Abstract
Analytic network Process (ANP) can model the inner and outer dependencies and feedbacks between the decision-making elements in a network. It calculates the correct weights of criteria, and local and global priorities of alternatives in the presence of dependencies and feedbacks. Classical ANP is a multicriteria decision making method under certainty. However, it can be used under neutrosophic uncertainty. This chapter develops a neutrosophic fuzzy ANP method and illustrates its usage and validity through the solution of a supplier selection problem in a firm manufacturing automobile spare parts.
