Multiple stakeholders in multi-criteria decision-making in the context of Municipal Solid Waste Management: A review.
TL;DR: Research on the application of MCDA for solving MSWM problems is reviewed with more focus on the studies that have considered multiple stakeholders and offers solutions for such problems, showing that AHP is the most common approach.

GIS-multicriteria decision analysis for landslide susceptibility mapping: comparing three methods for the Urmia lake basin, Iran
TL;DR: In this article, three different GIS-MCDA methods were applied to landslide susceptibility mapping for the Urmia lake basin in northwest Iran, and the landslide susceptibility maps were produced based on weighted overly techniques including analytic hierarchy process (AHP), weighted linear combination (WLC) and ordered weighted average (OWA).

GIS-based site selection methodology for hybrid renewable energy systems: A case study from western Turkey
TL;DR: In this article, a methodology for site selection of hybrid wind solar-PV renewable energy systems is introduced, which is based on a comprehensive review of the literature, current Turkish laws and legislation, and interviews with the General Directorate of Electrical Power Resources Survey and Development Administration of Turkey.

A review of multi-criteria decision-making applications to solve energy management problems: Two decades from 1995 to 2015
Abbas Mardani,Edmundas Kazimieras Zavadskas,Zainab Khalifah,Norhayati Zakuan,Ahmad Jusoh,Khalil Md Nor,Masoumeh Khoshnoudi +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide a review on the application and use of decision making approaches in regard to energy management problems, from 1995 to 2015 in 72 important journals, which chosen from the Web of Science database and in this regard, the systematic and meta-analysis method called PRISMA has been proposed.

A GIS based spatially-explicit sensitivity and uncertainty analysis approach for multi-criteria decision analysis
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that further improvement in the accuracy of GIS-based MCDA can be achieved by employing an integrated uncertainty–sensitivity analysis approach, in which the uncertainty of landslide susceptibility model is decomposed and attributed to model's criteria weights.

The Analytic Hierarchy Process
Thomas L. Saaty,Kevin P. Kearns +1 more
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.

Fuzzy sets as a basis for a theory of possibility
TL;DR: The theory of possibility described in this paper is related to the theory of fuzzy sets by defining the concept of a possibility distribution as a fuzzy restriction which acts as an elastic constraint on the values that may be assigned to a variable.

On ordered weighted averaging aggregation operators in multicriteria decisionmaking
TL;DR: A type of operator for aggregation called an ordered weighted aggregation (OWA) operator is introduced and its performance is found to be between those obtained using the AND operator and the OR operator.

A land use and land cover classification system for use with remote sensor data
TL;DR: The framework of a national land use and land cover classification system is presented for use with remote sensor data and uses the features of existing widely used classification systems that are amenable to data derived from re-mote sensing sources.
