Money laundering is among the most common financial crimes that negatively affect countries' economies and hurt their social and political relations. With the increasing growth of e-banking and the increase in electronic financial transactions, the identification of money laundering methods and behaviors has become more complex; because money launderers, by accessing the Internet and using new ...

Hesitant fuzzy set (HFS), which allows the membership degree of an element to a set represented by several possible values, is considered as a powerful tool to express uncertain information in the process of multi-attribute decision making (MADM) problems. In this paper, we develop a novel approach based on TOPSIS (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) and the maximizi...

Multi-Attribute Decision Making (MADM) is used to select the best alternative from multi-alternatives based on multi-attribute (fashion material) and multi-criteria (sustainable fashion). Multi-alternatives are cotton, linen, silk, wool, acrylic, nylon, polyester, rayon, spandex, mixed. Multi-attributes material, texture, color, characteristic, comfort, wearability. Multi-criteria material fibe...

This study proposes a new approach for single-sampling plan by determining sample size and acceptance number. The proposed approach is based on a two-step methodology. In the first step: quality management step, different single sampling inspection plans were generated by running an optimization model for different possible acceptance numbers. While, in the second step: Multi-Attribute Decision...

Multiple attribute decision making is an important part of modern decision science. It has been extensively applied to various problems. There are several methods for this decision making problem. Based on TOPSIS method and Gray relational analysis method, this paper presents a combined approach to the multi­attribute group decision making. Finally, an...

Abstract The aim of this paper is to investigate the multiple attribute decision making problems with linguistic information, in which the information about attribute weights is incompletely known, and the attribute values take the form of linguistic variables. We develop a new method to solve linguistic MADM with incomplete weight. In order to get the weight vector of the attribute, we establi...

In Human Computer Interaction (HCI), the computer has to take many decisions to react in a way that human wants. As decisions in HCI are diverse, contradictory, and hard to measure it is hard to study and model them, e.g. finding a mapping from the users preferences to adaptions of the user interface. To ease these tasks, we developed MADL (Multi-Attribute Decision Language). This programming l...

In Gal and Hanne [Eur. J. Oper. Res. 119 (1999) 373] the problem of using several methods to solve a multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) problem with linear objective functions after dropping nonessential objectives is analyzed. It turned out that the solution does not need be the same when using various methods for solving the system containing the nonessential objectives or not. In this ...
