Abstract

This paper presentsagroup multi-criteria DEMATELand VIKORdecision analysis method with interval type-2 fuzzy sets. In order to compare normal fuzzy trapezoidal numbers, we convert them into crisp values using graded mean integration representation. Byacase study for selection of business intelligence platform, we prove that the proposed combination isafeasible solution that can work with benefits and costs criteria, while also reducing uncertainty in experts’assessments.
