This paper discusses the issue of how to solve multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) problems by applying fuzzy logic. Multicriteria decision-making problems often involve a complex decision process in which multiple requirements and fuzzy conditions have to be taken into consideration simultaneously. Fuzzy set theory provides the mathematical technique for the systematic handling of imprecise ...

It is nowadays increasingly realized that environmental and resource problems generally have complicated economie and ecological dimensions. Therefore, there is a clear need for models offering a comprehensible and operational representation of a real-world environmental system. A great variety of quantitative (descriptive and forecasting) models models nas been developed for compound environme...

The Multicriteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) and Geographical Information Systems (GIS) are used to provide more accurate decisions to the decision makers in order to evaluate the effective factors in the natural science. One of the popular algorithm of multicriteria analysis is Ordered Weighted Averaging (OWA). The OWA procedure depends on some parameters, which can be 15 specified by means of f...

In this article we study cooperative multi-choice games with limited cooperation possibilities, represented by an undirected forest on the player set. Players in the game can cooperate if they are connected in the forest. We introduce a new (single-valued) solution concept which is a generalization of the average tree solution defined and characterized by Herings et al. [2008] for TU-games play...

The compromise value is introduced for cooperative games with random payoffs, that is, for cooperative games where the payoff to a coalition of players is a random variable. It is a compromise between utopia payoffs and minimal rights. This solution concept is based on the compromise value for NTU games and the τ -value for TU games. It is shown that the nonempty core of a game is bounded by th...

In this paper, we consider the problem of bus selection for public transportation using a hybrid multicriteria decision making approach. The problem includes several conflicting factors which are economic, social, and technological factors. The integrated approach brings the flexibility of fuzzy AHP and simplicity of fuzzy VIKOR methodology together. To demonstrate the applicability of the meth...

In this paper we consider a multicriteria aggregation model where local utility functions of different sorts are aggregated using Sugeno integrals, and which we refer to as Sugeno utility functions. We propose a general approach to study such functions via the notion of pseudoSugeno integral (or, equivalently, pseudo-polynomial function), which naturally generalizes that of Sugeno integral, and...

We propose a new interval type-2 fuzzy (IT2F) programming method for risky multicriteria decision-making (MCDM) problems with IT2F truth degrees, where the criteria exhibit heterogeneous relationship and decision-makers behave according to bounded rationality. First, we develop technique calculate Banzhaf-based overall perceived utility values of alternatives based on 2-additive measures regret...
