In view of the multi-attribute decision making problems which the attribute values are in the forms of interval numbers, the paper presents an entropy method to obtain the attribute weights using the relative superiority concept. Firstly, the concept of this kind of problem is explained; Then in the light of the basic principle of the traditional entropy value method and train of thought, it given the calculation steps of weights using the relative superiority about the attribute value is interval number multiple attribute decision making problems. Its core is that relative superiority judgment matrix is obtained by comparing with two sets of interval numbers under the same indicator, which the group of interval numbers is equivalently mapped to the exact value form with the merits of relationship, then the weights of each indicator are calculated. Finally, the method is illustrated by giving an example.
