Fermatean extension of FF-CODAS

OriginatorSenapati, T. Yager, R. R.Year2020Sources1Related methods8

FF-CODAS (Fermatean extension of FF-CODAS) is a ranking multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) method introduced by Senapati, T. Yager, R. R. in 2020. It turns a decision matrix of alternatives scored on multiple criteria into a structured, reproducible result.

Key highlights

  • Follows a transparent, reproducible computational procedure that can be audited step by step.
  • Handles multiple criteria of differing scales and units within a single decision matrix.

When to use it

ff-codas extends FF-CODAS to handle Fermatean uncertainty. All arithmetic operations (normalisation, weighting, distance computation) are performed using Fermatean Fuzzy Set (FFS: μ, ν; μ³+ν³ ≤ 1) algebra. The final scores are defuzzified via score function S = μ³ − ν³ before ranking.

Strengths & limitations

Strengths
  • Follows a transparent, reproducible computational procedure that can be audited step by step.
  • Handles multiple criteria of differing scales and units within a single decision matrix.
Limitations
  • Assumes full compensation — a strong score on one criterion can offset a weak score on another.
