| description | Determining attribute weights is an indispensable step in multi-attribute decision-making problems, and it is also a top priority in the study of multi-attribute decision-making problems. Existing methods for determining attribute weights do not completely and effectively reflect the decision-maker’s dependency preferences, which will result in unreasonable ranking results for decision-makers. To solve this problem, this article proposes a feature-weighted multi-attribute decision-making method based on Taylor expansion. The method uses the natural base and the eigenvalues of the matrix to construct the feature-weighted coefficients and weights; normalizes all the feature vectors of the matrix; and constructs a new weight vector. Combined with the example to analyze and verify, the method makes reasonable use of all decision information, which saves the decision time of decision-makers. |
