Grey Relational Analysis
Grey relational analysis (GRA) or Grey analysis is a technique by measure the degree of estimate among sequences relating to the grey relational grade (GRG).
It consist of four steps where normalizing of the input data is required, calculation of deviation sequence, estimation of grey relational coefficient and final the grey relational grade (GRG) will be estimated based on the weights. The weights can be calculated by using AHP method and CRITIC method also.
The different steps used in the GRA method will be discussed here. The video tutorials and the solved case study spreadsheets will be also shared.
Steps in Grey relational analysis
Step 1 Normalizing the data - here the data consists of different dimensions, the target here the data need to normalized in between 0 to 1.
For Higher the better
For Lower the better
Step 2 Determining the deviation sequence by using the formula below
Step 3 Estimating the Grey relational Coefficient (GRC) by using the formula.
Here the coefficient of determination or distinguishing coefficient values lies between 0 to 1. Most of the researchers consider the distinguishing coefficient value for GRA is 0.5, because to weaken the influence if the deviation sequence Delta_max gets too big.
Step 4 the final step is grey relational grade (GRG) calculated by using this formula
Here, some of the researchers they estimate the weights by using some subjective weights methods like AHP method or objective weight methods like CRITIC. Some they also consider equal weights. If equal weights are consider w_k = 1.
Sir i need demo for Gray analysis by mini tab
ReplyDeleteWe cant do in Minitab, as it doesnot have the option to do it.
