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...

Several interactive methods exist to identify nondominated solutions in a Multiple Objective Mixed Integer Linear Program. But what if the Decision Maker is also interested in sorting those solutions (assigning them to pre-established ordinal categories)? We propose an interactive ‘‘branch-and-bound like’’ technique to progressively build the nondominated set, combined with ELECTRE TRI method (...

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...

The aim of this paper is to convince the MultiCriteria Decision Aid (MCDA) and Preference Learning communities to investigate and to contribute in the development of methodologies dedicated to hospital ranking. To do so, we present the French hospital ranking and show how these rankings can be built properly through two existing methods: decision tree and ELECTRE Tri.

AbstractThe purpose of this paper is to implement a methodology based on stakeholder’s judgment with assistance of fuzzy Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) methods to assess the environmental impact. Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) is used as a multi-level decision-making tool taking into consideration human evaluation; it captures the vagueness in ordinal judgments obtained from s...

Introduction/purpose: The paper discusses the selection of most optimal supplier using example an unmanned aircraft when decision maker has data a qualitative nature. Problems that arise in practice suppliers relate to adequate criteria as well way they are evaluated by maker. One ways assessing character is usage linguistic expressions, which gives makers freedom express their position and opi...
