Abstract

In the present study we have presented the notion of FUZZY BAYESIAN DECISION TECHNIQUE and combined the idea of the Fuzzy TOPSIS technique and entropy. We define the new ideas of fuzzy TOPSIS technique and entropy. So, we introduce the TOPSIS method and entropy, and the weights of the DMs are used. We proposed an MCDM technique based on TOPSIS and entropy. We focus on parameter different solutions of Fuzzy TOPSIS Positive ideal and Negative ideal solutions efficient decision making. Also, we provide a numerical example to elucidate the proposed technique stage by stage. Lastly, we compare the explanations of the current problem with the many existing MCGDM approaches to deliver the skills and rationality of the offered technique. We also provide a sensitivity study by shifting the entropy to establish the weights of the criteria underneath the dominant entropy measure meaning.
