Novel approach to group multi-criteria decision making based on interval rough numbers: Hybrid DEMATEL-ANP-MAIRCA model

作者:

Highlights:

• Interval rough number is introduced to deal with the vagueness in decision-making.

• A novel DEMATEL-ANP model based oninterval rough numbers.

• Application of a new multi-criteria technique called MARICA.

• An interval rough number based on MARICA is proposed to evaluate the alternatives.

• Multi-criteria techniques were compared based on interval rough and fuzzy approaches.
