Method for uncertain multi-attribute decision-making with preference information in the form of interval numbers complementary judgment matrix

TP3; The uncertain multi-attribute decision-making problems because of the information about attribute weights being known partly, and the decision maker's preference information on alternatives taking the form of interval numbers complementary to the judgment matrix, are investigated.First, the decision-making information, based on the subjective uncertain complementary preference matrix on alternatives is made uniform by using a translation function, and then an objective programming model is established.The attribute weights are obtained by solving the model, thus the overall values of the alternatives are gained by using the additive weighting method.Second, the alternatives are ranked, by using the continuous ordered weighted averaging (C-OWA) operator.A new approach to the uncertain multi-attribute decision-making problems, with uncertain preference information on alternatives is proposed.It is characterized by simple operations and can be easily implemented on a computer.Finally, a practical example is illustrated to show the feasibility and availability of the developed method.
