An Intuitionistic Approach for Ranking OTA Websites under Multi Criteria Group Decision Making Framework

Journal Title: Annals of Computer Science and Information Systems - Year 2018, Vol 14, Issue

Abstract

The transformations from approaches based on crisp set towards fuzzy set were introduced to include the uncertainty experienced in decision making. But the problem of hesitation about any alternative still prevailed among the decision makers. Later, an extension of fuzzy sets, the intuitionistic fuzzy sets, filled the gap between the degree of satisfaction and the degree of dissatisfaction encountered by the decision makers. Also, the biasness noticed while comparing a number of alternatives based on multiple criteria by a single person, necessitated for a multi criteria group decision making (MCGDM) approach. In this paper, we propose a hybrid model that combines the MCGDM techniques of intuitionistic fuzzy analytical hierarch process (IFAHP) and intuitionistic fuzzy multi objective optimization on the basis of ratio analysis (IFMOORA). The IFAHP technique is used to find the criteria weights and IFMOORA technique is used for overall ranking of OTA websites. To validate the proposed model, we apply it to rank online travel agencies (OTA) websites on the basis of a number of success factors. The model developed is flexible and can be further applied to various selection problems.
