Abstract:

Cognitive information can be described by Z-number fully and effectively. However, many problems of Z-number need to be further studied. In this paper, two hidden probability models for calculating Z-number are established to provide more intuitive and abundant information. Next, the dominance degree relationship of Z-number is developed and subdivided. Furthermore, combined with the hidden probability of calculation, three different measurements of dominance degree are defined from three levels of geometry, algebra, and cross entropy based on the outranking relationship. The influencing factors are analyzed for different combinations of two probability models and three dominance degree measures. A multiattribute decision model is established on the basis of new grey association analysis and QUALIFLEX method. Finally, a decision example is given to verify the effectiveness and feasibility of the method. And sensitivity analysis is made to determine the impact of parameters and hidden probability on the decision model.
