The purpose of this paper is to present a classiication method of alternatives for multiple preference ordering criteria based on the concept of fuzzy majority. The fuzzy majority is represented by a fuzzy quantiier, and applied in the aggregation by means of an OWA operator whose weights are calculated by the fuzzy quantiier. For every preference ordering criterion we derive a preference order...

The paper deals with the valued comparison of intervals for decision making. Interval orders are classical preference structures where the comparison of intervals is done in an ordinal way. In this paper we focus on valued comparison where more information, especially the distance between end-points of intervals, is used in order to have more sophisticated preference relations. The generalizati...

Is a manager's likability important from an employee's perspective? Research results in this field are scant and inconsistent. The current study explored employees' response to managers' likability and the moderating effect of power distance at both the cultural and individual levels. In study 1, following the countercultural priming experimental paradigm proposed by Van den Bos et al. (2013), ...

In this paper it is presented the use of preference degrees to solve decision-making problems where linguistic preference relations are used to represent decision-makers' opinions. From a linguistic preference relation are deened a linguistic non-dominance degree, a linguistic dominance degree, and a stric domoninance degree, using linguistic quantiiers and the ordered weight linguistic aggrega...

This study suggested a new similarity measured method that based on the map distance operator to solve before similarity measurement between interval-valued fuzzy numbers. In addition, some properties of the proposed similarity measure have been demonstrated, and 19 sets of interval-valued fuzzy numbers are adopted to compare the proposed method with existing similarity measures. The results of...

The selection of seismic attributes is a key process in reservoir prediction because the prediction accuracy relies on the reliability and credibility of the seismic attributes. However, effective selection method for useful seismic attributes is still a challenge. This paper presents a novel selection method of seismic attributes for reservoir prediction based on the gray relational degree (GR...

The production task queue has a great significance for manufacturing resource allocation and scheduling decision. Man-made qualitative queue optimization method has a poor effect and makes the application difficult. A production task queue optimization method is proposed based on multi-attribute evaluation. According to the task attributes, the hierarchical multi-attribute model is established ...
