Multiple criteria decision-making (MCDM) research has developed rapidly and has become a main area of research for dealing with complex decision problems. The purpose of the paper is to explore the performance evaluation model. This paper develops an evaluation model based on the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process and the technique for order performance by similarity to ideal solution, fuzzy TOPS...

Financial problems have been the subject of much research. A widely used approach in recent work on these problems is the use of fuzzy set theory, where fuzzy terms are used to model the uncertain environments. The purpose of this work is to combine the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (AHP) with the portfolio selection problem. More specifically, the decision-making problem is to decide which ...

nowadays, due to the competitive conditions of global market, corporations try to outsource their extraneous processes to third-party suppliers. so, selecting a proper supplier play a significant role in organization success. the supplier selection problem can be viewed as a group decision-making problem with multiple criteria. since in previous researches the inter relationship between criteri...

In this paper, the solution of linear second order equations with fuzzy initialvalues are investigated. The analytic general solutions of them using a rstsolution is founded. The parametric form of fuzzy numbers to solve the secondorder equations is applied. The solutions are searched in four cases. Finallythe example is got to illustrate more and the solutions are shown in gures forfour cases.

Multicriteria decision-making (MCDM) problems often involve a complex decision process in which multiple requirements and fuzzy conditions have to be taken into consideration simultaneously. The existing approaches for solving this problem in a fuzzy environment are complex. Combining the concepts of grey relation and pairwise comparison, a new fuzzy MCDM method is proposed. First, the fuzzy an...

the aim of this study is to evaluate the obstacles due to a dpsir model combined with fuzzy analytic hierarchy process technique. hence, to prioritize the responses regarding the driving forces, pressures, states and impacts, the hierarchy of the model is established. evaluations and prioritization of model results of urban transport situation in tehran have provided a number of necessary issue...

The paper proposes a new approach for tackling the uncertainty and imprecision of the reasoning process while using decision support tools during prenegotiations. The pre-negotiation problem is regarded as decision making under uncertainty, based on multiple criteria of quantitative and qualitative nature, where the imprecise decision-maker’s judgments are represented as fuzzy numbers. A new fu...

Fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (AHP) has been widely used for a variety of applications such as supplier selection, customer requirements assessment and the like. The vast majority of the applications, however, were found avoiding the use of sophisticated approaches for fuzzy AHP such as fuzzy least squares method while using a simple extent analysis for the sake of simplicity. The extent ana...
