The Research of Multiple Attribute Group Decision-Making Method Based on Cloud-PROMETHEE

Abstract:

For the problem of interval multiple attribute group decision-making, this paper studies the Cloud-PROMETHEE method. First, we can obtain the comprehensive weight. Second, we transform the interval decision matrix into cloud by cloud model because of randomness and fuzziness of date information. With the help of the PROMETHEE, we use overall priority index to determine the order of alternatives. Finally, an example concerns analysis, which is the risk analysis of planning process of new energy products, is given to show the feasibility and availability of the method.
