Table 16

Comparison with other existing methods for deriving the experts’ weights.

Method	Measurement tool	The final results
Method in [27]	Distance	The consistency between the individual expert and the group
Methods in [24, 25, 30]	Consensus degree	The consistency between the individual expert and the group
Method in [23]	Distance	Similarity
	Distance	Proximity
Proposed method	Divergence degree	The consistency between the individual expert and the group
	Knowledge measure	The fuzziness of the information provided by the individual expert
