An extended VIKOR method based on prospect theory for multiple attribute decision making under interval type-2 fuzzy environment

Published: 01 September 2015 Publication History

Abstract

Interval type-2 fuzzy set (IT2FS) offers interesting avenue to handle high order information and uncertainty in decision support system (DSS) when dealing with both extrinsic and intrinsic aspects of uncertainty. Recently, multiple attribute decision making (MADM) problems with interval type-2 fuzzy information have received increasing attentions both from researchers and practitioners. As a result, a number of interval type-2 fuzzy MADM methods have been developed. In this paper, we extend the VIKOR (VlseKriterijumska Optimizacijia I Kompromisno Resenje, in Serbian) method based on the prospect theory to accommodate interval type-2 fuzzy circumstances. First, we propose a new distance measure for IT2FS, which is comes as a sound alternative when being compared with the existing interval type-2 fuzzy distance measures. Then, a decision model integrating VIKOR method and prospect theory is proposed. A case study concerning a high-tech risk evaluation is provided to illustrate the applicability of the proposed method. In addition, a comparative analysis with interval type-2 fuzzy TOPSIS method is also presented.
