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 ...

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...

The fuzzy VIKOR method has been developed to solve fuzzy multicriteria problem with conflicting and noncommensurable (different units) criteria. This method solves problem in a fuzzy environment where both criteria and weights could be fuzzy sets. The triangular fuzzy numbers are used to handle imprecise numerical quantities. Fuzzy VIKOR is based on the aggregating fuzzy merit that represents d...

Plant location selection is a multi-criteria decision problem and has a strategic importance for many companies. The aim of this study is to propose a fuzzy approach for Plant location selection. This paper is based on a fuzzy VIKOR (Serbian: Vlsekriterijumsko Kompromisno Rangiranje) method. In this method, the ratings of various alternatives versus various subjective criteria and the weights o...

In this paper, we consider the problem of bus selection for public transportation using a hybrid multicriteria decision making approach. The problem includes several conflicting factors which are economic, social, and technological factors. The integrated approach brings the flexibility of fuzzy AHP and simplicity of fuzzy VIKOR methodology together. To demonstrate the applicability of the meth...

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...

Since it was firstly introduced by Torra and Narukawa (The 18th IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems, Jeju Island, Korea, 2009, pp. 1378–1382), the hesitant fuzzy set has attracted more and more attention due to its powerfulness and efficiency in representing uncertainty and vagueness. This paper extends the classical VIKOR (vlsekriterijumska optimizacija i kompromisno resenje in serb...

Supplier selection is a complex multiple criteria decision-making (MCDM) problem, which considers a number of alternative suppliers as well as conflicting and noncommensurable criteria. Considering the fact that it is difficult to precisely determine criteria weights and the ratings of alternatives on each criterion in real-life situations, the VIKOR (VIsekriterijumska optimizacija i KOmpromisn...

Abstract: Optimal siting of electric vehicle charging stations (EVCSs) is crucial to the sustainable development of electric vehicle systems. Considering the defects of previous heuristic optimization models in tackling subjective factors, this paper employs a multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) framework to address the issue of EVCS siting. The initial criteria for optimal EVCS siting are se...

Interval type-2 fuzzy set (IT2FS) offers interesting avenue to handle high order information and uncertainty in decision support system (DSS) when dealing with both extrinsic and intrinsic aspects of uncertainty. Recently, multiple attribute decision making (MADM) problems with interval type-2 fuzzy information have received increasing attentions both from researchers and practitioners. As a re...
