Multiple-attribute group decision making with different formats of preference information on attributes.

Interval utility values, interval fuzzy preference relations, and interval multiplicative preference relations are three common uncertain-preference formats used by decision-makers to provide their preference information in the process of decision making under fuzziness. This paper is devoted in investigating multiple-attribute group-decision-making problems where the attribute values are not precisely known but the value ranges can be obtained, and the decision-makers provide their preference information over attributes by three different uncertain-preference formats i.e., 1) interval utility values; 2) interval fuzzy preference relations; and 3) interval multiplicative preference relations. We first utilize some functions to normalize the uncertain decision matrix and then transform it into an expected decision matrix. We establish a goal-programming model to integrate the expected decision matrix and all three different uncertain-preference formats from which the attribute weights and the overall attribute values of alternatives can be obtained. Then, we use the derived overall attribute values to get the ranking of the given alternatives and to select the best one(s). The model not only can reflect both the subjective considerations of all decision-makers and the objective information but also can avoid losing and distorting the given objective and subjective decision information in the process of information integration. Furthermore, we establish some models to solve the multiple-attribute group-decision-making problems with three different preference formats: 1) utility values; 2) fuzzy preference relations; and 3) multiplicative preference relations. Finally, we illustrate the applicability and effectiveness of the developed models with two practical examples.     

Extension of the expected value method for multiple attribute decision making with fuzzy data

This paper is concerned with a method for multiple attribute decision making under fuzzy environment, in which the preference values take the form of triangular fuzzy numbers. Based on the idea that the attribute with a larger deviation value among alternatives should be assessed a larger weight, a linear programming model about the maximal deviation of weighted attribute values is established. Therefore, an approach to deal with attribute weights which are completely unknown is developed by using expected value operator of fuzzy variables. Furthermore, in order to make a decision or choose the optimum alternative, an expected value method is presented under the assumption that attribute weights are known fully. The method not only avoids complex comparing for fuzzy numbers, but also has the advantages of simple operation and easy calculation. Finally, a numerical example is used to illustrate the proposed approach at the end of this paper.     

An interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy multiattribute group decision making framework with incomplete preference over alternatives

This article proposes a framework to handle multiattribute group decision making problems with incomplete pairwise comparison preference over decision alternatives where qualitative and quantitative attribute values are furnished as linguistic variables and crisp numbers, respectively. Attribute assessments are then converted to interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (IVIFNs) to characterize fuzziness and uncertainty in the evaluation process. Group consistency and inconsistency indices are introduced for incomplete pairwise comparison preference relations on alternatives provided by the decision-makers (DMs). By minimizing the group inconsistency index under certain constraints, an auxiliary linear programming model is developed to obtain unified attribute weights and an interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy positive ideal solution (IVIFPIS). Attribute weights are subsequently employed to calculate distances between alternatives and the IVIFPIS for ranking alternatives. An illustrative example is provided to demonstrate the applicability and effectiveness of this method.     

Enhancing PROMETHEE method with intuitionistic fuzzy soft sets

The notion of intuitionistic fuzzy soft sets (IFSSs) provides an effective tool for solving multiple attribute decision making with intuitionistic fuzzy information. The most crucial issue in decision making based on IFSSs is how to derive the ranking of alternatives from the information quantified in terms of intuitionistic fuzzy values. In this study, we propose a new extension of the preference ranking organization method for enrichment evaluation (PROMETHEE), by taking advantage of IFSSs. In addition to presenting a myriad of new notions, such as intuitionistic fuzzy membership (or nonmembership) deviation matrices, intuitionistic fuzzy membership (or nonmembership) preference matrices, and aggregated intuitionistic fuzzy preference matrices, we put more emphasis on the construction of three distinct preference structures and related utility functions on the corresponding weakly ordered sets by considering the positive, negative, and net flows of the alternatives based on the aggregated intuitionistic fuzzy preference matrix. We present a new algorithm for solving multiple attribute decision-making problems with the extended PROMETHEE method based on IFSSs. Moreover, a benchmark problem concerning risk investment is investigated to give a comparative analysis and show the feasibility of our approach.     

Nonlinear optimization models for multiple attribute group decision making with intuitionistic fuzzy information

Intuitionistic fuzzy numbers are very useful for experts to depict in depth their fuzzy preference information over objects. In this work, we investigate multiple attribute group decision‐making problems in which the attribute values provided by experts are expressed in intuitionistic fuzzy numbers, each of which is composed of a membership degree, a nonmembership degree and a hesitancy degree, and the weight information about both the experts and the attributes is to be determined. We first make different types of attribute values uniform so as to facilitate interattribute comparisons and employ the simple additive weighting method to fuse all the individual opinions into the group one. We then develop two nonlinear optimization models, one minimizing the divergence between each individual opinion and the group one, and the other minimizing the divergence among the individual opinions, from which two exact formulae can be obtained to derive the weights of experts. Similarly, from the viewpoint of maximizing group consensus, we establish a nonlinear optimization model based on all the individual intuitionistic fuzzy decision matrices to determine the weights of attributes. The simple additive weighting method is used to aggregate all the intuitionistic fuzzy attribute values corresponding to each alternative, and then the score function and the accuracy function are employed to rank and select the given alternatives. Moreover, we extend all the above results to interval intuitionistic fuzzy situations, and finally apply the developed models to an air‐condition system selection problem. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
