Theory and Approaches of Group Decision Making with Uncertain Linguistic Expressions

Part of the book series: Uncertainty and Operations Research ((UOR))

Abstract

This chapter focuses on GDM problems whose information takes the form of LTWHs defined in Sect. 2.4. We introduce a multi-granular linguistic decision-making (MGLDM) approach and discuss the consistency measures of LPRs based on LTWHs.
