چکیده

In this paper, multiple criteria optimization has been investigated. A new decision support system (DSS) has been developed for interactive solving of multiple criteria optimization problems (MOPs). The weighted-sum (WS) approach is implemented to solve the MOPs. The MOPs are solved by selecting different weight coefficient values for the criteria and solving single-criterion optimization problems (SOPs). However, the WS approach does not guarantee either finding evenly distributed solutions of a Pareto front, or finding Pareto optimal solutions in non-convex regions. In order to solve the problems, some methods have been proposed. In this paper, an adaptive weightedsum (AWS) approach has been used. We suggest presenting the solutions, obtained not only by the weighted-sum method, but also by the adaptive weighted-sum approach, to a decision maker (DM). Thus the decision making will be facilitated.

A Decision Support System for Urban Journey Planning in Multimodal Public Transit Network

The goal of this paper is to develop a Decision Support System (DSS) as a journey planner in complex and large multimodal urban network called Rahyar. Rahyar attempts to identify the most desirable itinerary among all feasible alternatives. The desirability of an itinerary is measured by a disutility function, which is defined as a weighted sum of some criteria. The weight...

Multiple Criteria Decision Support by Evolutionary Computation

This paper describes the use of Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) as a decision support tool in environmentally relevant decision problems. Though various methods from Artificial Intelligence as well as from Computational Intelligence have been successfully integrated into Environmental Decision Support Systems (EDSS), the use of Evolutionary Computation has so far remained marginal in this context...

A decision support methodology for stochastic multi-criteria linear programming using spreadsheets

In recent years, tools for solving optimization problems have become widely available through the integration of optimization software (or solvers) with all major spreadsheet packages. These solvers are highly effective on traditional linear programming (LP) problems with known, deterministic parameters. However, thoughtful analysts may rightly question the quality and robustness of optimal sol...

Determination of Minimum Data Set for Designing a Diagnosis Decision Support System and Medication Follow-Up for Multiple Sclerosis

Background and Purpose: Diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS) is complicated because of the lack of definite factor. Decision support systems are expert systems which help physicians in decision-making process. First step in designing the system is identification of a minimum dataset (MDS). This study aimed to determine minimum dataset required to design diagnosis decision support system. Mater...
