Decision making with multiple goals: extending the threshold approach.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Given a set of conditions that may be present in a patient, this paper presents a methods for choosing the optimal combination of treatment actions, taking into account interactions among the available therapeutic and diagnostic procedures. The multiple-threshold approach is an extension of the threshold approach for individual conditions, and it offers a precise way of computing the optimal actions. In addition, tests for an example case show a 11-29% increase in the expected utility of treatments using this method.

Target setting in the process of merging and restructuring of decision-making units using multiple objective linear programming
This paper presents a novel approach to achieving the goals of data envelopment analysis in the process of reconstruction and integration of decision-making units by using multiple objective linear programming. In this regard, first, we review inverse data envelopment analysis models for data reconstruction and integration. We present a model with multi-objective linear programming structure in...
متن کاملMultiple attribute decision making with triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers based on zero-sum game approach
For many decision problems with uncertainty, triangular intuitionistic fuzzy number is a useful tool in expressing ill-known quantities. This paper develops a novel decision method based on zero-sum game for multiple attribute decision making problems where the attribute values take the form of triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers and the attribute weights are unknown. First, a new value ind...
