A minimum cost-maximum consensus jointly driven feedback mechanism under harmonious structure in social network group decision making

This article investigates a minimum cost-maximum consensus jointly driven feedback mechanism under a harmonious power structure by twofold group and individual attention recommendations for building social network consensus. Harmonious power structure is first constructed with subgroup-centrality-IOWA operator by (i) extracting subgroup importance rankings through social network analysis, and (ii) minimising group structure conflict to search the harmony weight allocation. Subsequently, a twofold attention recommendation approach that balances group attention and individual attention is proposed to generate feedback recommendations for the feedback recipients. Based on this, optimisation models that minimise individual adjustment cost and maximise group consensus are constructed, jointly driving the feedback mechanism. Finally, a demonstration example is provided to illustrate the efficacy of the proposed model.
