This paper proposes a large-scale group decision-making problem based on Pythagorean linguistic preference relation, introducing a consensus model to address non-cooperative behaviors of experts. By dividing experts into subgroups using the grey clustering method and managing non-cooperative behaviors, the proposed approach demonstrates practical usefulness in achieving consensus in group decision-making with a large number of experts.
To represent qualitative aspect of uncertainty and imprecise information, linguistic preference relation (LPR) is a powerful tool for experts expressing their opinions in group decision-making (GDM) according to linguistic variables (LVs). Since for an LV, it generally means that membership degree is one, and non-membership and hesitation degrees of the experts cannot be expressed. Pythagorean linguistic numbers/values (PLNs/PLVs) are novel choice to address this issue. The aim of this paper which we propose a GDM problem involved a large number of the experts is called large-scale GDM (LSGDM) based on Pythagorean linguistic preference relation (PLPR) with a consensus model. Sometimes, the experts do not modify their opinions to achieve consensus. Therefore, the experts' proper opinions' management with their non-cooperative behaviors (NCBs) is necessary to establish a consensus model. At the same time, it is essential to ensure the proper adjustment of the credibility information. The proposed model using grey clustering method is divided with the experts' similar evaluations into a subgroup. Then, we aggregate the experts' evaluations in each cluster. A cluster consensus index (CCI) and a group consensus index (GCI) are presented to measure consensus level among the clusters. Then, we provide a mechanism for managing the NCBs of the clusters, which contain two parts: (1) NCB degree is defined using CCI and GCI for identifying the NCBs of the clusters; (2) implemented the weight punishment mechanism of the NCBs clusters to consensus improvement. Finally, an example is offered for usefulness of the proposed approach.
