MULTI-ATTRIBUTE DECISION MAKING BASED ON LABEL SEMANTICS

International Journal of Uncertainty, Fuzziness and Knowledge-Based Systems, 2008
We propose label semantics as an integrated representation framework for probabilistic uncertainty and fuzziness in multiple-attribute decision making problems. Linguistic attribute hierarchies are then introduced as a means of modelling the complex and often imprecise functional relationships between low-level attributes or measurements and high ...

A new multi-perspective framework for multi-attribute decision making

Expert Systems with Applications, 2010
This paper proposes a new multi-perspective framework for multi-attribute decision making, and illustrates its mathematical descriptions and procedure. The main steps of the procedure are: construct the attribute set; construct the evaluation object set; construct evaluation perspectives with corresponding attributes and weights; select evaluation ...

A Proxy Approach to Multi-Attribute Decision Making

Management Science, 1978
This paper combines two rival preference modeling techniques in a new approach to multi-attribute decision making. Currently existing multi-attribute procedures use either global or local preference modeling. In the global modeling technique, a single preference function is constructed in the large; its maximum is the optimal alternative. In the local

Multi-attribute decision making with generalized fuzzy numbers

Journal of the Operational Research Society, 2015
This paper proposes a multi-attribute decision-making method with generalized fuzzy numbers (GFNs). In the proposed method, the distance between GFNs is calculated using the Hausdorff distance. Based on the maximizing deviation degree, the attribute weights are determined by a linear programming model.

Probability numbers for multi-attribute decision-making

Journal of Intelligent & Fuzzy Systems
In the face of increasingly complex data forms and decision-making problems, the uncertainty of information poses a major challenge to multi-attribute decision-making methods. How to effectively organize information and serve realistic decision-making problems has attracted extensive attention in the academic circles.

Multi-attribute decision making with dynamic weight allocation

Intelligent Decision Technologies, 2014
This paper tries to solve the multiple attributes decision-making problems with dynamic weight allocation. It is difficult to represent decision maker's subjectivity if we use only objective method in the whole decision-making process. Because of the complexity of attribute weight allocation, it could not reflect the objective essence only based on ...

Linguistic multi-attribute decision making with multiple priorities

Computers & Industrial Engineering, 2017
Abstract Linguistic multi-attribute decision making (MADM) problems have received many attentions in theoretical and practical aspects. It is well known that center of the linguistic MADM is the aggregation of fuzzy linguistic information. As one widely used type of aggregation operators, the importance weighted aggregation assumes that all the ...

Multi-attribute decision-making in macaques relies on direct attribute comparisons

2023
Abstract In value-based decisions, there are frequently multiple attributes, such as cost, quality, or quantity, that contribute to the overall goodness of an option. Since one option may not be better in all attributes at once, the decision process should include a means of weighing relevant attributes.

Novel Method of Hybrid Multi-Attribute Decision Making

2008 Fifth International Conference on Fuzzy Systems and Knowledge Discovery, 2008
This paper studies the problem of hybrid multi-attribute decision making which integrates with precision numbers, interval numbers and fuzzy numbers. Based on the grey relative degree, a novel decision making method is presented. Then a decision making example is given to demonstrate the feasibility and rationality of this new method.

A compromised approach to multi-attribute decision making in IF-sets

2010 Seventh International Conference on Fuzzy Systems and Knowledge Discovery, 2010
The aim of this paper is to extend the VIKOR method to an intuitionistic fuzzy compromise approach to multi-attribute decision making (MADM) in intuitionistic fuzzy (IF) sets. The VIKOR method presumes crisp data while fuzziness is inherent in decision information and decision making process.
