Fuzzy MCDA (FMCDA) model implies comparison, choice or ranking alternatives based on assessing corresponding functions with subsequent ranking of FNs. Despite the wide use of FMCDA in recent decades, the effect of the violation of axioms for fuzzy ranking methods on FMCDA models has not been explored yet. This paper aims at demonstrating the violation of the basic MCDA axiom, associated with ranking of dominating and dominated in Pareto alternatives, by fuzzy TOPSIS and fuzzy MAVT models as an example. The suggestion to implement FMCDA models in applications without violation of the basic axiom is elicited based on the use of distinguishable fuzzy numbers.}, year = {2021}, journal = {Neural Computing and Applications}, volume = {33}, pages = {1711–1732}, issn = {1433-3058}, url = {https://doi.org/10.1007/s00521-020-05053-9}, doi = {10.1007/s00521-020-05053-9}, }
