An Application of Fuzzy Multiobjective Programming to Fuzzy AHP

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Advances in Soft Computing ((AINSC,volume 21))

Abstract

In the real world, we encounter many subjective evaluation problems. For some class of them, we can give the numerical evaluation by means of Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) approaches. Moreover, we can even identify the λ-fuzzy measure as the subjective evaluation by using AHP result. Although the original problem includes subjective estimates, this identification process has no vagueness. So, in this article, we discuss the identification process with vagueness. That is, fuzzy multiobjective programming techniques are applied to an identification problem for the parameter of λ-fuzzy measure.
