  • Ranking fuzzy numbers, a significant component in decision making process, supports a decision maker in selecting the optimal solution. Althoung there are many existing ranking methods for fuzzy numbers, most of them suffer from some shortcomings. To overcome these shortcomings, this study proposes a new ranking approach for both normal and generalized fuzzy numbers that ensures full consideration of all information of fuzzy numbers. The proposed approach integrates the concept of centroid point, the left and the right (LR) areas between fuzzy numbers, height of a fuzzy number and the degree of decision maker’s optimism. Several numerical examples are presented to illustrate the efficiency and superiority of the proposed.
    To reduce uncertainty in decision making and avoid loss of information, this study also proposed a new fuzzy multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) approach based on the proposed ranking method for generalized fuzzy numbers. The applicability of the proposed fuzzy MCMD model is illustrated through a case study.
