Decision Making for Inconsistent Expert Judgments Using Negative Probabilities

نویسنده

  • Jose Acacio de Barros
چکیده

In this paper we provide a simple random-variable example of inconsistent information, and analyze it using three different approaches: Bayesian, quantum-like, and negative probabilities. We then show that, at least for this particular example, both the Bayesian and the quantum-like approaches have less normative power than the negative probabilities one.

Fuzzy AHP-based multicriteria decision making systems using particle swarm optimization

This paper presents a fuzzy optimization model to solve multicriteria decision making (MCDM) systems based on a fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (fuzzy AHP). To deal with the imprecise judgments of decision makers, a fuzzy AHP decision making model is proposed as an evaluation tool, where the expert’s comparison judgments are translated into fuzzy numbers. Unlike the conventional fuzzy AHP meth...

Solving multi-criteria decision making with incomplete linguistic preference relations

This study proposes some issues to solve the Incomplete Linguistic Preference Relations under Multi-Criteria Decision Making. The proposed method has simple calculation and can speed up the process of comparison and selection of alternative. Experts obtain the matrix by choosing a finite and fixed set of alternatives and perform a pairwise comparison based on their different preferences and kno...

Decision Analysis with Indeterminate or Incoherent Probabilities*

This paper presents a new method of modeling indeterminate and incoherent probability judgments in decision analysis problems. The decision maker's degree of beliefs in the occurrence of an event is represented by a unimodal (in fact, concave) function on the unit interval, whose parameters are elicited in terms of lowcr and upper probabilities with attached confidence weights. This is shown to...

Interval-Valued Hesitant Fuzzy Method based on Group Decision Analysis for Estimating Weights of Decision Makers

In this paper, a new soft computing group decision method based on the concept of compromise ratio is introduced for determining decision makers (DMs)' weights through the group decision process under uncertainty. In this method, preferences and judgments of the DMs or experts are expressed by linguistic terms for rating the industrial alternatives among selected criteria as well as the relativ...

Predictors, consequence, and measurement of ethical judgments: Review and meta-analysis

a r t i c l e i n f o As a central construct in theories of ethical decision making, ethical judgments have been the subject of more than one hundred empirical studies. Despite its size, the ethical judgments literature seems to lack clarity in three areas. First, empirical results are sometimes inconsistent or contradictory across studies. Second, a broad array of diverse measures of ethical j...
