What the paper says

Large group decision-making (LGDM) involves multiple decision-makers (DMs) and criteria, frequently resulting in conflicts and inconsistencies. This study proposes a novel conflict resolution model based on dynamic trust relationships to effectively identify and address potential disputes in LGDM. First, hesitant fuzzy 2-tuple linguistic sets (HF2TLSs) are utilized to accurately capture DMs’ preferences in uncertain environments. Then, a Markov trust state transition model is developed to capture the dynamic evolution of trust relationships. Next, an enhanced PageRank algorithm, built on trust networks, is employed to determine the weights of DMs and subgroups, thereby improving decision quality. Additionally, multidimensional conflict detection indicators are introduced to quantify cognitive and interest conflicts among subgroups. Finally, an adaptive conflict resolution mechanism is presented to balance heterogeneous interests and achieve agreement. An illustrative example validates the model, with comparative analyses demonstrating its rationality and superiority.
