The multiple attribute decision making (MADM) is an important research field in decision science and operations research. Recently, several commonly used methods such as the TOPSIS and the VIKOR were proposed to solve the MADM problems. The TOPSIS and VIKOR are based on aggregating functions...

The aim of this paper is to develop a new fuzzy linear programming technique for solving multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) problems with incomplete weight preference information under fuzzy environments. In this methodology, linguistic variables are used to capture fuzziness in decision...

The aim of this paper is to develop an effective method for solving matrix games with payoffs of triangular fuzzy numbers (TFNs) which are arbitrary. In this method, it always assures that players’ gain-floor and loss-ceiling have a common TFN-type fuzzy value and hereby any matrix game with...

The aim of this note is to point out and correct some vital mistakes in the paper by P K Nayak and M Pal, "Linear programming technique to solve two person matrix (games with interval pay-offs). Asia-Pacific Journal of Operational Research, 26(2), 285–305". Lots of serious mistakes on the...

Matrix game theory is concerned with how two players make decisions when they are faced with known exact payoffs. The aim of this paper is to develop a simple and an effective linear programming method for solving matrix games in which the payoffs are expressed with intervals. Because the...

The purpose of this paper is to develop a nonlinear programming model and method for solving fuzzy multi-attribute group decision making (FMAGDM) problems with linguistic variables. In this methodology, alternatives are assessed on qualitative attributes using linguistic terms from the...
