Abstract

The standard TOPSIS has many defects on the definition of ideal solution and negative-ideal solution, setting of weight and the calculation of relative approachable degree, which leads to rank reversal. Therefore, in this paper, the relative ideal solution and negative-ideal solution will be substituted with absolute ideal solution and negative-ideal solution. And then, the formula of relative approachable degree is improved based on project method. Through an example, we show that the improved method has better stability and consistency.
