Abstract
AbstractThis paper proposes a method to aid the selection process of multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) problem, in which the criteria values provided by experts are in the form of uncertain linguistic variables. Based on the partial order of uncertain linguistic variables, the superiority index of one alternative over another for a given criterion and the overall superiority index of one alternative are defined. Some properties of the superiority index are presented and discussed. Then a procedure based on the superiority indices is presented to select the best alternative(s). The proposed method is also extended to multi-criteria group decision making. Finally, one example of evaluating the technological innovation capability of enterprises is given to verify the proposed method.KeywordsMulti-criteria decision making (MCDM)Superiority indexLinguistic variableGroup decision making
