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.About:

Modeling Groundwater Potential Zone in a Semi-Arid Region of Aseer Using Fuzzy-AHP and Geoinformation Techniques
Javed Mallick,Roohul Abad Khan,Mohd. Ahmed,Saeed AlQadhi,Majed Alsubih,Ibrahim I. Falqi,Mohd. Hasan +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a weighted overlay analysis method using the fuzzy-analytical hierarchy process (FAHP) multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) techniques combined with geoinformation technology was used to explore the groundwater potential zones in the Itwad-Khamis watershed of Saudi Arabia.
Journal ArticleDOI
A stochastic multi-criteria decision analysis for sustainable biomass crop selection
TL;DR: A unique stochastic analytical hierarchy process (AHP) that can handle uncertain information and identify weights of criteria in the MCDM problem is proposed and applied to biomass alternatives including switchgrass, Miscanthus, sugarcane, corn, and wheat.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fuzzy risk assessment of oil and gas offshore wells
TL;DR: The proposed approach could serve as a basis for benchmarking acceptable risks in offshore wells and incorporate new data for updating existing risk estimates.
Comparison of AHP and Fuzzy AHP for the Multi-Criteria Decision Making Processes with Linguistic Evaluations
Aşkın Özdağoğlu,Güzin Özdağoğlu +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the classical AHP and fuzzy AHP on a case study that is constructed for the same hierarchy structure and criteria set, and the results showed that the fuzziness of the decision makers is a significant factor in the performance of the AHP.

Priority mix planning for semiconductor fabrication by fuzzy AHP ranking
He-Yau Kang,Amy H. I. Lee +1 more
TL;DR: An analytical approach is constructed under a fuzzy subjective judgment environment, in which fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (AHP) method with entropy weight is utilized to deal with uncertainty, to generate performance ranking of different priority mixes.

Paper: Rating and ranking of multiple-aspect alternatives using fuzzy sets
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
James F. Baldwin,N.C.F. Guild +1 more
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.
