Extended TODIM method for hybrid multiple attribute decision making problems

TLDR
An extended TODIM method is proposed to solve the hybrid MADM problem and two numerical examples are used to illustrate the use of the proposed method.
Abstract
TODIM (an acronym in Portuguese of interactive and multiple attribute decision making) is a method for solving the multiple attribute decision making (MADM) problem considering decision maker's (DM's) behavior, in which the attribute values are in the format of crisp numbers. It cannot be used to handle hybrid MADM problems with various formats of attribute values. In this paper, an extended TODIM method is proposed to solve the hybrid MADM problem. First, three formats of attribute values (crisp numbers, interval numbers and fuzzy numbers) are expressed in the format of random variables with cumulative distribution functions. Then, according to the concept of the classical TODIM method, the gain and loss matrices concerning each attribute are constructed by calculating the gain and loss of each alternative relative to the others. Further, by calculating the dominance degree of each alternative over the others, the overall value of each alternative can be obtained to rank the alternatives. Finally, two numerical examples are used to illustrate the use of the proposed method.

Prospect theory: an analysis of decision under risk

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a critique of expected utility theory as a descriptive model of decision making under risk, and develop an alternative model, called prospect theory, in which value is assigned to gains and losses rather than to final assets and in which probabilities are replaced by decision weights.

Advances in prospect theory: cumulative representation of uncertainty

TL;DR: Cumulative prospect theory as discussed by the authors applies to uncertain as well as to risky prospects with any number of outcomes, and it allows different weighting functions for gains and for losses, and two principles, diminishing sensitivity and loss aversion, are invoked to explain the characteristic curvature of the value function and the weighting function.
