The process of multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) is of determining the best choice among all of the probable alternatives. The problem of supplier selection on which decision maker has usually vague and imprecise knowledge is a…

Municipal solid waste management (MSWM) is a challenging issue of urban development in developing countries. Each country having different socio-economic-environmental background, might not accept a particular disposal method as the optimal…

This chapter assesses the sensitivity of multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods to modifications within the decision or objective matrix (DOM) in the context of chemical engineering optimization applications. Employing eight common…

With increases in population, there is a noticeable change across the world in pollution levels. Recently there has been growing demand for renewable energy operated devices boomed. Numerous reasons have led to such growth including lower…

In multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) problems, ratings are assigned to the alternatives on different criteria by the expert group. In this paper, we propose a thermodynamically consistent model for MCDM using the analogies for…

Each decision-making tool should be tested and validated in real case studies to be practical and fit to global problems. The application of multi-criteria decision-making methods (MCDM) is currently a trend to rank alternatives. In the…

Renewable energy is crucial for addressing the growing energy demands of modern society while mitigating the adverse effects of climate change. Unlike fossil fuels, renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, hydro, geothermal, and…

Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) is extensively used across diverse industries to assess and rank alternatives. Among numerous MCDA methods developed to solve real-world ranking problems, TOPSIS remains one of the most popular…

Multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) is necessary for choosing one from the available alternatives (or from the obtained Pareto-optimal solutions for multi-objective optimization), where the performance of each alternative is quantified…

High-resolution gridded climate data are readily available from multiple sources, yet climate research and decision-making increasingly require country and region-specific climate information weighted by socio-economic factors. Moreover,…

Many-Objective Feature Selection (MOFS) approaches use four or more objectives to determine the relevance of a subset of features in a supervised learning task. As a consequence, MOFS typically returns a large set of non-dominated…

TOPSIS, a popular method for ranking alternatives is based on aggregated distances to ideal and anti-ideal points. As such, it was considered to be essentially different from widely popular and acknowledged `utility-based methods', which…

A vast number of multicriteria decision making methods have been developed to deal with the problem of ranking a set of alternatives evaluated in a multicriteria fashion. Very often, these methods assume that the evaluation among criteria…

Multicriteria decision-making methods exhibit critical dependence on the choice of normalization techniques, where different selections can alter 20-40% of the final rankings. Current practice is characterized by the ad-hoc selection of…

Clouds play a key role in regulating climate change but are difficult to simulate within Earth system models (ESMs). Improving the representation of clouds is one of the key tasks towards more robust climate change projections. This study…

In this study, we propose a multicriteria group decision making (MCGDM) algorithm under uncertainty where data is collected as intervals. The proposed MCGDM algorithm aggregates the data, determines the optimal weights for criteria and…

This chapter describes selected reference-type multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods that rank alternatives by comparing them with one or more reference solutions derived from an alternatives-criteria matrix (ACM). After explaining…

This study aims to present a new hybrid method for weighting criteria. The methodological project combines the ENTROPY and CRITIC methods with the TOPSIS method to create EC-TOPSIS. The difference lies in the use of a weight range per…

On-shelf utility mining (OSUM) is an emerging research direction in data mining. It aims to discover itemsets that have high relative utility in their selling time period. Compared with traditional utility mining, OSUM can find more…

Network estimation from multi-variate point process or time series data is a problem of fundamental importance. Prior work has focused on parametric approaches that require a known parametric model, which makes estimation procedures less…
