Robust Ordinal Regression (ROR) supports Multiple Criteria Decision Process by considering all sets of parameters of an assumed preference model, that are compatible with preference information elicited set of parameters, respectively. In this paper, we propose an extension of ELECTRE and PROMETHEE methods to the case of the hierarchy of criteria, which was never considered before. Then, we ada...

A modified version of the multi-criteria decision aid, ELECTRE III has been developed to account for uncertainty in criteria weightings and threshold values. The new procedure, called ELECTRE-SS, modifies the exploitation phase in ELECTRE III, through a new definition of the pre-order and the introduction of a ranking index (RI). The new approach accommodates cases where incomplete or uncertain...

In this paper, we propose a hybrid fuzzy decision making approach, combining elements of fuzzy-ELECTRE and Fuzzy-TOPSIS, towards a new ranking procedure. The main objective of FETOPSIS is to offer rankings with good alternative discriminatory power to decision makers (DMs). This research work was motivated by a real case study in which multiple attribute decision making techniques were used to ...

This paper proposes a multicriteria model for assessing public bus operation systems based on the ELECTRE method in the city of Eskisehir, Turkey. In this specific problem, public and expert opinions towards the privatization of urban bus lines were collected through a comprehensive survey to determine the best operation system; either by the local authority or private operators. The data colle...

In this paper we describe the data for five real applications of multicriteria methods in the context of environmental problems. The applications are: (1) the choice of a solid waste management system for the Uusimaa region, Finland, (2) for the Jämsä region, Finland, (3) the Oulu region, Finland, (4) locating a waste treatment facility in the Savonlinna region, Finland, and (5) choosing among ...

Urban public transport systems must be economically efficient and additionally environmentally sustainable. Available decision support systems, including multiple criteria models, allow identifying which urban vehicles are acceptable those that should no longer used in friendly cities. Previous research has ranked by applying analytic hierarchy process multi-criteria decision-making from econom...
