Updated discussions on ‘Hybrid multiple criteria decisionmaking methods: a review of applications for sustainability issues’
A recent review discussed a variety of hybrid multiple criteria
decision-making (H.M.C.D.M.) methods on the subject of sustainability
issues. Some soft computing techniques, such as the fuzzy set,
have contributed significantly to H.M.C.D.M. studies, emulating the
imprecise or uncertain judgments of experts/decision makers in a
complex environment. Nevertheless, a new rising trend in H.M.C.D.M.,
known as multiple rule-based decision-making (M.R.D.M.), which has
the advantage of revealing understandable knowledge for supporting
systematic improvements based on influential network relation
maps (I.N.R.M.), was not discussed in the review. This study therefore
attempts to extend the review by introducing recent developments
and the associated work on M.R.D.M. for solving practical problems,
updating the discussion
