We develop a ranking process for multi-objective decision making. For optimizing the multi-objective problem having both quantitative and qualitative objectives, weight assessment is important to convert the problem into the corresponding single objective problem. Therefore, a ranking process is proposed to simultaneously obtain the objective weights and the evaluation of alternatives with multiple objectives. Several new concepts are developed to handle the dynamism in distance computation and ranking of decisions in a multi-objective model having qualitative evaluations. The proposed process is illustrated in a numerical example.
| selected citations These citations are derived from selected sources. This is an alternative to the "Influence" indicator, which also reflects the overall/total impact of an article in the research community at large, based on the underlying citation network (diachronically). | 5 | |
| popularity This indicator reflects the "current" impact/attention (the "hype") of an article in the research community at large, based on the underlying citation network. | Average | |
| influence This indicator reflects the overall/total impact of an article in the research community at large, based on the underlying citation network (diachronically). | Average | |
| impulse This indicator reflects the initial momentum of an article directly after its publication, based on the underlying citation network. | Average |
