Abstract

ABSTRAK Dapat diperhatikan bahawa kata putus dalam masalah multi-kriterium yang dibuat secara linguistik kabur adalah lebih mudah serta ‘mesra pengguna’ berbanding dengan menggunakan nilai skala yang kuantitatif. Dalam kajian ini diusulkan pendekatan pemboleh ubah linguistik kabur untuk dimanfaat dalam kaedah ubah suaian perluasan-TOPSIS (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) secara mengurangkan daripada sebelas kepada tiga potongan-α. Analisis dimulai dengan mengkuantitikan pemboleh ubah linguistik kabur melalui nombor kabur segi tiga untuk diterapkan dalam gabungan kaedah perluasan-TOPSIS dan pengaturcaraan tak linear. Selanjutnya, pengiraan dibuat untuk mendapatkan tiga nilai potongan-α, iaitu α = 0, α = 0.5 dan α = 1.0, sebelum proses penyahkaburan dan pemangkatan dapat dilakukan bagi mengenal pasti alternatif yang terbaik. Di akhir kajian diberi contoh penggunaan pemboleh ubah linguistik kabur dan ubah suaian yang diusulkan berserta pengiraan yang berkaitan dalam masalah multi-kriterium pemilihan. Dapatan pengiraan menunjukkan, ia memberi manfaat dari aspek penjimatan masa pengiraan dan dapat mengurangkan kerumitan proses pemutusan tanpa menjejaskan ketepatan dapatan kajian.

In this paper, the advantage of linguistic variables is utilised in a modification of Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS)-extension by reducing the a-cuts from eleven to three levels. In the first place, the linguistic variables are quantified through triangular fuzzy numbers employed in both TOPSIS-extension and non-linear programming; afterwards the three α-cuts, namely α = 0, α = 0.5 dan α = 1.0, are calculated before the defuzzifying and ranking process was made to identify the best alternative under consideration. A hypothetical example in a multi-criteria decision-making problem is provided to demonstrate the applicability and practicability of the proposed modification method. Based on the numerical calculations, it is found that the method is beneficial to reduce the decision process complexity and is less time consuming, giving a similar result without loss of any originality.
