The place of AHP method among Multi Criteria Decision Making methods in forest management

Risk management in urban tunnels using methods of game theory and multi-criteria decision-making

In general, underground spaces are associated with high risks because of their high uncertainty in geotechnical environments. Since most accidents and incidents in these structures are often associated with uncertainty, the development of risk analysis and management methods and prevention of accidents are essential. A deeper recognition of the factors affecting the implementation process can p...

An AHP-Delphi Multi-Criteria Decision Making Model with Application to Environmental Decision-Making

Multi-criteria decision making based on DSmT-AHP

In this paper, we present an extension of the multicriteria decision making based on the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) which incorporates uncertain knowledge matrices for generating basic belief assignments (bba’s). The combination of priority vectors corresponding to bba’s related to each (sub)criterion is performed using the Proportional Conflict Redistribution rule no. 5 proposed in Dezer...

Decision making in forest management with consideration of stochastic prices

  The optimal harvesting policy is calculated as a function of the entering stock, the price state, the harvesting cost, and the rate of interest in the capital market. In order to determine the optimal harvest schedule, the growth function and stumpage price process are estimated for the Swedish mixed species forests. The stumpage price is assumed to follow a stochastic Markov process. A stoch...

The Coupled Method Fuzzy-AHP Applys to Solve Multi-criteria Decision Making Problems

-The multi-criteria decision making (MCDM)problems with fuzzy preference information on alternatives are essential problems of the importance of weighting and ranking. In order to solve this problem, Analytical Hierarchy Process(AHP) and fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method are coupled to form a new approach named Fuzzy-AHP.This method is different from the traditional FAHP,which used to facil...

Using Multi Criteria Decision Making Methods for Evaluation the Entrepreneurship and Innovation Indicators

This paper offered a procedure for ranking the entrepreneurial and innovative indicators using Multi Criteria Decision Making (MCDM), taking into account three individual,organizational and cultural dimensions simultaneously in decision making procedure. Henceforward, by using the Meta synthesis framework, the form of group classification of indicators from afinding’s combination was suggested ...
