Granular computing and optimization model-based method for large-scale group decision-making and its application
In large-scale group decision-making process, some decision makers hesitate among several linguistic terms and cannot compare
some alternatives, so they often express evaluation information
with incomplete hesitant fuzzy linguistic preference relations.
How to obtain suitable large-scale group decision-making results
from incomplete preference information is an important and
interesting issue to concern about. After analyzing the existing
researches, we find that: i) the premise that complete preference
relation is perfectly consistent is too strict, ii) deleting all incomplete linguistic preference relations that cannot be fully completed will lose valid assessment information, iii) semantics given
by decision makers are greatly possible to be changed during the
consistency improving process. In order to solve these issues, this
work proposes a novel method based on Granular computing
and optimization model for large-scale group decision-making,
considering the original consistency of incomplete hesitant fuzzy
linguistic preference relation and improving its consistency without changing semantics during the completion process. An illustrative example and simulation experiments demonstrate the
rationality and advantages of the proposed method: i) semantics
are not changed during the consistency improving process, ii)
completion process does not significantly alter the inherent quality of information, iii) complete preference relations are globally
consistent, iv) final large-scale group decision-making result is
acquired by fusing complete preference relations with different weights
The generalized dice similarity measures for multiple attribute decision making with hesitant fuzzy linguistic information
In this paper, we shall present some novel Dice similarity measures of hesitant fuzzy linguistic term sets and the generalized Dice similarity measures of hesitant fuzzy linguistic term sets and indicate that the Dice similarity measures and asymmetric measures (projection measures) are the special cases of the generalized Dice similarity measures in some parameter values. Then, we propose the generalized Dice similarity measures-based multiple attribute decision making models with hesitant fuzzy linguistic term sets. Finally, a practical example concerning the evaluation of the quality of movies is given to illustrate the applicability and advantage of the proposed generalized Dice similarity measure

REVIEW OF MODELING PREFERENCES FOR DECISION MODELS
A group decision problem is set in environments where there is a common issue to solve, a set of possible options to choose, and a set of individuals who are experts and express their opinions about the set of possible alternatives with the intention to reach a collective decision as the unique solution of the problem in question. The modeling of the preferences of the decision-maker is an essential stage in the construction of models used in the theory of decision, operations research, economics, etc. On decision problems experts use models of representation of preferences that are close to their disciplines or fields of work. The structures of information most commonly used for the representation of the preferences of experts are vectors of utility, orders of preference and preference relations. In decision problems, the expression of preferences domain is the domain of information used by the experts to express their preferences, the main are numerical, linguistic, and intervalar stressing the multi-granular linguistic. This paper is a review of these concepts. Its purpose is to provide a guide of bibliographic references for these concepts, which are briefly discussed in this document
On aggregation process in linguistic decision making framework
When solving a problem, human beings must face situations in which they should choose among different alternatives by means of reasoning and mental processes. Many of these decision problems are under uncertain environments including vague, imprecise and subjective information that is usually modeled by fuzzy linguistic approach. This approach uses linguistic information or natural language words and its relation to mental reasoning processes of the experts when expressing their assessments. In a decision process multiple criteria can be evaluated which involving multiple experts with different degrees of knowledge. Such process can be modeled by using Multi-granular Linguistic Information (MGLI) and Computing with Words (CW) processes to solve the related decision problems. Once decision makers (experts) provided their opinions, it is necessary to combine all these opinions to obtain a single overall result that can be interpreted. An aggregation operator allows accomplishing this objective calculating a global value in different ways. In this paper we study the use of aggregation operators in multi-criteria decision-making processes comparing them and obtaining conclusions about their use in our framework. Furthermore, we propose a new aggregation operator taking into account the criteria importance to evaluate the alternatives, and then an illustrative example shows its outcomes.WATCC - IV Workshop aspectos teóricos de ciencia de la computaciónRed de Universidades con Carreras en Informática (RedUNCI

Pythagorean 2-tuple linguistic power aggregation operators in multiple attribute decision making
In this paper, we investigate the multiple attribute decision making
problems with Pythagorean 2-tuple linguistic information.
Then, we utilize power average and power geometric operations
to develop some Pythagorean 2-tuple linguistic power aggregation
operators: Pythagorean 2-tuple linguistic power weighted
average (P2TLPWA) operator, Pythagorean 2-tuple linguistic power
weighted geometric (P2TLPWG) operator, Pythagorean 2-tuple linguistic
power ordered weighted average (P2TLPOWA) operator,
Pythagorean 2-tuple linguistic power ordered weighted geometric
(P2TLPOWG) operator, Pythagorean 2-tuple linguistic power
hybrid average (P2TLPHA) operator and Pythagorean 2-tuple linguistic
power hybrid geometric (P2TLPHG) operator. The prominent
characteristic of these proposed operators are studied. Then,
we have utilized these operators to develop some approaches to
solve the Pythagorean 2-tuple linguistic multiple attribute decision
making problems. Finally, a practical example for enterprise
resource planning (ERP) system selection is given to verify the
developed approach and to demonstrate its practicality and
effectiveness
