提出SITDE方法,通过考虑准则分布的不对称性来改进多准则决策,以电动汽车选择案例展示其优于传统方法,适用于环境管理和金融风险评估等领域。
In this article, we propose the Skewness Impact Through Distributional Evaluation (SITDE) method for multi-criteria decision-making. Unlike traditional methods ignoring criteria distribution asymmetry, SITDE enhances the decision quality. We use a case-study on electric vehicle selection to illustrate the efficiency of SITDE relative to conventional methods. The comprehensive decision support with SITDE across multiple thresholds is an important aspect of a detailed and balanced decision-making virtue as our results show in case the skewness effects are included. Theoretical backgrounds, typologies practical applications and statistical justifications to confirm the accuracy of SITDE in regarding to limit complexities MCDM scenarios are explained this paper. SITDE enhances a robust decision-making process by accounting for the inherent biases of symmetric assumption models. Moreover, SITDE proves to be extremely useful in cases for dealing with asymmetrical data distributions and skewed datasets humanitarian cause as infected situations are always overwhelming. This broad applicability indicates the potential for wider use with respect to different domains, such as in environmental management and financial risk assessment. Future studies should investigate the adequacy or insufficiency of its fusion with different MCDM methods and explore if this approach would apply a more efficient and valid insight that might enhance decision making in multiple sectors.
