Base-criterion on multi-criteria decision-making method and its applications

In this paper, Base-criterion method (BCM) is proposed to solve multi-criteria decision-making problems. According to BCM, instead of executing a pairwise comparisons between all criteria or executing a pairwise comparisons between each of the best and worst criteria to other criteria, one of the criteria is chosen by the decision-maker as a base-criterion (e.g. preferential, selective) and then pairwise comparisons between base-criterion and...
