Abstract
In this paper, we propose a new autocratic multiattribute group decision making (AMAGDM) method for hotel location selection based on interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IVIFSs), where the evaluating values of the attributes for alternatives and the weights of the attributes given by decision makers are represented by interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy values (IVIFVs). The proposed method calculates the changing of the weights of the decision makers until the group consensus degree (GCD) of the decision makers is larger than or equal to a predefined threshold value. We also apply the proposed AMAGDM method to deal with the hotel location selection problem. The main contribution of this paper is that we propose a new AMAGDM method which is simpler than Wibowo's method (2013), where the drawback of Wibowo's method is that it is too complicated due to the fact that it adopts the concept of ideal solutions for determining the overall performance of each hotel location alternative with respect to all the selection criteria. The proposed AMAGDM method provides us with a very useful way for AMAGDM in interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy environments.
