Abstract
This paper proposes a fuzzy group decision-making model based on a logarithm compatibility measure with multiplicative trapezoidal fuzzy preference relations (MTFPRs) based on a continuous ordered weighted geometric averaging (COWGA) operator. New concepts are presented to measure deviation between MTFPR and its expected fuzzy preference relation. Then, an iterative algorithm is developed to help individual MTFPR reach acceptable compatibility. To determine the weights of decision makers, an optimal model is constructed using group logarithm compatibility index COWGA operator. Finally, we illustrate an example to show how it works and compare it with the existing methods. The main advantages of the proposed approach are the following: (1) The COWGA operator makes decision making more flexible; (2) an iterative and convergent algorithm is proposed to improve the compatibility of MTFPR; (3) decision makers’ weights in group decision making are determined by an optimal model based on a logarithm compatibility measure.
