A Satisficing Heuristic Decision-Making Model under Limited Attention and Incomplete Preferences

Journal of Mathematics, 2021
Classical choice theory assumes that a decision-maker considers all feasible alternatives. However, a decision-maker in the real world can not consider all alternatives because of limited attention. In this paper, we propose a satisficing choice model to

An Approach to the Automatic Comparison of Reference Point-Based Interactive Methods for Multiobjective Optimization

IEEE Access, 2021
Solving multiobjective optimization problems means finding the best balance among multiple conflicting objectives. This needs preference information from a decision maker who is a domain expert. In interactive methods, the decision maker takes part in an
