Topsis- based non-Iinear programming model for calculating the ldeal weights of the decision

The development of Multiple Criteria Decision Making Techniques is to provide the possibility of using multiple criteria in decision making problems. Multi-criteria decision making problems primarily relate to choosing the best option among several available options and according to some indicators. One of the major issues in this regard is to determine the importance weights of decision criteria. Various methods such as Entropy, LINMAP and Saaty’s method have been presented for determining the weights of the indicators. In this paper, a non-linear model based on the logic of TOPSIS method is proposed to estimate the ideal weights. Simplicity, ‌ Reduction of received data from the decision makers in the evaluation process, and the possibility of considering his comments about the preference of indicators to each other can be cited as the advantages of this method
