A Study on The Multi-Attribute Decision Theory and Methods

Abstract

Multi-attribute decision-making problem (MADM) is a kind of multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM), which is often used to solve decision-making problems where the decision variables are discrete and the number of decision-making schemes is limited. This paper reviews the basic definition of multi-attribute decision making (MADM) through the performance evaluation of science and technology funds in a city, and then deduces the TODIM decision making method and TOPSIS decision making method in detail. Finally, the clue case is decided by combining these two decision making methods. This paper specifically shows the usage scenarios and limitations of the TODIM decision method and the TOPSIS decision method through the clue case, analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of the two methods through the comparison of the two methods, and puts forward suggestions for the clue case based on the results of the two schemes.
