Abstract
In this paper is presented a hybrid model based on the fuzzified Analytical Hierarchical Process (AHP) method and the fuzzified Multi-Attributive Border Approximation Area Comparison (MABAC) method. The FAHP method is used for defining the weight coefficients of the criteria, while the FMABAC method is performed for the ranking of the alternatives. The fuzzification of the AHP method is carried out by defining a variable confidence interval for the values from the Saaty’s scale, which is derived from the comparison in pairs and the degree of certainty of the decision-makers in the comparison they make. The application of the hybrid model is shown on the example of the ranking of the locations for deep wading as a technique of crossing the river by the Serbian Army tank units. Through the paper are elaborated the criteria which condition such choice; also, the application of the method in a particular situation is demonstrated.
Highlights
A modern approach to decision-making increasingly implies the application of several methods with the tendency to exploit positive, i.e. to isolate/reject negative characteristics that different decision-making methods possess
The first gives the description of the problem to be solved; the second presents the methods determining the hybrid model; in the third, the criteria are considered and their weight coefficients are calculated, while the fourth shows the application of the FMABAC method to a specific example
In the military organization, special attention is given to the decision-making process because a human being is in the center of every decision, and, all the people are not expected to react in the same way in the situations in which they may find themselves (Pamučar et al, 2011a)
