Abstract
This paper presents an evaluation model based on the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process and fuzzy integral where the vagueness and subjectivity are handled with linguistic values parameterized by trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. We adopt fuzzy measure and fuzzy integral, one of the multiple attribute decision-making approaches, to rank the evaluated objects. Evaluating MBTs is a multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) problem. The performance of 29 MBTs were evaluated and ranked to serve as a case study to illustrate the procedure and effectiveness of the proposed approach.
