On consensus reaching process based on social network analysis in uncertain linguistic group decision making: Exploring limited trust propagation and preference modification attitudes

Xiao Tan et al.

Summary: This paper explores a limited trust propagation-based consensus model that considers individual attitudes for preference modification in a social network setting with uncertain preference information. The model proposes a new measure of comprehensive relative out-degree centrality to determine individual attitudes towards modification, and utilizes a multi-objective programming model to reach consensus levels when individual willingness is too low. The proposed feedback mechanism aims to narrow individual acceptable modification ranges based on the previous adjustment rules to simulate personalized decision behavior.

Minimum conflict consensus with budget constraint based on social network analysis br

Yuxiang Yuan et al.

Summary: This paper investigates a consensus-building approach based on minimum conflicts under a budget constraint to mitigate conflicts in the consensus reaching process. The approach involves constructing a conflict network among decision-makers, analyzing the structure of the network to obtain weights, and developing various consensus models to handle different behaviors. Three minimum cost budget models are also constructed. The proposed consensus models are validated using a case study on trans-boundary water pollution treatments.

A cyclic dynamic trust-based consensus model for large-scale group decision making with probabilistic linguistic information

Xiao Tan et al.

Summary: This study investigates a consensus reaching process considering dynamic trust in large-scale group decision making. The dynamic nature of trust is explored through two stages, with a clustering technique used to classify decision makers and an optimization model constructed to obtain trust degrees between subgroups. A cyclic dynamic trust mechanism is established, showing the model's universality and superiority in fully considering decision makers' utility and centrality in the network.
