چکیده

هدف: در این مقاله توسیع جدیدی از روش قدرتمند تاپسیس برای حل مسائل تصمیم­گیری چندشاخصه نادقیق مدل شده با  استفاده از اعداد فازی مردد، که اخیرا برای مدل‌سازی نوع دیگری از منابع عدم قطعیت معرفی شده‌اند، ارائه خواهد شد.
روش‌شناسی پژوهش: چنان‌که می­دانیم روش تاپسیس مبتنی  بر چندین گام  است که با انجام متوالی آن­ها  مسئله حل خواهد شد. در این مطالعه، داده‌های ماتریس تصمیم به کمک اعداد فازی مردد مدل می‌شوند. سپس با استفاده از ابزارهای ریاضی بیان شده برای این نوع اعداد، دیگر گام‌ها یعنی نرمال‌سازی و وزن‌دار کردن ماتریس تصمیم، یافتن گزینه‌های ایده‌آل مثبت و منفی، تعیین فاصله دیگر گزینه‌ها از این دو گزینه ایده‌آل را به‌روزرسانی خواهیم نمود.
یافته ها: در این مطالعه توسیع جدیدی از روش محبوب تاپسیس برای حل مسائل تصمیم‌گیری چندشاخصه نادقیق،که عدم‌قطعیت در آن‌ها با اعدادفازی مردد کمّی‌سازی شده‌اند، معرفی شده است.
اصالت/ارزش افزوده علمی: به‌روزرسانی گام‌های روش تاپسیس برای استفاده از آن در مواردی که از اعداد فازی مردد برای مدل‌سازی عدم قطعیت استفاده می‌شود.

چکیده [English]

Purpose: The aim of this paper is to propose a new extension of Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) method to be applied with Hesitant Fuzzy Numbers (HFNs).
Methodology: At first, the uncertainty of all enteries of evaluation matrix have been modeled by HFNs. Then, each step of the standard model of TOPSIS method will be updated, using the newly introduced HFNs’ mathematical tools, such as distance measures and aggregation operators of HFNs.  The proposed method will be used to solve a Multi-Attribute Decision Making (MADM) problem. Finally, the credibility and comparison analysis of the obtained ranking order will be discussed.
Findings: In this paper, the TOPSIS method as a popular method for solving MADM problems has been developed to be applied with HFNs.
Originality/Value: In this paper, the TOPSIS method as a popular method for solving MADM problems has been developed to be applied with HFNs.
