Description

SAHP

Analytic hierarchy process

A hierarchical pairwise comparison considering stochastic variables

SANP

Analytic network process

Evaluation of the dynamic multi-directional relationship between the decision criteria using stochastic variables

STOPSIS

Technique for order of preference by similarity to ideal solution

A MCDM technique based on the concept of choosing the solution with distance from ideal solution considering stochastic variables

SPROMETHEE

Preference ranking organization method for enrichment of evaluations

An outranking method based on a pairwise comparison of alternatives to defined criterion using stochastic variables

SELECTRE

Elimination et choix traduisant la realité

An outranking method based on pairwise comparisons to determine the concordance and discordance sets using stochastic variables

SVIKOR

Visekriterijumska Optimizacija IKompromisno Resenje

Method for determining the compromise ranking-list of a set of alternatives using stochastic variables

SEDAS

The evaluation based on distance from average solution

It is based on distances of each alternative from the average solution with respect to each criterion
