Abstract
For the uncertainty and complexity ingroup decision making and the differences of decision makers’ reliabilities, a group decision making method based on grey relational analysis and evidence theory is proposed. Combining grey relational analysis with evidence theory, a novel decision-making method extracting the degree of ignorance for individual decision makers’ information and constructing the Mass function is presented based on the comprehensive grey relational analysis (CGRA) method. We should also address how AI systems make their black box decisions, which calls for research into Explainable AI (XAI) by pursuing reverse engineering and self-explainability in AI. Considering the differences of decision makers’ reliabilities, the Mass function is modified by the evidence weight, and the group decision information is fused by the Dempster’s combination rule. On this basis, the Mass function is further transformed into the probability by the Pignistic probability transformation, which issued for ranking analysis of group decision making. Finally, the proposed method is applied to the green supplier selection, and the comparative analysis is further performed to verify the rationality and effectiveness of the proposed method.
