The Best-Worst Method (BWM) is a well-known Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) method. This article deals with the multiplicative model of BWM. We first formulate an optimization model that is equivalent to the existing multiplicative…

The Best-Worst Method (BWM) is a well-known distance based multi-criteria decision-making method used for computing the weights of decision criteria. This article examines a taxicab distance based model of the BWM, with the objective of…

The nonlinear model of the best-worst method frequently produces multiple optimal weight sets, which are conventionally determined through optimization software. While an analytical approach exists that provides both a closed-form…

Preference disaggregation methods in Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) often encounter challenges related to inconsistency and cognitive biases when deriving a value function from experts' holistic preferences. This paper introduces the…

Selecting the optimal radio access technology (RAT) during vertical handovers (VHO) in heterogeneous wireless networks (HWNs) is critical. Multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) is the most common approach used for network selection (NS) in…

In observational studies, weighting methods that directly optimize the balance between treatment and covariates have received much attention lately; however these have mainly focused on binary treatments. Inspired by domain adaptation, we…

Supply chain management has been concentrated on productive ways to manage flows through a sophisticated vendor, manufacturer, and consumer networks for decades. Recently, energy and material rates have been greatly consumed to improve the…

In this paper, we address the identification problem for the systems characterized by linear time-invariant dynamics with bilinear observation models. More precisely, we consider a suitable parametric description of the system and formulate…
