New TOPSIS-RAD method incorporates decision-maker preferences for ranking

Researchers have introduced TOPSIS-RAD, a novel method for ranking alternatives that aims to improve upon traditional TOPSIS by incorporating decision-maker preferences. This new approach uses Vetoed Performance Levels (VPL) to exclude non-viable options and Desired Performance Levels (DPL) to anchor rankings to explicit aspirations, rather than solely relying on dataset extremes. The method is designed to enhance stability and reduce sensitivity to outliers and rank reversal. AI
