Just Published: "Interval-Valued Spherical Fuzzy AHP: Citizen Engagement in Sustainable Urban Transport Development Plan". I'm happy to share a recent book chapter with Prof. Francesco Pilla, where we delve into a unique methodology to tackle critical urban transport development issues. We've employed the Interval-valued Spherical Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process, a powerful tool that considers hesitant scoring and synthesizes diverse stakeholder perspectives. In this work, we applied the Interval-valued spherical fuzzy AHP method to uncover key preferences for improving public bus transport, taking into account both users and non-users, the case study was for Mersin City, however, the next will be Dublin City.
