Multi-Attribute Decision Making using Hybrid Approach based on Benefit-Cost Model for Sustainable Fashion

Abstract

Multi-Attribute Decision Making (MADM) is used to select the best alternative from multi-alternatives based on multi-attribute (fashion material) and multi-criteria (sustainable fashion). Multi-alternatives are cotton, linen, silk, wool, acrylic, nylon, polyester, rayon, spandex, and mixed. Multi-attributes are material, texture, color, characteristic, comfort, and wearability. Multi-criteria are material fiber, smooth texture, faded color, elastic clothing, useful long, chilly and comfortable. Hybrid approaches and optimal solutions are needed to determine the best choice in decision making for both producers and consumers. The hybrid approach in MADM used is Simple Multi-Attribute Rating (SMART), Multi-Factor Evaluation Process (MFEP), Multi-Object Optimization based on Ratio Analysis (MOORA), Simple Additive Weighting (SAW), and Weighted Product (WP). SMART and MFEP are based on the Non-Benefit Cost Model while MOORA, SAW, and WP are based on a Benefit-Cost Model. The experimental results show that the SMART model with the best alternative is the rayon with the highest value (2.8333). The selection of the MFEP Model with the best alternative is rayon with the highest value (2.8330). The choice of MOORA model with the best alternative is rayon with the highest value (0.2595). The selection of the SAW Model with the best alternative is rayon with the highest value (0.8932). The selection of the WP Model with the best alternative is rayon with the highest value (0.1285). MADM using SMART, MFEP, MOORA, SAW, and WP for sustainable fashion yields the best alternative for consumption and production for the middle-class population in Indonesia.

Parameters optimization of tungsten inert gas welding process on 304L stainless steel using grey based Taguchi method

“…Equation (12) was used to compute an interval of confidence ♡ CI for the anticipated mean on a test of confirmation [41].…”

“…The decision maker (DM) must choose/prioritize/rank a limited number of options. MODM, on the other hand, is connected with challenges in which the options are not preset [11,12]. In this study, to identify and select the best optimization MADM or MODM techniques, 17 journal articles were reviewed.…”

Driving Sustainable Practices in Vocational Education Infrastructure: A Case Study from Latvia

“…The ranking of the 23 educational institutions was performed with a composite indicator, using a Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) technique that considered three critical factors. A factor can be considered a "Benefit attribute" if an increase in its value is desirable, and a "Cost attribute" if otherwise [32]. These factors were as follows:…”
