Customer Portals Feature Comparison Matrix

The Heritage Palace is located in Surakarta City of Central Java which formerly was the sugar factory that is currently used as a tourist attraction. However, this place has the problem of lacking its informative and interactive signage, less by the branding of the tourist spots, and less proper in material selection. The data collection used were the literature study, observation, interviews and questionnaires, using comparison matrix as data analysis method. The concept of the design takes the modern and old heritage concept using a font that matches the clear language and adds pictogram. The purpose of this design is to provide informative and interactive information using signage ang interactive media that is useful to help visitors get information when they visit the tourist site

Original Construction

A famous paper that has been cited more than four hundred times tried to combine (a) the preference ranking organization method for enrichment evaluations (PROMETHEE) and (b) the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to construct a new method for multicriteria decision-making problems. The paper developed a consistent comparison matrix for their AHP by the defined first row and then they allowed the expert to change several entries in the comparison matrix. Hence, how to construct a new comparison matrix that is (i) consistent and (ii) satisfying the assigned values by the expert becomes a challenging problem. A recent article provided a reply to the above problem by the construction of all entries for the comparison matrix. However, they did not follow the original design proposed by the famous paper. In this paper, we present a new approach with a proposition that satisfies the original design of the famous paper and also achieves two goals (i) and (ii). The research gap of proof is fulfilled by this paper. Our findings explain that the original construction of the famous paper to develop a consistent comparison matrix only by the first row with several assigned values by an expert is indeed workable under two additional restrictions proposed by the recent article. We believe that after our proposition, researchers have the confidence to execute the original design of the paper that has been cited more than four hundred times.

Approximation Models

In this study, our uncertain judgment on multiple items is denoted as a fuzzy weight vector. Its membership function is estimated from more than one interval weight vector. The interval weight vector is obtained from a crisp/interval comparison matrix by Interval Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). We redefine it as a closure of the crisp weight vectors which approximate the comparison matrix. The intuitively given comparison matrix is often imperfect so that there could be various approaches to approximate it. We propose two of them: upper and lower approximation models. The former is based on weight possibility and the weight vector with it includes the comparison matrix. The latter is based on comparison possibility and the comparison matrix with it includes the weight vector.
