A hybrid ANP model in fuzzy environments for strategic alliance partner selection in the airline industry

Highlights from the literature on risk assessment techniques adopted in the mining industry: A review of past contributions, recent developments and future scope

“…Supplier selection Product late delivery, cost, risk factor, supplier's service performance with the help of three decision makers [65] DoE-grey relational theory Technology selection Rapid prototyping-accuracy, surface roughness, tensile strength, elongation; Flexible manufacturing systems-accuracy, flexibility in software interface (total 11 criteria); AIS-reduction in labour cost, reduction in WIP, floor space used (total 7 criteria) [66] Grey system theory and logistic regression into case based reasoning Thermal power plants Case-Id-implementation of safety principle and goal management, implementation of responsibility system for safety in production, case safety supervision system, integrated management [67] Fuzzy preference programming combined with analytic hierarchy process Airlines alliance Market, service/product, computer system, equipment logistic [68] Fuzzy ANP Conceptual design alternatives Marketability, competitive advantage, profitability [69] ANP-AHP Solar power project Changes in the energy policy, social consequences resulting from land acquisition, total 50 parameters prioritization of the hazards based upon risk levels obtained from the evaluation techniques mentioned above. The construction industry has undergone a number of technological advancements leading to an increase in the number of construction hazards.…”

Exploring key factors in online shopping with a hybrid model

“…The DANP can reflect real world situations more accurately (Ou Yang et al 2008) and can provide valuable information for decision making. It has been successfully applied to solve a variety of MCDM problems, such as improving marketing (Chiu et al 2013), tourism policy (Liu et al 2012), airline partner selection (Liou et al 2011), information security risk (Ou Yang et al 2013; Lo and Chen 2012), environment watershed plans (Chen et al 2010). …”

A new hybrid MCDM model combining DANP with VIKOR to improve e-store business

“…This research has focused on how to manage e-stores and create marketing strategies. Previous relation methods have focused on influence [38], assessment [13], ranking [37,92] selection [18,36,47,49,60,72], and improvement [14,21,46,48,50,51,59,83,85]. Thus, this study seeks a new hybrid Multiple Attribute Decision Making (MADM) model combining the Decision Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) technique to build an influential relationship among dimensions and criteria, DEMATEL-based ANP (DANP) to find the influential weights, and VIšekriterijumsko KOmpromisno Rangiranje (VIKOR) methods to assess performance, not only in ranking and selection but also in improving and creating e-store marketing strategies to reduce gaps in each dimension and criterion to promote the e-store environment and satisfy customers' needs.…”
