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:

"Uncertainty in Risk Assessment, Risk Management, and Decision Making"
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify four primary sources of uncertainty in risk assessment and management: uncertainties about definitions, uncertainties about scientific facts, uncertainty about risk perceptions and attitudes, and uncertainties about values.

An analytic hierarchy process approach with linguistic variables for selection of an R&D strategic alliance partner
TL;DR: This study establishes a mechanism for partner selection that emphasizes the relation of criteria and motivation and proposes a calculation procedure for the weighting and evaluation processes under a vague environment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fuzzy dynamic risk-based maintenance investment optimization for offshore process facilities
TL;DR: Results indicate that the developed methodology estimates the risk more accurately, which enhances the reliability of future process operations, and provides a risk-based maintenance plan for future safety investment analysis.

Identification of dominant risk factor involved in spread of COVID-19 using hesitant fuzzy MCDM methodology
Neha Ghorui,Arijit Ghosh,Sankar Prasad Mondal,Mohd Yazid Bajuri,Ali Ahmadian,Soheil Salahshour,Massimiliano Ferrara +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated risk factors involved in the spread of COVID-19 and ranked them in terms of contagion using Fuzzy analytic hierarchical process (FAHP) and Hesitant fuzzy sets (HFS) to identify the major risk factors.

Limited Rationality and Its Quantification Through the Interval Number Judgments With Permutations
TL;DR: By analyzing the consistency of interval multiplicative reciprocal comparison matrices, it is observed that the interval number judgements are inconsistent and the concepts of approximation-consistency and acceptable approximation- Consistency of interval multiplier reciprocal comparison Matrices are proposed.

Fuzzy Sets and Systems: Theory and Applications
Didier Dubois,Henri Prade +1 more
TL;DR: This book effectively constitutes a detailed annotated bibliography in quasitextbook style of the some thousand contributions deemed by Messrs. Dubois and Prade to belong to the area of fuzzy set theory and its applications or interactions in a wide spectrum of scientific disciplines.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI
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.
