Extension of the VIKOR method to dynamic intuitionistic fuzzy multiple attribute decision making

In this paper, we extend the VIKOR method for dynamic intuitionistic fuzzy multiple attribute decision making (DIF-MADM). Two new aggregation operators called dynamic intuitionistic fuzzy weighted geometric (DIFWG) operator and uncertain dynamic intuitionistic fuzzy weighted geometric (UDIFWG) operator are presented. Based on the DIFWA and UDIFWA operators respectively, we develop two procedures to solve the DIF-MADM problems where all attribute values are expressed in intuitionistic fuzzy numbers or interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy numbers, which are collected at different periods. Finally, a numerical example is used to illustrate the applicability of the proposed approach. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
