The purpose of this article is twofold: first to introduce a multi attribute decision making model for radio frequency identification system consisting of four main criteria and five alternatives, and second to develop and solve the proposed fuzzy TOPSIS problem. Author presented an effective fuzzy multi-criteria method based upon the fuzzy model and the concepts of positive ideal and negative ...

In this study, we first introduce the fuzzy sets, soft sets, fuzzy soft sets and their related properties. We then present the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) that is one of classical Multiple Attribute Decision Making (MADM) methods. We also present the Grey Relation Method. In the main part of this study, we extend the TOPSIS method on the fuzzy soft se...

The interval neutrosophic set (INS) can be easier to express the incomplete, indeterminate and inconsistent information, and TOPSIS is one of the most commonly used and effective method for multiple attribute decision making, however, in general, it can only process the attribute values with crisp numbers. In this paper, we have extended TOPSIS to INS, and with respect to the multiple attribute...

In classification problems when multiples algorithms are applied to different benchmarks a difficult issue arises, i.e., how can we rank the algorithms? In machine learning it is common run the algorithms several times and then a statistic is calculated in terms of means and standard deviations. In order to compare the performance of the algorithms, it is very common to employ statistical tests...

The study of the effective factors for forest fire prevention policy can help to reduce long term extensive environmental damage. In other words, management is result a complex interaction many criteria. present aims analyze most criteria Arasbaran forest, Iran, based on Technique Order Performance by Similarity Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) and Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) methods. five top optim...

This paper proposes a method for ranking decision making units (DMUs) using some of the multiple criteria decision making / multiple attribute decision making          (MCDM /MADM) techniques, namely, interval analytic hierarchy process (IAHP)          and the technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution (TOPSIS).          Since the efficiency score of unity is assigned to ...

Most decision-making processes are dynamic. Critical decisions require multiple and interrelated time-constrained decisions within strongly uncertain and so complex scenarios. The proposed methodology (mixing Delphi, Fuzzy Cognitive Maps and TOPSIS) and is a step forward with regard to the classic tools used in scenarios-based decision-support. This proposal allows managing uncertainty for impr...
