NEAT F-PROMETHEE – A new fuzzy multiple criteria decision making method based on the adjustment of mapping trapezoidal fuzzy numbers

作者:

Highlights:

• Development of the NEAT F-PROMETHEE method that eliminates problems of the Fuzzy PROMETHEE.

• Preparation of a correction mechanism to reduce an approximation error while mapping.

• Verification of the correction mechanism by comparing it with a simple mapping.

• Verification of the NEAT F-PROMETHEE method by solving a fuzzy decision problem.

• Indication of a relationship between the uncertainty of input data and preferences.
