摘要:

AbstractDespite being in existence for many decades, normative decision theory has not become a commonly used tool for real‐world decisions. This paper considers the reasons for this situation and suggestions for circumventing them. The main suggestion involves a two‐stage framework in terms of the information available to the decision maker and his/her expectations under the available acts. This framework is well suited for decisions with incomplete structure, which is typical of real decision situations. Within this framework a specific multiplicative model is also discus

摘要:

AbstractMost medium‐and long‐term decision making in industry and government can be viewed as dynamic multi‐criteria decision making (MCDM), in which the decision makers are free to alter the emphasis placed on each objective in the light of developing circumstances. In this paper the problem of time‐dependent weights in MCDM is discussed and an analysis of empirical data associated with dynamic decision making is pr

摘要:

AbstractFor a multidimensional criteria space to have an additive utility function, the strong condition of independence among the co‐ordinates (also known as separability) must be satisfied. However, if we are allowed to transform the criteria space into another, then a theorem due to Kolmogorov implies that we can, even in the absence of independence, transform the space into one that has a continuous additive utility function. Since this transformation is complex, it has only theoretical significance. However, certain related results from neurocomputing theory are quite practical and signify that there exists some scope for neurocomputing in multi‐criteria decision analy

摘要:

AbstractReal‐life decision problems are usually so complex that they cannot be modelled with a single objective function, thus creating a need for clear and efficient techniques for handling multiple criteria to support the decision process. A widely used technique and one commonly taught in general OR/MS courses is goal programming, which is clear and appealing. On the other hand, goal programming is strongly criticized by multiple‐criteria optimization specialists for its non‐compliance with the efficiency (Pareto‐optimality) principle. In this paper we show how the implementation techniques of goal programming can be used to model the reference point method and its extension, aspiration/reservation‐based decision support. Thereby we show a congruence between these approaches and suggest how the GP model with relaxation of some traditional assumptions can be extended to an efficient decision support technique meeting the efficiency principle and other standards of multiobjective optimizati
