A Linguistic Metric for Consensus Reaching Processes Based on ELICIT Comprehensive Minimum Cost Consensus Models

Linguistic group decision making (LiGDM) aims at solving decision situations involving human decision makers (DMs) whose opinions are modeled by using linguistic information. To achieve agreed solutions that increase DMs' satisfaction toward the collective solution, linguistic consensus reachin...
