Robust Minimum Cost Consensus Model for Multicriteria Decision-Making under Uncertain Circumstances

Recently, the consensus model of group decision-making in uncertain circumstances has received extensive attention. Existing models focus on either minimum cost (maintain the total budget) or maximum utility (improve satisfaction). Based on the minimum cost consensus model, a new multicriteria robus...

Description
Summary:Recently, the consensus model of group decision-making in uncertain circumstances has received extensive attention. Existing models focus on either minimum cost (maintain the total budget) or maximum utility (improve satisfaction). Based on the minimum cost consensus model, a new multicriteria robust minimum cost consensus model with utility preference is proposed in this paper. Firstly, considering the inherent uncertainty of input data, the unit adjustment cost of experts is described under three robust scenarios. Subsequently, a cost consensus model that expresses the views of decision-makers in a variety of uncertain preference forms such as utility function and Gaussian distribution is proposed. Finally, through the application in emergency decision-making, the cost model and the utility model were compared and analyzed to verify the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed model.
