Abstract
This paper considers group decision making problems (GDM) in bipolar context where actors provide their preferences over alternatives through positive and negative attributes. A soft consensus model based on distance between evaluations is proposed to narrow the differences between decision makers and to ensure convergence of individual preferences towards group preferences. A feedback mechanism defined by the identification and consensus phases is introduced to reach a consensus. For a group with interactive relationships, the potential reciprocal influence of decision makers is considered using concordance and discordance measures.
