This study investigated six international distribution center (DC) selection factors from a foreign market perspective and presented a weighted fuzzy factor rating system (FRS) suitable for solving such problems. An evaluation procedure is illustrated to demonstrate that our procedure is an effective approach in a group decision-making process. In contrast with classic decision-making theory, t...

This paper presents a fuzzy goal programming (FGP) procedure for solving multilevel programming problems (MLPPs) having chance constraints in large hierarchical decision organizations. In the proposed approach, first the chance constraints of a problem are converted into their respective deterministic equivalent in the decision making context. Then, the objective functions of decision makers (D...

Over the past decades the complexity of financial decisions has increased rapidly, thus highlighting the importance of developing and implementing sophisticated and efficient quantitative analysis techniques for supporting and aiding financial decision making. Multi-criteria decision aid (MCDA), an advanced field of operations research, provides financial decision makers (DMs) and analysts a wi...

For decades, the spread of disinformation in online social networks (OSNs) has been a serious issue. Disinformation via media can easily mislead people’s beliefs toward or against an event that may their behaviors based on misbeliefs. The game theory approaches have proposed under dynamic settings to limit adverse influences disinformation. It is challenge expand users’ strategies from spreadin...

ELECTRE TRI is a well-known method to assign a set of alternatives to a set of predefined categories, considering multiple criteria. Using this method requires setting many parameters, which is often a difficult task. We consider the case where the decision makers (DMs) in the decision process are unsure of which values should each parameter take, which may result from uncertain, imprecise or i...

A number of GDM models have been proposed to aggregate such kind of preferences in the literature. However, most of the ...

Probabilistic dual hesitant fuzzy set (PDHFS) is a more powerful and important tool to describe uncertain information regarded as generalization of (HFS) HFS (DHFS), not only reflects the attitude decision-makers (DMs), but also probability DMs. Score function number weighting method are very in multi-attribute group decision-making (MAGDM) issues. In many environments, score entropy measure ha...

We study stochastic static teams with countably infinite number of decision makers (DMs), the goal obtaining (globally) optimal policies under a decentralized information structure. present sufficient conditions to connect concepts team optimality and person-by-person for DMs. show that uniform integrability convergence conditions, an policy DMs can be established as limit sequences $N$ $N \to ...
