Summary: With the development of technology, investors are increasingly relying on computer software to guide their investments. This study proposes a two-stage portfolio selection model that considers investment data and expert opinions to address the issue of investors achieving the same expected return and risk level. By developing mathematical models suitable for trapezoidal fuzzy numbers, a new hybrid portfolio selection algorithm is introduced. The algorithm is tested using stock data from the Dow Jones Index, comparing total return amounts obtained by different methods for investment in January 2021.

Summary: This study assessed and predicted the vulnerability of Fars province to agrometeorological drought using 18 effective indicators and methods such as Fuzzy-AHP and second-order Markov chain. The results showed that the rain-fed cultivated area and slop were the most influential factors on drought vulnerability. The area was classified into moderate and severe vulnerability classes, with trends of decreasing and increasing vulnerability over the years.

Summary: This study introduces the concept of non-reciprocal fuzzy preference relations (NrFPRs) and proposes double-variance-based measuring formulas to compute the additive consistency indices. However, the study reveals that some properties and formulas proposed by previous researchers are incorrect, leading to redefining NrFPRs and developing new calculation methods.

Summary: This study presents a thermal camera-based abnormal-situation detection service and proposes an integrated Fuzzy AHP/TOPSIS model to support the decision-making process of introducing thermography cameras. The findings show that developers highly value services that can detect temperature changes to identify early signs of dangerous situations, while local governments prioritize control services related to citizen safety.

Summary: This paper presents the application of Fuzzy AHP-TOPSIS hybrid method in distance learning quality assessment surveys. Thirty-four judges with specific knowledge and skills were chosen to evaluate three alternatives by fourteen criteria, and statistical analysis was used to process the data. The study further provides useful guidelines for the development of an easily understandable hierarchy of criteria model reflecting the main goal of study quality assessment.

Summary: The green capacitated vehicle routing problem (GCVRP) has become a significant research topic due to the increasing global climate issues. This study presents an interactive fuzzy approach to solve GCVRP with imprecise travel time and supplier demands. The proposed model considers two objective functions: minimum fuel consumption and maximum green score. The model is applied to an automotive company in Turkey and provides a suggestion for vehicle routing.

Summary: A new data-driven fuzzy AHP method (FR-AHP) is proposed for landslide susceptibility mapping. The method is compared with FEA and FGM methods in a region in Turkey, and the AUC values are calculated. The results show that the FR-AHP method has the potential to be a feasible, objective, and high-performance approach.

Summary: This study completes an incomplete fuzzy weak preference relation in a consistent way to derive a preference relation that preserves the original information. A complete transitive preference relation is obtained if the decision maker is coherent, while a degree of transitivity is defined to provide the most coherent preference relation when preference values violate transitivity.
