Determining the importance weights for the customer requirements in QFD using a fuzzy AHP with an extent analysis approach

TL;DR: In this paper, a fuzzy AHP with an extent analysis approach is proposed to determine the importance weights for the customer requirements, which can improve the imprecise ranking of customer requirements inherited from studies based on the conventional AHP.

Prioritization of human capital measurement indicators using fuzzy AHP

TL;DR: A methodology based on the extent fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is proposed and it is indicated that ''creating results by using knowledge', ''employees' skills index'', ''sharing and reporting knowledge'', and ''succession rate of training programs'' are the four most important measurement indicators for the HC in Turkey.

Construction projects selection and risk assessment by fuzzy AHP and fuzzy TOPSIS methodologies

TL;DR: The results showed that these novel methodologies are able to assess the overall risks of construction projects, select the project that has the lowest risk with the contribution of relative importance index, and have potential applications in the future.

The Analytic Hierarchy Process

TL;DR: Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) as mentioned in this paper is a systematic procedure for representing the elements of any problem hierarchically, which organizes the basic rationality by breaking down a problem into its smaller constituent parts and then guides decision makers through a series of pairwise comparison judgments to express the relative strength or intensity of impact of the elements in the hierarchy.

A fuzzy extension of Saaty's priority theory

TL;DR: 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.
