Applying incomplete preference linguistic relations to criteria for evaluating multimedia authoring system

MCMD problems with fuzzy preference information on alternatives are essential problems of the importance of weighting and ranking. Xu [14] proposed a method with incomplete linguistic preference relations method that decision makers obtain a matrix by choosing a finite and fixed set of alternatives and performing a pairwise comparison based on their different preference and knowledge. The object of this paper is to apply the incomplete linguistic preference relations to a selection of multimedia authoring systems (MAS) on the case studies in [4] by Lai et al. The outcome obtained by incomplete linguistic preference relations almost coincides with that produced by the AHP method, also with the least judgments. Key-Words: fuzzy preference relation, incomplete linguistic preference relations, multimedia authoring system (MAS), multi criteria decision making (MCDM)
