Failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) is a system activity that identifies, evaluates and
eliminates potential failure modes (FMs) in a system/process to enhance the quality and …

Since the hard consensus is difficult and costly to achieve in group decision making (GDM),
it is reasonable and necessary for decision makers (DMs) to reach a soft consensus within a …

This paper investigates how to conduct bidirectional feedback mechanism by establishing
trust chains in social network group decision making (SN-GDM), which is more applicable …

Large-scale group decision-making (LSGDM) is characterised by a large number of experts
and a complex consensus reaching process. Clustering is used to divide the large group …

This study proposes a minimum cost consensus-based failure mode and effect analysis
(MCC-FMEA) framework considering experts' limited compromise and tolerance behaviors …

Decision makers (DMs) may exhibit non-cooperative behaviors such as deviating from
recommendations or making only minor modifications in consensus-based group decision …

In the consensus reaching process (CRP), the asymmetric trust relationships among
decision-makers (DMs) and discrepancies of DMs' opinions may exacerbate the intra-group …

This paper proposes a decentralized feedback mechanism to help large-scale decision
makers (DMs) reach consensus considering the limited compromise behavior of subgroups …

Consensus reaching process (CRP), as an essential part of group decision making (GDM),
can facilitate more effective consensus by taking human behaviors into account. Extending …

In group decision making (GDM), considering the individuals' satisfaction (ie, utilities) about
the consensus result is important. However, this issue is ignored by the extant minimum cost …
