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.

Fuzzy AHP Approach to TQM Strategy Evaluation

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated TQM strategic factors in order to determine the critical success factors in environmental uncertainty Fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) is the proposed research methodology to discuss and tackle the different decision criteria like effective leadership, people management, customer focus, strategic plan and process management.

Modification to Fuzzy Extent Analysis method and its performance analysis

TL;DR: This study shows that modified FEA method performs significantly better than its original model and thus can lead to more effective decision making.

Entropy Application to Improve Construction Finance Decisions

TL;DR: In this article, a fuzzy and entropy-based mathematical approach is employed to solve the weighting problem of the objective functions in an overall cash-flow model, and the results indicate that the overall before-tax profit was HK$ 0.11 millions lower after the introduction of appropriate weights.

Group evidential reasoning approach for MADA under fuzziness and uncertainties

TL;DR: The weights of attributes and utilities of evaluation grades are considered to be fuzzy numbers for the evidential reasoning approach and the weighted arithmetic mean method is proposed to solve multiple attribute decision analysis problems.

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.

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.

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.
