Extended Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (E-FAHP): A General Approach

Abstract: Fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) methodologies have witnessed a growing development from the late 1980s until now, and countless FAHP based applications have been published in many fields including economics, finance, environment or engineering. In this context, the FAHP methodologies have been generally restricted to fuzzy numbers with linear type of membership functions (triangular numbers—TN—and trapezoidal numbers—TrN). This paper proposes an extended FAHP model (E-FAHP) where pairwise fuzzy compari… Show more

“…The main empirical limitation of the research can be interpreted as a future research discourse within this topic. Application of the traditional fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP), the modified version of extended fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (E-FAHP), or a combination of different multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) techniques can reduce the vagueness inherent in a stand-alone linguistic assessment and an uncertain comparison of opinions [68]. Accordingly, future scientific discussions and empirical investigations should be focused on using this set of methodological techniques in continuous scientific investigations.…”

“…In the classical AHP method, n refers to the number of criteria and n (n−1)/2 pairwise comparisons are required [ 61 ]. The diagonal elements of the matrix formed as a result of pairwise comparisons take the value of 1.…”

“…Additionally, FAHP has been compared with AHP by Lee [ 34 ], highlighting their respective advantages and disadvantages. Recognizing the limited efficiency and applicability of traditional FAHP, numerous studies have discussed and extended upon the FAHP approach [ 35 , 36 ]. On the other hand, objective weighting methods assign weights to different indicators based on information contained within them.…”
