Solving group multi-objective optimization problems by optimizing consensus through multi-criteria ordinal classification

In this paper good consensus is associated with a high level of group satisfaction and a low level of dissatisfaction. A new method to improve consensus through a reformulation of the original group multi-objective optimization problem is introduced. For each point in the feasible decision set, the level of satisfaction or dissatisfaction from each group member is determined by multi-criteria ordinal classification approaches. Intense...
