Method of inclination measurement for interval multi-attribute decision-making
Shu‐Ping Wan · Computer Engineering and Applications Journal · 2009
A new method is proposed for interval multi-attribute decision-making,in which the attribute values are in the form of interval numbers.The concepts of interval ideal point and inclination of each alternative on the interval ideal point are defined. The method uses the inclination to define the relative closeness between decision alternative and ideal point.The priority is given by the relative closeness.This method can avoid comparing and ranking interval numbers.It is straightforward and can be performed on computer easily.Finally,an illustrative example is given to demonstrate the feasibility and practicability of the proposed method.
