TLDR
A fuzzy version of Saaty's pairwise comparison method (1980) extended by de Graan and Lootsma (1981), adapted in such a way, that decision-makers are asked to express their opinions in fuzzy numbers with triangular membership functions.

Integrated Fuzzy Multiple Criteria Decision Making Model for Architect Selection

TL;DR: A fuzzy multi-criteria decision making framework that incorporates imprecise judgments inherent in the personnel selection process is provided and a decision maker is able to trust solutions offered by solution support systems to a greater extent.

An application of fuzzy AHP for evaluating course website quality

TL;DR: An evolution model that integrates triangular fuzzy numbers and analytic hierarchy process to develop a fuzzy evaluation model which prioritized the relative weights of course website quality factors is developed.

On the normalization of interval and fuzzy weights

TL;DR: This paper presents the correct normalization methods for interval and fuzzy weights and offers relevant theorems in support of them and numerical examples are examined to show the correctness of the proposednormalization methods.

Analysis of the assessment factors for renewable energy dissemination program evaluation using fuzzy AHP

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors established the criteria and factors and assessed the importance of each factor using the fuzzy analytical hierarchy process (AHP) method, and a total of seventeen factors were established, including technological, market-related, economic, environmental, and policy-related.

ZBWM: The Z-number extension of Best Worst Method and its application for supplier development

TL;DR: Providing BWM with Z-numbers enables the BWM method to handle the uncertainty of information of a multi-criteria decision and shows that ZBWM results lower inconsistency when compared with BWM.

Paper: Rating and ranking of multiple-aspect alternatives using fuzzy sets

Sjoerd M. Baas, +1 more
- 01 Jan 1977 - 
TL;DR: A method to deal with multiple-alternative decision problems under uncertainty by considering each of these variables as fuzzy quantities, characterized by appropriate membership functions of fuzzy sets induced by mappings is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of fuzzy sets on the same decision space

TL;DR: Methods of evaluating the parameter used in decision-making are given which can be varied to incorporate different utility functions and a new approach is described which overcomes their drawbacks.
Journal ArticleDOI

A procedure for multiple-aspect decision making using fuzzy sets

TL;DR: The qualitative terms of the alternatives are represented quantitatively using fuzzy sots and then the fuzzy optimal alternative is computed and gives the relative merit of each alternative and thus helps in decision making.

Saaty's priority theory and the nomination of a senior professor in operations Research

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors briefly sketch Saaty's priority theory which has been developed to assign weights (priorities) to a multiple of decision criteria via pairwise comparison of the criteria.
