Ranking of Different States in India Based on Sustainable Women Empowerment Using MCDM Methodology Under Uncertain Environment

Abstract

In this paper, women's empowerment in different states of India is considered. Based on considered data sets, the states of India are ranked with Decision-Making (MCDM) methodology. Here, Generalized Triangular Intuitionistic Fuzzy Numbers (GTIFNs) are considered. Here, GTIFNs are taken to deal with the uncertainty and we introduce a new de-fuzzification method for converting the GTIFNs to corresponding crisp values. Here, we have applied two MCDM techniques namely the Entropy-weighted method and Vlekriterijumsko KOmpromisno Rangiranje (VIKOR) method. The entropy-weighted method is used for evaluating the criteria weights and the VIKOR method is applied to rank the alternatives. Last, to verify the stability and vagueness of the system, we perform sensitivity and comparative analysis. © 2024 World Scientific Publishing Company.
