Large-scale group decision making (LSGDM) is very common in real world, and especially
how to reach a relatively consensus status in a social network is a hot topic. In this paper, we …

Uncertainty is inevitable in the decision-making process of real applications. Quantum
mechanics has become an interesting and popular topic in predicting and explaining human …

Given a probability distribution, its corresponding information volume is Shannon entropy.
However, how to determine the information volume of a given mass function is still an open …

Dempster–Shafer evidence theory has been widely used in various fields of applications,
because of the flexibility and effectiveness in modeling uncertainties without prior …

Dempster-Shafer evidence (DSE) theory, which allows combining pieces of evidence from
different data sources to derive a degree of belief function that is a type of fuzzy measure, is …

Combining basic probability assignments (BPAs) with time series is common in real-life
cases. Therefore, a new evidence fusion approach based on belief entropy and a visibility …

In group decision-making (GDM), a consensus building process (CRP) is necessary to
improve the level of consensus within the group. This paper develops a new CRP model for …

As the extension of the fuzzy sets (FSs) theory, the intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFSs) play an
important role in handling the uncertainty under the uncertain environments. The …

Evidence theory is an effective methodology for modeling and processing uncertainty that
has been widely applied in various fields. In evidence theory, a number of distance …

Abstract The Dempster–Shafer (DS) theory of evidence can combine evidence with one
parameter. The evidential reasoning (ER) approach is an extension of DS theory that can …
