Abstract

Multi-criteria decision-making methods often include attributes with uncertain nature in practical applications, single-valued neutrosophic set is an important approach to solve above problem. QUALIFLEX method is a traditional decision method that makes decision by comparing different permutations of alternatives. In this paper, QUALIFLEX method is developed to solve the MCDM problem with the element of decision matrix is the single-valued neutrosophic number. Besides, since the defects of the original QUALIFLEX method about fusing information of different attributes, this paper uses Dempster-Shafer theory of evidence to integrate the information about weight and alternatives. Finally, by comparing the result with other MCDM methods, we find that the new method can not only obtain reasonable results, but also explain the decision results by probability theory. This paper not only develops the traditional MCDM method, but also a meaningful attempt to apply AI algorithm in MCDM method.
