qR-CODAS — q-Rung Orthopair extension of CODAS
QR-CODAS (qR-CODAS — q-Rung Orthopair extension of CODAS) is a ranking multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) method introduced by Naz, S., Akram, M., Sattar, A., Al-Shamiri, M. M. A.

When to use it
QR-CODAS extends CODAS to q-ROFN inputs. Step 1 applies q-ROFN complement for cost criteria and Liu-Wang 2018 q-ROFWA per-criterion weighting; q-ROFN tuples persist through Step 2 (coordinate-wise NIS). Step 3 reduces q-ROFN to crisp scalars via Du 2018 q-ROF Euclidean (E_i) and Hamming (T_i) distances from the NIS. Step 4 builds the relative assessment h_ik with the standard CODAS threshold function ψ (default τ = 0.02). Step 5 sums h_ik into AS_i and ranks descending. NO score-function defuzzification is performed — the distance step is the natural q-ROFN → crisp reduction in CODAS.
Strengths & limitations
- 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.
- Assumes full compensation — a strong score on one criterion can offset a weak score on another.
