A decision making model for an optimal medicine using analytical hierarchical processes

摘要

To decide on an optimal pain medicine from a clinician's viewpoint for patients who complain about pain after surgery, we use the method of Analytical Hierarchical Processes (AHP). This is an extended application of the classical AHP which has optimality [7]. Uncertainty in assigning priorities and the use of semantic variables leads to the inclusion of fuzzy sets into the structure of the AHP paradigm [5,7]. We describe our model by a hierarchical process having four levels. We will introduce inconsistencies in some of our evaluations.
