A FUZZY ARRAY-BASED CLUSTERING METHOD IN TEAM BUILDING

An array-based clustering approach is proposed as an effective mean for providing an alternative solution in team building problem. The proposed approach generates a systematic formation of task and team member families by sequencing the rows and the columns of a task-personnel incidence matrix. To obtain the task-personnel incidence matrix, a fuzzy sets approach will be proposed to combine two fundamental incidence matrices: the task-discipline and personnel-discipline incidence matrices. The proposed method is demonstrated by applying to an example in team building problem.
