Application of Fuzzy Projection Method to Water Resource Planning

摘要

Water resource planning is very important for water resources management. A desirable water resource planning is typically made in order to satisfy multiple objectives as much as possible. Thus the water resource planning problem is actually a Multiple Attribute Decision Making (MADM) problem. The aim of this study is to put forward a new decision method to solve the problem of water resource planning in which attribute values expressed with triangular fuzzy numbers. The new method is an extension of projection method. To avoid the subjective randomness, the coefficient of variation method is used to determine the attribute weights. A practical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method.
