Enhancing Urban Development with Picture Fuzzy Sets: A Strategic Decision Support Framework
Journal Title: Journal of Urban Development and Management - Year 2023, Vol 2, Issue 4
Abstract
In the realm of sustainable urban development, a paramount focus is placed on the amalgamation of environmental conservation, the integration of smart technology, and the promotion of social inclusivity. This approach advocates for transit-oriented development, the establishment of resilient infrastructure, and the active engagement of communities. A critical balance is sought between economic viability and adaptive governance, aiming to cultivate cities that are simultaneously environmentally conscious, economically vibrant, and socially equitable. Within this context, Multiple Attribute Decision Making (MADM) emerges as a pivotal tool, streamlining decision processes through the quantitative evaluation of alternatives against criteria such as environmental impact and social inclusivity. MADM plays an instrumental role in ensuring effective resource allocation, thereby fostering resilient infrastructure and optimizing the equilibrium between economic growth and sustainability in urban planning. This study delves into an advanced methodology for addressing uncertainties in decision-making, employing Picture Fuzzy Sets (PFSs), articulated through the meticulous application of the Measurement Alternatives and Ranking according to Compromise Solution (MARCOS). The utilization of the MARCOS strategy in decision-making is underscored by its proven robustness as a tool for pinpointing the optimal objective. This method integrates diverse aggregation strategies to adeptly navigate complex decision scenarios characterized by multiple criteria. To illustrate the adaptability and efficacy of the proposed methodology, a numerical case study is presented, offering a vivid demonstration of its practical application in the field of urban development.
