurement indicators which are calculated by using Chang’s extent method of Fuzzy AHP. Within the model of Fuzzy AHP, main attributes, sub attributes and indicators are defined. The weights of them are calculated from the answers of questionnaire, which is formed for pair-wise comparison of attributes and indicators. The results ...

The paper proposes an evaluation model based on fuzzy AHP to help users select CAS that best matches their requirements. The subjectiveness and imprecision of the evaluation process are modeled using linguistic terms. The evaluation criteria framework based on the usability and problem solving capability of CAS is developed. Fuzzy (AHP) is employed to determine the relative importance weights o...
