A Reconciliation Among Discrete Compromise Solutions

TLDR
In this paper, a credibility measurement of distance function and a broader concept of the axiom of choice in order to reconcile disagreement among compromise solutions is introduced, and the credibility measurement is used to reconcile disagreements among compromise solution.
Abstract
The application of compromise solutions to discrete multi-objective problems brings about some technical flexibilities, such as the selection of distance function for computing both normalized attribute ratings and distances between two alternatives, and the choice between the ideal and negative-ideal alternatives for implementing the axiom of choice These flexibilities are undesirable, since the method may yield conflicting preference-alternative rankings, depending on parameter choice This paper introduces a credibility measurement of distance function and takes a broader concept of the axiom of choice in order to reconcile disagreement among compromise solutions

Best-worst multi-criteria decision-making method

TL;DR: In this article, a new method, called best-worst method (BWM) is proposed to solve multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) problems, in which a number of alternatives are evaluated with respect to different criteria in order to select the best alternative(s).

Extended VIKOR method in comparison with outranking methods

TL;DR: The VIKOR method as mentioned in this paper was developed to solve MCDM problems with conflicting and noncommensurable (different units) criteria, assuming that compromising is acceptable for conflict resolution, the decision maker wants a solution that is the closest to the ideal, and the alternatives are evaluated according to all established criteria.
