“…There are many methods available for determining weights, but the methods are mostly categorized into two main approaches: subjective and objective methods. Some researchers [ 66 , 68 ] have used aggregated weights that combine subjective and objective weights to balance the evaluator(s) and data-driven impact. Subjective methods involve the rater(s) of different backgrounds and experiences, and the analytical hierarchy process (AHP) is one of the most popular Subjective methods developed by [ 82 ], and Full Consistency Method (FUCOM), the Best Worst Method (BWM), along with issues of inconsistency and the problem of rank inversion.…”

One of the most important challenges for decision-makers and investors is location selection, which may be assessed using multicriteria decision-making (MCDM) methodologies. Problems with picking a location include deciding between alternative locations, analyzing alternatives, and identifying the best location for a hospital. Because they analyze options with multiple perspectives in terms of numerous competing criteria, MCDM approaches are useful instruments for solving decision-making challenges. The fuzzy set theory (FST), which represents uncertainty in human beliefs, may be effectively used with MCDM approaches to produce more sensitive, tangible, and accurate findings in this context. A hybrid fuzzy multi-criteria decision model (FMCDM) is proposed to find the optimal location based on a combination of factors. In the first stage, the Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process (FAHP) is used to estimate the relative criteria classification through the evaluation process. In the second stage, the fuzzy technique of order preference using similarities to the perfect solution (FTOPSIS) is applied to rank the possible alternative sites. The findings from this study indicate that integrate FAHP and FTOPSIS is the most often used FMCDM approach in Aleppo for selecting the best location for a new hospital.
