An Expert System Approach for Criteria Weighting in Multicriteria Analysis

This paper presents an expert system approach to criteria weighting for solving multicriteria analysis problems involving repetitive selection of alternatives regarding multiple criteria for accomplishing a specific task. Linguistic terms modelled by fuzzy numbers are used to effectively formulate the imprecise and subjective weighting process. A fuzzy knowledge base is constructed to acquire the knowledge of experts in criteria weighting on which consistent and reliable criteria weights can be derived. An empirical study of a real dredgerdispatching problem is presented The result shows that the expert system approach is effective and reliable for solving practical problem of this kind due to the simplicity in concept, the easiness in use, and the consistency in determining criteria weights.
