Grey Relation Analysis Formulae


Step 1:

ai ( k )−min ⁡( ai ( k ))
x ¿i ( k ) = (higher the better)
max ( ai ( k ) )−min ⁡(a i ( k ))
ma x ( ai ( k ) ) −ai ( k ) s
x ¿i ( k ) = (smaller the better)
max ( ai ( k ) )−min ⁡(a i ( k ))
Where
x ¿i ( k )  normalized values for the obtained output response a i(k )
i  experimental number
k  comparability sequence
max ⁡(ai ( k ) )  maximum values within the output response a i(k )
min ⁡(ai ( k ) )  minimum values within the output response a i( k )
Step 2:
Δ oi ( k )=¿ x ¿o ( k )−x ¿i ( k )∨¿
Where
¿
Δ oi (k )  deviation sequence from the reference sequence x o (k )
x ¿i ( k)  comparability sequence
Step 3:
Δmin +ζ Δ max
ξ i ( k )=
Δ oi ( k )+ ζ Δmax
Where
ξ i (k )  Grey relation coefficient (GRC)
Δ min  minimum value of obtained sequence
Δ max  maximum value of obtained sequence
ζ  identification coefficient, normally taken as 0.5
Step 4:
n
1
γ i = ∑ ξi ( k )
n k=1
Where
γ i  Grey Relation Grade (GRG) for i th trial
n  number of trials
