Abstract   The Analytic Network Process (ANP) is a generalization of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). The basic structure is an influence network of clusters and nodes contained within the clusters. Priorities are established in the same way they are in the AHP using pairwise comparisons and judgment. Many decision problems cannot be structured hierarchically because they involve the inter...

Classifier combinations are effective techniques for difficult pattern recognition problems such as speech recognition where the combination of differently trained classifiers can produce a more robust phoneme classification on noisy datasets. In this paper we investigate traditional linear combination schemes (e.g. arithmetic mean and least squares methods), and propose a new combiner based on...

Problem statement: Based on the concept of Balanced Scorecard (BSC), this study was intended to assist the establishment of performance evaluation system for social education institutions in transforming phase. Approach: An evidence-based analysis was processed to examine the objectivity of the indicators and the weights of key factors of the current performance evaluation. Results: Based on th...

The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), introduced by Thomas Saaty (1980), is an effective tool for dealing with complex decision making, and may aid the decision maker to set priorities and make the best decision. By reducing complex decisions to a series of pairwise comparisons, and then synthesizing the results, the AHP helps to capture both subjective and objective aspects of a decision. In a...

Hujan yang turun sebagian besar terinfiltrasi ke dalam tanah, dan lainnya akan menjadi banjir khususnya di wilayah Jakarta. Banjir dipengaruhi oleh beberapa faktor seperti curah hujan, tata guna lahan, kemiringan jenis geologi, kerapatan drainase. Faktor-faktor tersebut dikelompokkan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui berpengaruh terhadap Pengelompokan dilakukan menggunakan teknik Analitik Hierark...

With the development of society, high-level applied students have been an urgent demand and the quality of entrepreneurial education of postgraduate has attracted more and more attention. Based on the requirements of universities society and enterprise for the comprehensive ability of postgraduate, we proposed the evaluation index system and used AHP-fuzzy comprehensive evaluation approach, whi...

We focus on a class of multicriteria methods that are commonly used in environmental decision making--those that employ the weighted linear average algorithm (and this includes the popular analytic hierarchy process (AHP)). While we do not doubt the potential benefits of using formal decision methods of this type, we draw attention to the consequences of not using them well. In particular, we h...

The Evaluation of eCRM implementation in most of organizations will witness an increase in efficiency, staff satisfaction, and eventually customer satisfaction. The objective of this paper is to apply and compare the analytic hierarchy process (AHP), Fuzzy AHP and Fuzzy Topsis methods to evaluate the Parsian banks’ readiness in ECRM implementation. Primary data have been collected by means of q...
