摘要
Based on the transfer formulas of fuzzy preference matrix and multiplicative preference matrix, this paper presents an approach to improving consistency of fuzzy preference matrix and gives a practical iterative algorithm to derive a modified fuzzy preference matrix with acceptable consistency. By using two criteria, we can judge whether the modification is acceptable or not. Finally, a numerical example is given to show the feasibility and effectiveness of the algorithm.
