TOPSIS implementation in Python

What is TOPSIS

Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) originated in the 1980s as a multi-criteria decision making method. TOPSIS chooses the alternative of shortest Euclidean distance from the ideal solution, and greatest distance from the negative-ideal solution. More details at wikipedia.


Installation

How to use this package ?


In Terminal

$ python3 -m topsis_package.topsis input.csv "1,1,1,1,2" "+,+,-,+,+" output.csv

In Python:

from topsis_package.topsis import *

filepath = "input.csv"
weights  = "1,1,1,1,2"
impacts  = "+,-,+,-,+"
output   = "output.csv"

topsis = TOPSIS(filepath, impacts, weights, output)

# Method 1: Stepwise

topsis.readCSV()
topsis.normalize()
topsis.weight_assignment()
topsis.find_ibw()
topsis.euclidean_distance()
topsis.performance_score()
topsis.find_rank()
topsis.storeCSV(output)

# Method 2: Automated

topsis.auto()


"""
Attributs provided under TOPSIS :
filepath    : Input file path.
filename    : Extracted filename from filepath
impacts     : given impacts
weights     : given weithts
output      : output file name
odf         : output data
df          : modified dataframe
sp          : S+
sn          : S-
scores      : performance score
ideal_worst : V+
ideal_best  : V-

Usage:
    topsis = TOPSIS(filepath, impacts, weights, output)
    topsis.df
