-This study presents an evaluation model for purchasing life insurance and annuity insurance using analytical hierarchy process (AHP) and fuzzy logic. Four factors are considered as the inputs of the proposed model including age, annual income, educational level and risk preference. To build the model, we interviewed five experts with at least three years of working experience in an insurance c...

Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP), as a multiple criteria decision making tools especially in the problems with spatial nature or GIS-based. In addition this study treats the steps AHP, its manner to apply and its weaknesses and strengths and ultimately the fuzzy modified Analytical Hierarchy Process (FAHP) which is proposed after that the concepts like of fuzziness, uncertainty and vagueness ...

This paper describes the development of the Army Health Policy (AHP), which is a key component of the Army Human Resources Strategy (AHRS). The work on the AHP provided an opportunity for a fundamental review of the delivery of health support to the Army. The AHP will provide the strategic framework by which the Army will ensure the health of its workforce and, where appropriate, their dependen...

In this paper we combine Real Options (ROs), Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and zero-one Goal Programming (ZOGP) in an integrated decision analysis framework for valuing and prioritizing a portfolio of ICT infrastructure investments. It is the first time that ROs are integrated with AHP and ZOGP providing a single multi-objective multi-criteria model, called GROAHP. Finally, a case illustrati...

Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is very popular method in the field of decision-making today. While one of the most natural extensions of AHP using fuzzy theory is to employ a reciprocal matrix with fuzzy-valued entries, some of the present authors proposed the fuzzy constraint-based approach before. In this paper, we consider about weights for fuzzy constraint-based approach and propose a kin...

The article deals with the application of AHP method to the development of the ranking of Lublin and Lviv Provinces based on the condition of innovativeness in companies. The final results of a survey are presented. A multi-criterion analysis in hierarchical order compatible with AHP method is adopted. In order to decide on the preferences of compared variants, the distance between linguistic v...

Neutron diffraction profiles for cellulose from different sources were compared before and after alkaline hydrogen peroxide (AHP) treatment. It was found that AHP treatment did not cause detectable changes in the structure of highly polymerized cellulose. In measurements on wheat straw, peaks were observed at the angles characteristic of pure cellulose. Changes, with AHP treatment, of the inten...
