information representations, the management of unification of heterogeneous information …

Distributed linguistic representations are powerful tools for modelling the uncertainty and
complexity of preference information in linguistic decision making. To provide a …

This paper proposes a novel consensus reaching model for multi-attribute group decision
making (MAGDM) with information represented by means of linguistic distribution …

In group decision-making problems, decision makers prefer to use several linguistic terms to
describe their own perception and knowledge, and give their preference intensity of each …

In most existing linguistic distribution multiple criteria group decision-making (MCGDM)
models, the sample size of group linguistic distribution assessment (LDA) is often neglected …

Linguistic distribution expressions provide a flexible way for decision makers to express their
opinions in linguistic decision making. When working with a linguistic distribution, words …

A linguistic distribution assessment is an effective approach to represent uncertain
preferences in large-scale group decision making (LSGDM). The same word often signifies …

In this paper, we propose the concept of distribution assessments in a linguistic term set, and
study the operational laws of linguistic distribution assessments. The weighted averaging …

In real decision making, due to the limitation of knowledge, problem complexity and time
pressure, it is natural that decision makers express their opinions with incomplete linguistic …

In this study, we provide an expertise-based weight allocation approach for heterogeneous
experts with incomplete linguistic preference relations (ILPRs) in heterogeneous group …
