TL;DR
A new method is proposed to solve the MADM problem, where the decision maker (DM) gives his/her preference on alternatives in a fuzzy relation, and a linear goal programming model is constructed to reflect the DM's subjective preference information.
Abstract
This paper investigates the multiple attribute decision-making (MADM) problem with preference information on alternatives. A new method is proposed to solve the MADM problem, where the decision maker (DM) gives his/her preference on alternatives in a fuzzy relation. To reflect the DM's subjective preference information, a linear goal programming model is constructed to determine the weight vector of attributes and then to rank the alternatives. Finally, a numerical example is used to illustrate the use of the proposed method.

It is shown that unfuzzy nondominated solutions to the decision-making problem exist, provided the original fuzzy relation satisfies some topological requirements, and a simple method of calculating these solutions is indicated.

This paper uses two quantifier guided choice degrees of alternatives, a dominance degree used to quantify the dominance that one alternative has over all the others, in a fuzzy majority sense, and a non dominance degree, that generalises Orlovski's non dominated alternative concept.

Using the fuzzy majority rule specified by a fuzzy linguistic quantifier, a calculus of linguistically quantified propositions is applied and various solution concepts are derived, mainly of the type of core, minimax (opposition) set and consensus winner.

A new methodology for analyzing individual differences in preference judgments with regard to a set of stimuli prespecified in a multidimensional attribute space and Computational results show that the methodology for external analysis is “unbiased”—i.e., on an average it recovers the “true” ideal point and weights.
