“…To compute σ i , we have chosen the multi-criteria decision-making process known as the Borda method [11], giving a value to every qualitative decision based on its position, as in Table 2. We select this method because it: (1) supports proportional representation of the situation of each thread; (2) is neutral and monotonic [10]; (3) produces a complete, transitive ranking for a set of alternatives [17]; (4) preserves the decisiveness of labels (incompatible, moderately compatible and compatible) [25]; (5) uses straightforward calculation; and (6) employs feasible computation.…”

Concurrent bilateral negotiation for open e-markets: the Conan strategy

We develop a novel strategy that supports software agents to make decisions on how to negotiate for a resource in open and dynamic e-markets. Although existing negotiation strategies offer a number of sophisticated features, including modelling an opponent and negotiating with many opponents simultaneously, they abstract away from the dynamicity of the market and the model that the agent holds for itself in terms of ongoing negotiations, thus ignoring information that increases an agent's utility. Our proposed strategy COncurrent Negotiating AgeNts (Conan) considers a weighted combination of modelling the market environment and the progress of concurrent negotiations in which the agent partakes. We conduct extensive experiments to evaluate the strategy's performance in various settings where different opponents from the literature provide a competitive market. Our experiments provide statistically significant results showing how Conan outperforms the state-of-the-art in terms of the utility gained during negotiations.

“…In those cases, the use of linguistic labels (or finite scales as in Mayor and Torrens [32]) to grade preferences could be more appropriate to capture the lack of precision in human behavior (see Zadeh [47][48][49], Herrera et al [26,27], Herrera and Herrera-Viedma [25], García-Lapresta [17] and García-Lapresta et al [19], among others).…”

“…. , n} with r We note that in García-Lapresta, Martínez-Panero and Meneses [15] other properties, namely representativity and Condorcet-type properties, have been analyzed. The fulfillment of representativity (which states that Borda qualifications must agree with linguistic pairwise comparisons of alternatives for each agent) is granted under rationality requirements for the linguistic narrow Borda rule weaker than those for the broad one.…”

“…It has been widespread analyzed and extended to more general orders from its initial design (see Black [2] and Gärdenfors [17], among others). In the last years it has also been considered in a fuzzy framework (see Marchant [22,23] and García-Lapresta and Martínez-Panero [13,14]), and in a linguistic context (see García-Lapresta, Lazzari and Martínez-Panero [11] and García-Lapresta, Martínez-Panero and Meneses [15]). …”

Summary. In this paper we consider a decision making situation where agents pairwise compare all the alternatives and show their levels of preference through previously established linguistic labels. Then, from these non-numerical inputs, we introduce two extensions of the Borda rule, called broad and narrow approaches. The difference between them arise when individual assessments are aggregated through matrix operators: the first one takes into account all the labels which compare each alternative and all others, while the second one only consider those favorable. Once these linguistic Borda rules designed, the fulfillment of some properties within the Social Choice framework is verified.
