supplier evaluation and selection is complex which caused by the dynamic and fuzzy environment. current mcdm methods do not consider the nature of the environment that can affect the process of evaluation and ranking. the aim of this study is to propose a dynamic fuzzy hybrid mcdm method for evaluation, ranking and selection. the proposed method employs fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (fahp) f...

Because of the complexity of decision-making environment, the uncertainty of fuzziness and the uncertainty of grey maybe coexist in the problems of multi-attribute group decision making. In this paper, we study the problems of multi-attribute group decision making with hybrid grey attribute data (the precise values, interval numbers and linguistic fuzzy variables coexist, and each attribute val...

triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (tifns) is a special case of intuitionistic fuzzy (if) set and the ranking of tifns is an important problem. the aim of this paper is to develop a new methodology for ranking tifns by using multiattribute decision making methods (madm). in this methodology, the value and ambiguity indices of tifns may be considered as the attributes and the tifns in compa...

The order relation of fuzzy number is important in decision making and optimization modeling, and ranking fuzzy numbers is difficult in nature. Ranking trapezoidal intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (TrIFNs) is more difficult due to the fact that the TrIFNs are a generalization of the fuzzy numbers. The aim of this paper is to develop a new methodology for ranking TrIFNs. We define the value-index an...

the current study set to extend a new vikor method as a compromise ranking approach to solve multiple criteria decision-making (mcdm) problems through intuitionistic fuzzy analysis. using compromise method in mcdm problems contributes to the selection of an alternative as close as possible to the positive ideal solution and far away from the negative ideal solution, concurrently. using atanasso...

Ranking of fuzzy numbers play an important role in decision making, optimization, forecasting. In fuzzy decision making problems fuzzy numbers must be ranked before an action is taken by a decision maker. Chen and Li have proposed on “Representation, ranking, and distance of fuzzy number with exponential membership function using grade mean integration method" by ranking index for ranking expon...

Abstract. The fuzzy set theory has been applied in many fields such as management, engineering etc. In modern management applications ranking using fuzzy numbers are the most important aspect in decision making process. This paper proposes a new method on the incentre of centroids and uses of Euclidean distance to ranking generalized hexagonal fuzzy numbers. We have used a ranking method for or...

in this paper, a novel method for ranking of fuzzy numbers are proposed. in this method, decision maker is defined based on the center of mass at some cuts of a pair of fuzzy numbers in discreet version and center of mass on all of cuts of a pair of fuzzy numbers in continuous version. our method can rank more than two fuzzy numbers simultaneously. also, some properties of methods are described...

This paper suggests  a novel approach for ranking the most applicable fuzzy numbers, i.e.  $LR$-fuzzy numbers. Applying the  $alpha$-optimistic values of a fuzzy number, a preference criterion is proposed for ranking fuzzy numbers using the Credibility index. The main properties of the proposed  preference criterion  are also studied.  Moreover, the proposed method is   applied for ranking fuzz...

species selection based on a new method such as a fuzzy method is one of the most important stages in the successful plantation management planning as choosing a suitable species for the site can be the key to success. this paper is based on a fuzzy extension of the technique or order preference which is similar to ideal solution (topsis) method. the purpose of this paper is to develop fuzzy to...
