A Compromise-Typed Variable Weight Decision Method for Hybrid Multiattribute Decision Making

The purpose of this paper is to develop a compromise-typed variable weight decision method for solving hybrid multiattribute decision making problems with multiple types of attribute values. The compromise-typed variable weight functions are defined and constructed by utility functions. Moreover, the variable weight synthesis and the orness measures based on the coefficients of absolute risk aversion are analyzed in variable weight decision making. The comprehensive values of alternatives based on the compromise-typed variable weight decision method are calculated. The decision-making results are determined according to the comprehensive values. Finally, an example and a detailed comparison analysis are presented to show the applicability and validity of the proposed method.
