Abstract

This paper discusses the significance of the multi-level multiobjective quadratic fractional programming problem (ML-MOQFPP) within hierarchical organizations and the challenges it faces in achieving success. It introduces the M-TOPSIS approach, which aims to address these challenges by utilizing membership functions and distances of the positive and negative ideal solutions at each level. The primary objective of M-TOPSIS is to maximize membership goals while minimizing deviational variables, thereby obtaining optimal outcomes for decision variables. It elaborates on the problem formulation involving multi-level multiobjective decision-making with quadratic constraints, emphasizing the minimization of fractional quadratic functions at each level through the M-TOPSIS algorithm. Additionally, it provides an illustrative numerical example and algorithm to validate the proposed methodology, concluding with comparative discussions against existing approaches.
