Abstract
This paper presents extensions to the triage method for addressing continuous decision problems. These provide decision makers more tools with which to address situations where alternatives present themselves over time. The original triage method provides a criteria with which to divide these alternatives into those that should be selected, those that should be rejected, and those that should be held pending until a later decision epoch. The proposed extensions offer different criteria for accomplishing this partition. A sample problem is introduced to compare the effectiveness of the various methods and avenues for further improvements are discussed.
期刊介绍:
IJMCDM is a scholarly journal that publishes high quality research contributing to the theory and practice of decision making in ill-structured problems involving multiple criteria, goals and objectives. The journal publishes papers concerning all aspects of multicriteria decision making (MCDM), including theoretical studies, empirical investigations, comparisons and real-world applications. Papers exploring the connections with other disciplines in operations research and management science are particularly welcome. Topics covered include: -Artificial intelligence, evolutionary computation, soft computing in MCDM -Conjoint/performance measurement -Decision making under uncertainty -Disaggregation analysis, preference learning/elicitation -Group decision making, multicriteria games -Multi-attribute utility/value theory -Multi-criteria decision support systems and knowledge-based systems -Multi-objective mathematical programming -Outranking relations theory -Preference modelling -Problem structuring with multiple criteria -Risk analysis/modelling, sensitivity/robustness analysis -Social choice models -Theoretical foundations of MCDM, rough set theory -Innovative applied research in relevant fields
