We aim to classify alternatives evaluated in multiple criteria among preference ordered classes assuming an underlying additive utility function. We develop a probabilistic classification method by calculating the probability of an alternative being in each class. We assign alternatives to classes based on threshold probabilities. We require the decision maker to place an alternative to a class when no alternatives satisfy the required thresholds. We find new probabilities for unassigned alternatives in the light of new information and repeat the procedure until all alternatives are classified. We implemented our algorithm to classify MBA programs among preference ordered groups. We evaluate our algorithm based on the number of misclassified alternatives and the number of alternatives placed by the decision maker.

Managing production and lead time quotation with multiple demand classes
Sayın, Ece; Savaşaneril Tüfekci, Seçil; Department of Industrial Engineering (2010)
In this study, we investigate several facets of a due-date quotation problem and develop a model considering jointly due-date quotation, order acceptance and base-stock decisions in a hybrid make-to-stock (MTS) / make-to-order (MTO) and multi-class system with lead time sensitive Poisson demand and exponentially distributed service times. We seek to maximize profit considering lateness penalties and holding costs in the model. We consider three alternative due-date quotation policies each having different p...
On the service models for dynamic scheduling of multi-class base-stock controlled systems
Kat, Bora; Avşar, Zeynep Müge; Department of Industrial Engineering (2005)
This study is on the service models for dynamic scheduling of multi-class make-to-stock systems. An exponential single-server facility processes different types of items one by one and demand arrivals for different item types occur according to independent Poisson processes. Inventories of the items are managed by base-stock policies and backordering is allowed. The objective is to minimize base-stock investments or average inventory holding costs subject to a constraint on the aggregate fill rate, which is...
A comparison of data mining methods for prediction and classification types of quality problems
Anaklı, Zeynep; Anaklı, Zeynep; Department of Industrial Engineering (2009)
In this study, an Analytic Network Process (ANP) and Preference Ranking Organization MeTHod for Enrichment Evaluations (PROMETHEE) based approach is developed and used to compare overall performance of some commonly used classification and prediction data mining methods on quality improvement data, according to several decision criteria. Classification and prediction data mining (DM) methods are frequently used in many areas including quality improvement. Previous studies on comparison of performance of the...
The inventory routing problem with deterministic order-up-to level inventory policies
Pınar, Özlem; Süral, Haldun; Department of Industrial Engineering (2005)
This study is concerned with the inventory routing problem with deterministic, dynamic demand and order-up-to level inventory policy. The problem mainly arises in the supply chain management context. It incorporates simultaneous decision making on inventory management and vehicle routing with the purpose of gaining advantage from coordinated decisions. An integrated mathematical model that represents the features of the problem is presented. Due to the magnitude of the model, lagrangean relaxation solution ...
A heuristic approach for profit oriented disassembly lot-sizing problem
Kaya, Melike; Bayındır, Zeynep Pelin; Çetinkaya, Ferda Can; Department of Industrial Engineering (2011)
In this thesis, we work on adisassembly lot-sizing problem for multiple products with parts commonality,i.e., general product structure. We assume that supply of discarded products is infinite. When a product (or a subassembly) is disassembled, all its immediate child items are obtained,i.e., complete disassembly case.Intermediate and leaf items obtained are demandedbyexternal suppliers or remanufacturers. The maximum possible salesfor each intermediate and leaf item are known.Sales of the intermediate and ...
