Knowledge structure-based consensus-reaching method for large-scale multiattribute group decision-making

作者：

Highlights：

• Knowledge structures of experts are considered in dealing with the LMGDM problem.

• Dempster–Shafer theory is employed to express and fuse information in the LMGDM.

• Several clusters are allowed to help reach consensus and experts can change their clusters.

• Multi-objective programming is established to make a coordinated decision for all clusters.
