Group Decision-Making Method for Dynamic Cloud Model Based on Cumulative Prospect Theory

Group decision-making is a situation faced when individuals collectively make a choice from the alternatives before them. Aiming to the drawback that not all plans can be evaluated by a single expert during group decision-making process, a group decision-making method for dynamic cloud distribution is proposed in this paper based on cumulative prospect theory. First, experts and plans were divided into groups according to the classification rule, and plans were described with the cloud model. The expectation, the entropy and the super entropy decision matrix were structured respectively. Then, the maximum and minimum values in decision matrix were set as positive and negative reference points. The parameter values of cumulative cloud prospect were calculated and the synthesis prospect values of every group were obtained. Finally, the plans were sorted based on the mean of synthesis prospect values for every group, and illustrated by specific examples. The ranking results show that the proposed method is rationality and practicability. So the proposed method can be widely used in group decision-making of grouping scheme or grouping expert.
