A Reliability-Based Consensus Model for Multiattribute Group Decision-Making with Analytically Evidential Reasoning Approach

Algorithm 2

The algorithm to the interaction consensus model for experts.

Input: Expert assessments , ,

, ; Attribute set ; Reliability set of experts on attribute

, ; The correction times ; The maximum time of interaction .

Output: Group opinions on attributes that meet the model requirements, .
