Personnel evaluation is an important process in human resource management. The multicriteria nature and the presence of both qualitative and quantitative factors make it considerably more complex. In this study, a fuzzy hybrid multicriteria decision-making (MCDM) model is proposed to personnel evaluation. This model solves personnel evaluation problem in a fuzzy environment where both criteria ...

The VIKOR method was developed to solve MCDM problems with conflicting and noncommensurable (different units) criteria, assuming that compromising is acceptable for conflict resolution, the decision maker wants a solution that is the closest to the ideal, and the alternatives are evaluated according to all established criteria. This method focuses on ranking and selecting from a set of alternat...

Neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy set is the generalization of neutrosophic set and the hesitant fuzzy set, which can easily express the uncertain, incomplete and inconsistent information in cognitive activity, and the VIKOR (from Serbian:VIseKriterijumska Optimizacija I Kompromisno Resenje) method is an effective decision making tool which can select the optimal alternative by the maximum ‘‘group ut...

How to select the suitable suppliers in the supply chain is critical for an organization’s success and has attracted much attention of both researchers and practitioners. Supplier selection can be regarded as a complex group multiple criteria decision making problem requiring consideration of a number of alternative suppliers and quantitative and qualitative criteria. Additionally, decision mak...

The VIKOR method was introduced as a Multi-Attribute Decision Making (MADM) method to solve discrete decision-making problems with incommensurable and conflicting criteria. This method focuses on ranking and selecting from a set of alternatives based on the particular measure of “closeness” to the “ideal” solution. The multi-criteria measure for compromise ranking is developed from the l−p metr...

The multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) methods VIKOR and TOPSIS are based on an aggregating function representing ‘‘closeness to the ideal’’, which originated in the compromise programming method. In VIKOR linear normalization and in TOPSIS vector normalization is used to eliminate the units of criterion functions. The VIKOR method of compromise ranking determines a compromise solution, p...

Different wind power projects have different external economics level, the practical evaluation on which can provide reference for wind power projects selection and qualify the role of completed projects. In this paper, the external economies of wind power engineering projects were evaluated by employing VIKOR method. The basic theory of VIKOR method was firstly introduced, and then the empiric...

In order to solve the group decision making problems with ordinal interval preference information, a new decision method is proposed based on VIKOR method. The VIKOR method of compromise ranking determines a compromise solution, providing a maximum “group utility” for the “majority” and a minimum of an “individual regret” for the “opponent”, which is an effective tool in multi-attribute decisio...

Diabetic kidney disease is an important complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and has an economic impact in growth due to the increasing prevalence of T2DM. Identification of diabetic kidney disease risk factors is a priority for both the patient and the healthcare system. The aim of our study was to rank the risk factors using VIKOR method applied on a database with patients with T2D...

Most decision making problems can be considered as multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) problems, and should be solved by MCDM method. The main advantage of MCDM is that it can give managers many dimensions to consider related elements, and evaluate all possible options under variable degrees. This paper applied fuzzy set theory and a compromised MCDM method VIKOR method to evaluate the ser...
