Abstract
- Decision support is a vital function in electronic commerce (e-commerce). The purpose of this paper is to construct a review-based decision support model for items comparison in e-commerce. The proposed model uses probability multivalued neutrosophic linguistic numbers (PMVNLNs) to characterize online reviews. It overcomes the limitation of existing models by considering neutral information and hesitancy in text reviews. The fuzzy characterization of reviews (i.e., PMVNLN) can reflect similarities and differences in positive (negative) information. In addition, the model considers consumers’ bounded rational behaviors by combining the regret theory with an outranking method. We empirically compare the proposed model with models in http://PConline.com and four existing models with data from http://PConline.com. The performance of these models in terms of accuracy is measured by the total relative difference metric. Results indicate the good performance of the proposed model. Our model is a promising option for e-commerce to provide consumers with good decision support service. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
