Choosing the best option out of many available options is always goal to be achieved in all areas. However, parameters (criteria) each alternative are not same, sometimes contradictory. In this situation, choosing an extremely difficult decision for maker. Multi-criteria making (MCDM) ranking alternatives based on criteria alternative. More than one hundred multi-criteria decision-making method...

This paper offered a procedure for ranking the entrepreneurial and innovative indicators using Multi Criteria Decision Making (MCDM), taking into account three individual,organizational and cultural dimensions simultaneously in decision making procedure. Henceforward, by using the Meta synthesis framework, the form of group classification of indicators from afinding’s combination was suggested ...

This study introduces a new multi-criteria group decision-making model in organ transplant transportation networks under uncertain situations. A combined weighting approach is presented to obtain expert weights with various kinds of opinions by integrating similarity measure and subjective judgments experts. Also, the CRITIC given criteria weights. Finally, novel integrated ranking proposed cal...

Abstract. A new method is proposed to solve the interactive group decision making problem in which the preference information takes the form of intuitionistic fuzzy preference relations. Firstly, we aggregate all individual intuitionistic fuzzy preference relations into a collective one. Then, a method to determine the experts’ weights by utilizing the compatibility measures of the individual i...

most of data in multi-attribute decision making (madm) problems are changeable rather than constant and stable. therefore, sensitivity analysis after problem solving can effectively contribute to making accurate decisions. in this paper, we offer a new method for sensitivity analysis in multi-attribute decision making problems in which if the weights of one attribute changes, then we can deter...

Often, data in MCDM problems are imprecise and changeable due to the mandatory participation of human judgement, which is often unclear vague. Hence, selection an appropriate method crucial optimal decision-making. All methods heavily affected by individual or group preferences therefore even a small change can cause rank-reversal. With regular proliferation such their modifications, it importa...

As we know, in evaluating of DMUs some of them might be efficient, so ranking of them have a high significant. One of the ranking methods is cross-efficiency. Cross efficiency evaluation in data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a commonly used skill for ranking decision making units (DMUs). Since, many studies ignore the intra-organizational communication and consider DMUs as a black box. For sign...

Supplier selection is one the main concern in the context of supply chain networks by considering their global and competitive features. Resilient supplier selection as generally new idea has not been addressed properly in the literature under uncertain conditions. Therefore, in this paper, a new multi-criteria group decision-making (MCGDM) model is introduced with interval-valued fuzzy sets (I...

In this paper, instead of the classical approach to the multi-criteria location selection problem, a new approach was presented based on selecting a portfolio of locations. First, the indices affecting the selection of maintenance stations were collected. The K-means model was used for clustering the maintenance stations. The optimal number of clusters was calculated through the Silhou...
