Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) includes methods and tools for modeling and solving complex problems. MCDM has become popular in the production and service sectors to improve the quality of service, reduce costs, and make people more prosperous. This book illustrates applications through case studies focused on disaster management. With a presentation of both Multi-Attribute Decision-Making (MADM) and Multi-Objective Decision-Making (MODM) models, this is the first book to merge these methods and tools with disaster management. This book raises awareness for society and decision-makers on how to measure readiness and what necessary preventive measures need to be taken. It offers models and case studies that can be easily adapted to solve complex problems and find solutions in other fields. Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis: Case Studies in Disaster Management will offer new insights to researchers working in the areas of industrial engineering, systems engineering, healthcare systems, operations research, mathematics, business, computer science, and disaster management, and, hopefully, the book will also stimulate further work in MCDM.
In today’s modernized world, the field of healthcare has seen significant practical innovations with the implementation of computational intelligence approaches and soft computing methods. These two concepts present various solutions to complex scientific problems and imperfect data issues. This has made both very popular in the medical profession. There are still various areas to be studied and improved by these two schemes as healthcare practices continue to develop. Computational Intelligence and Soft Computing Applications in Healthcare Management Science is an essential reference source that discusses the implementation of soft computing techniques and computational methods in the various components of healthcare, telemedicine, and public health. Featuring research on topics such as analytical modeling, neural networks, and fuzzy logic, this book is ideally designed for software engineers, information scientists, medical professionals, researchers, developers, educators, academicians, and students.
This book presents a collection of recent research on topics related to Pythagorean fuzzy set, dealing with dynamic and complex decision-making problems. It discusses a wide range of theoretical and practical information to the latest research on Pythagorean fuzzy sets, allowing readers to gain an extensive understanding of both fundamentals and applications. It aims at solving various decision-making problems such as medical diagnosis, pattern recognition, construction problems, technology selection, and more, under the Pythagorean fuzzy environment, making it of much value to students, researchers, and professionals associated with the field.
This book presents recent advances in the theory and application of the Best-Worst Method (BWM). It includes selected papers from the Second International Workshop on Best-Worst Method (BWM2021), held in Delft, The Netherlands from 10-11 June, 2021, and provides valuable insights on why and how to use BWM in a diverse range of applications including health, energy, supply chain management, and engineering. The book highlights the use of BWM in different settings including single decision-making vs group decision-making, and complete information vs incomplete and uncertain situations. The papers gathered here will benefit academics and practitioners who are involved in multi-criteria decision-making and decision analysis.

Failure prioritization process is described by identifying potential failures and its effects, quantifying their priorities and determining appropriate ways to mitigate or control. In the literature, many approaches are suggested to prioritize failures and associated effects quantitatively. Multicriteria decision-making (MCDM) approaches are forefront that they can express the failures verbally based on decision-makers’ judgments. They explain different types of uncertainties, which are generally modeled by fuzzy sets.
This book provides in-depth guidance on how to use multi-criteria decision analysis methods for risk assessment and risk management. The frontiers of engineering operations management methods for identifying the risks, investigating their roles, analyzing the complex cause-effect relationships, and proposing countermeasures for risk mitigation are presented in this book. There is a total of ten chapters, mainly including the indicators and organizational models for risk assessment, the integrated Bayesian Best-Worst method and classifiable TOPSIS model for risk assessment, new risk prioritization model, fuzzy risk assessment under uncertainties, assessment of COVID-19 transmission risk based...
