A web tool to support decision making in the housing market using hesitant fuzzy linguistic term sets
Graphical abstractDisplay Omitted In this paper we present a linguistic multiple-expert multi-criteria decision making model and a web tool to support it, that is centred on the housing market. The web tool is integrated with the usual catalogue of ...
Consensus reaching models of linguistic preference relations based on distance functions
In group decision making (GDM) using linguistic preference relations to obtain the maximum degree of agreement, it is desirable to develop a consensus process prior to the selection process. This paper proposes two consensus models with linguistic ...
Adaptive consensus support model for group decision making systems
In this paper, we present an adaptive consensus support model for group decision making systems based on intervals of linguistic 2-tuples. The proposed method has the following advantages: (1) the evaluating values can either be represented by ...
