  • Abstract
    We present a new method of finding the fuzzy weights in fuzzy hierarchical analysis which is the direct fuzzification of the original method used by Saaty (1980) in the analytic hierarchy process. We test our new procedure in two cases where there are formulas for the crisp weights. An example is presented where there are five criteria and three alternatives.
