Picture fuzzy set (PFS) is more comprehensive tool than intuitionistic (IFS) for modeling the uncertain decision-making problems. In this paper, a new picture entropy measure proposed and proved that satisfies axiomatic definition of measures sets. Besides this, useful mathematical properties are also investigated. The justification established by discussing its particular cases compares it wit...

results the total art score was equal to 30.07 ± 12.43. data analysis from art illustrated that 74.6% of 240 cases were in high and 13.8% were in medium level of risk. art-electre results revealed that grading and pars naghsh halls were in the best and decoration hall was in the worst ergonomic conditions and should be placed in the top priority of action level. background in this paper, the er...

Outsourcing plays an important role in the success of organizations. One of the risks associated with outsourcing is inappropriate contractor selection which significantly influences the implementation of projects in terms of time, quality, and cost. In this study, we applied multi-criteria decision-making techniques in order to determine the best contractor using criteria such as reputation, o...

This paper presents a new method for multiple criteria ordinal classification (sorting) problems. This type of problem requires the different classes or categories to be pre-defined and ordered, from the best to the worst or from the worst to the best. The actions (not necessarily known a priori) are assigned to the different ordered classes. Several ELECTRE type methods were designed to deal w...

The intention of this article is to perform a brief analysis of portfolio management in Brazil, using research conducted by the Project Management Institute through pmsurvey.org, which provides consolidated information on how companies plan and manage their portfolios and projects. Based on the identification of latent need for improvement in the portfolio management process, this study propose...

This document is the User Manual for the decision support software IRIS Interactive Robustness analysis and parameters' Inference for multicriteria Sorting problems (Version 2). This tool has been built to support the assignment of actions (alternatives, projects, candidates) described by their evaluation (performance) at multiple dimensions (criteria) to a set of predefined ordered categories,...

This paper proposes a novel approach to cope with the multi-criteria group decision-making problems. We give the pairwise comparisons based on the best-worst-method (BWM), which can decrease comparison times. Additionally, our comparison results are determined with the positive and negative aspects. In order to deal with the decision matrices effectively, we consider the elimination and choice ...

Decision making in an uncertain environment is a complex task for decision makers. Fuzzy multi criteria decision making methods are proposed in the literature where the subjective criteria and the weights of all criteria are assessed in linguistic variables since conventional methods cannot take into consideration the subjectivity and uncertainty in the decision process. Fuzzy ELECTRE I (Elimin...
