Abstract

We consider a profit allocation of employee coalitions in tacit knowledge sharing. Owing to the existence of uncertain factors, the allocation of profits cannot be accurately expressed among players. Triangular fuzzy numbers, which are expressed as the payoffs of coalitions, are used to give an allocation solution. Meanwhile, the allocation also addressed the influence of coalitions’ importance. A quadratic programming model is built to obtain a suitable solution, which is a triangular fuzzy number distribution value of each player. Further, we add a constraint to the built model: effectiveness, and obtain the pre-allocated solution. Finally, the rationality and superiority of the proposed model are verified through a numerical example.
