Abstract This article contributes to the advancement and evolution of outranking decision-making methodologies, with a novel essay on ELimination Choice Translating REality (ELECTRE) family methods. Its primary target is unfold constituents expound implementation ELECTRE II method for group decision making in complex Pythagorean fuzzy framework. results method. By inception, it intrinsically su...

The selection of students is a complex decision making process, in which multiple selection criteria often need to be considered and where subjectiveness and imprecision are usually present, resulting that fuzzy and imprecise data should be used. This paper formulates the student selection process as a multicriteria decision analysis problem, concretely as a ranking problem, by using the ELECTR...

The ELECTRE family of decision aid methods are well-known approaches in the field of multiple criteria decision aiding (MCDA). Different ELECTRE methods can be used for choice problem, ranking problem and sorting problem respectively. These methods are characterized by outranking relations and exploitation procedures. Different definitions of the outranking relations result in the difference of...

Purpose Making techniques PROMETHEE, direction of research in this emerging field. Design/Methodology/Approach: literature related to MCDM techniques PROMETHEE, ELECTRE, VIKOR and TOPSIS. Literature has been segregated to understand various issues and work related to MCDM techniques PROMETHEE, ELECTRE, VIKOR and TOPSIS. A detailed review is used to sort out the literature and develop the resear...

Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) techniques are gaining popularity in sustainable energy management. The techniques provide solutions to the problems involving conflicting and multiple objectives. Several methods based on weighted averages, priority setting, outranking, fuzzy principles and their combinations are employed for energy planning decisions. A review of more than 90 published pa...

Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) methods are increasingly used to aid decision-making for sustainable development. However, although uncertainty is present in all decision environments, dealing with incomplete and vague information analysis remains a challenge. Our objective simplify the incorporation of scoring alternatives MCDA processes. We modified ELimination Choice Translating REal...

When considering Electre s valued outranking relations, aggregation/disaggregation methodologies have difficulties in taking discordance (veto) into account. We present a partial inference procedure to compute the value of the vetorelated parameters that best restore a set of outranking statements (i.e., examples that an Electre model should restore) provided by a decision maker, given fixed va...

<abstract><p>Many real-world decision-making issues frequently involve competing sets of criteria, uncertainty, and inaccurate information. Some these require the involvement a group decision-makers, where it is necessary to reduce various available individual preferences single collective preference. To enhance effectiveness multi-criteria decisions, popular technique that makes pr...

We introduce the principle of robust ordinal regression to group decision. We consider the main multiple criteria decision methods to which robust ordinal regression has been applied, i.e., UTA and GRIP methods, dealing with choice and ranking problems, UTADIS , dealing with sorting (ordinal classification) problems, and ELECTRE , being an outranking method applying robust ordinal regression to...
