Abstract

In this paper, another methodology for positioning of choices with fuzzy information for collective choice creation utilizing TOPSIS technique is proposed. Another likeness measure is acquainted all together with decide the best one among the other options. The proposed strategy is shown by a numerical model.In this paper, another methodology for positioning of choices with fuzzy information for collective choice creationutilizing TOPSIS technique is proposed.
