An Improved Fuzzy Mcdm Model Based on Ideal and Anti-ideal Concepts

چکیده
Liaiig presented a fuzzy multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) method based on the concepts of ideal and anti-ideal points. Despite its merits, Liang method has the following limitations: ( i ) the objective criteria are converted into dimensionless indices and the subjective criteria are not converted, which may prevent compatibility for these criteria, (ii) the formulas for converting objective criteria are not reliable, and (iii) an unreliable ranking method, i.e. maximizing set and minimizing set, is applied to rank the fuzzy numbers. This paper applies the Hsu and Chen method and suggests a fuzzy number ranking method to propose an improved fuzzy MCDM model based on ideal and anti-ideal concepts to overcome the shortcomings of the Liang method. Numerical examples demonstrate the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed ranking method and the improved model, respectively.

A New Compromise Decision-making Model based on TOPSIS and VIKOR for Solving Multi-objective Large-scale Programming Problems with a Block Angular Structure under Uncertainty
This paper proposes a compromise model, based on a new method, to solve the multi-objective large-scale linear programming (MOLSLP) problems with block angular structure involving fuzzy parameters. The problem involves fuzzy parameters in the objective functions and constraints. In this compromise programming method, two concepts are considered simultaneously. First of them is that the optimal ...
متن کاملA Multi-Criteria Analysis Model under an Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Environment with an Application to Production Project Decision Problems
Using Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) to solve complicated decisions often includes uncertainty, which could be tackled by utilizing the fuzzy sets theory. Type-2 fuzzy sets consider more uncertainty than type-1 fuzzy sets. These fuzzy sets provide more degrees of freedom to illustrate the uncertainty and fuzziness in real-world production projects. In this paper, a new multi-criteria ana...
