Abstract The main objective of this article is to lay the foundations a novel multi-criteria optimization technique, namely, complex Pythagorean fuzzy N -soft VIKOR (CPFNS-VIKOR) method that highly proficient express great deal linguistic imprecision and vagueness inherent in human assessments. This strategy provides versatile decision-making tool for ranking-based modeling two-dimensional para...

This chapter provides an overview of a series of multiple criteria optimization-based data mining methods, which utilize multiple criteria programming (MCP) to solve data mining problems , and outlines some research challenges and opportunities for the data mining community. To achieve these goals, this chapter first introduces the basic notions and mathematical formulations for multiple criter...

Most complex scheduling problems are combinatorial problems and difficult to solve. That is why, several methods focus on the optimization according to a single criterion such as makespan, workloads of machines, waiting times, etc. In this paper, the Choquet integral is introduced as a general tool for dealing with multiple criteria decision making and used in optimization flexible job-shop sch...
