The traditional way of designing energy pile system is mostly single domain/objective oriented, which lacks means to coherently consider different while relevant factors across domains. cost for life cycle design, construction and maintenance, return investment, CO2 emission related sustainable requirements, so on also need be considered, in a systematic manner, along with the main functional d...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a managerial powerful tool for assess the performance of decision making units (dmus). nowadays, multi-objective dea models are an attractive technique for evaluation quantity and quality aspects of performance analysis. but these models are in static. in this paper, we want to present a proposed fuzzy dynamic multi-objective dea model in which data are changi...

Sequential decision-making problems with multiple objectives arise naturally in practice and pose unique challenges for research in decision-theoretic planning and learning, which has largely focused on single-objective settings. This article surveys algorithms designed for sequential decision-making problems with multiple objectives. Though there is a growing body of literature on this subject...

Decision-making tasks sometimes involve soft objectives. They are soft in the sense that they contain uncertainty, imprecision or vagueness. For example, decisions on built environment aim to maximize comfort or other experiential qualities. Pareto-optimal solutions to such problems can be found using multi-objective evolutionary search together with other soft computing methods. Beyond optimal...

In this thesis the problem of conceptual engineering design and the possible use of adaptive search techniques and other machine based methods therein are explored. For the multi–objective optimisation (MOO) within conceptual design problem, genetic algorithms (GA) adapted to MOO are used and various techniques explored: weighted sums, lexicographic order, Pareto method with and without ranking...

Reservoir flood control decisions are often compromised by various parties with conflicting benefits. In this paper, a three-person multi-objective conflict decision model is presented for reservoir flood control. In order to obtain the group decision, the ideal bargaining solution is first sought by two stages satisfying programming and then the decision alternative is chosen using the fuzzy p...

Decision Support Systems under Multiple Objectives (MODSS) has been classified as a specific type of system within the broad family of DSS and has been one of the most active areas of research. However, despite its theoretical development large scale real-world applications of multi-objective decision making (MODM) methods had been seriously lacking due to the technical knowledge and expertise ...
