Abstract: For this article, we shall expand the TODIM model to the MADM with the picture fuzzy numbers (PFNs). Firstly, the concept, comparative method and distance of PFNs are introduced and the traditional TODIM model is presented. Then, the expanded TODIM model is developed to solve MADM problems with PFNs. Finally, a numerical example is given to verify the proposed approach.
