Emotional Business Intelligence : Enabling experience-centric business with the FeelingsExplorer
2014
The domain of Emotional Business Intelligence (EBI) aims to support business-relevant emotional and emotionaware decisions in addition to rational decision making. EBI originates from three root domains: Emotional Business, Emotional Intelligence and Business Intelligence (BI). In this paper we emphasize emotional empowerment of the traditional BI function; outline its main characteristics as a business working model of an emotionally smart, continuously learning organization; and introduce a first candidate of the EBI Toolkit, the FeelingsExplorer (FE). FE is a mash-up browser based on 4i (“ForEye”) technology, capable of visualizing objects in an emotional semantic space and thereby suppo…
Comparing reference point based interactive multiobjective optimization methods without a human decision maker
2022
AbstractInteractive multiobjective optimization methods have proven promising in solving optimization problems with conflicting objectives since they iteratively incorporate preference information of a decision maker in the search for the most preferred solution. To find the appropriate interactive method for various needs involves analysis of the strengths and weaknesses. However, extensive analysis with human decision makers may be too costly and for that reason, we propose an artificial decision maker to compare a class of popular interactive multiobjective optimization methods, i.e., reference point based methods. Without involving any human decision makers, the artificial decision make…
Towards explainable interactive multiobjective optimization : R-XIMO
2022
AbstractIn interactive multiobjective optimization methods, the preferences of a decision maker are incorporated in a solution process to find solutions of interest for problems with multiple conflicting objectives. Since multiple solutions exist for these problems with various trade-offs, preferences are crucial to identify the best solution(s). However, it is not necessarily clear to the decision maker how the preferences lead to particular solutions and, by introducing explanations to interactive multiobjective optimization methods, we promote a novel paradigm of explainable interactive multiobjective optimization. As a proof of concept, we introduce a new method, R-XIMO, which provides …
Automatic knowledge discovery from sparse and large-scale educational data : case Finland
2017
The Finnish educational system has received a lot of attention during the 21st century. Especially, the outstanding results in the first three cycles of the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) have made Finland’s education system internationally famous, and its unique characteristics have been under active research by various, predominantly educational, scholars since then. However, despite the availability of real but often sparse big data sets that would allow more evidence-based decision making, existing research to date has mostly concentrated on using classical qualitative and (univariate) quantitative methods. This thesis discusses, in general terms, knowledge discove…
Interactive data-driven multiobjective optimization of metallurgical properties of microalloyed steels using the DESDEO framework
2023
Solving real-life data-driven multiobjective optimization problems involves many complicated challenges. These challenges include preprocessing the data, modelling the objective functions, getting a meaningful formulation of the problem, and supporting decision makers to find preferred solutions in the existence of conflicting objective functions. In this paper, we tackle the problem of optimizing the composition of microalloyed steels to get good mechanical properties such as yield strength, percentage elongation, and Charpy energy. We formulate a problem with six objective functions based on data available and support two decision makers in finding a solution that satisfies them both. To …
Desirable properties of performance indicators for assessing interactive evolutionary multiobjective optimization methods
2022
Interactive methods support decision makers in finding the most preferred solution in multiobjective optimization problems. They iteratively incorporate the decision maker's preference information to find the best balance among conflicting objectives. Several interactive methods have been developed in the literature. However, choosing the most suitable interactive method for a given problem can prove challenging and appropriate indicators are needed to compare interactive methods. Some indicators exist for a priori methods, where preferences are provided at the beginning of the solution process. We present some numerical experiments that illustrate why these indicators are not suitable for …
Personalization of Multicriteria Decision Support Systems
2018
The Dagstuhl Seminar 18031 Personalization in Multiobjective Optimization: An Analytics Perspective carried on a series of five previous Dagstuhl Seminars (04461, 06501, 09041, 12041 and 15031) that were focused on Multiobjective Optimization. The continuing goal of this series is to strengthen the links between the Evolutionary Multiobjective Optimization (EMO) and the Multiple Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) communities, two of the largest communities concerned with multiobjective optimization today. Personalization in Multiobjective Optimization, the topic of this seminar, was motivated by the scientific challenges generated by personalization, mass customization, and mass data, and thus…

Multicriteria Decision Aiding for Planning Renewable Power Production at Moroccan Airports
2022
This study is about multicriteria decision aiding (MCDA) for the green airports program of the Moroccan Airport Authority ONDA. The goal of the program is to develop significant amounts of renewable power at airports. In particular, ONDA wants to select airports at which large solar and wind power parks should be built. Multiple criteria, including economy, technical feasibility, and environmental concerns, must be considered simultaneously. In this study, we apply Stochastic Multicriteria Acceptability Analysis (SMAA) for ranking the candidates to be developed into green airports. The analysis is conducted in phases with different sets of criteria. This study is the first application of MC…
Interactive multiobjective optimization for finding the most preferred exercise therapy modality in knee osteoarthritis
2022
Abstract Background There are no explicit guidelines or tools available to support clinicians in selecting exercise therapy modalities according to the characteristics of individual patients despite the apparent need. Objective This study develops a methodology based on a novel multiobjective optimization model and examines its feasibility as a decision support tool to support healthcare professionals in comparing different modalities and identifying the most preferred one based on a patient’s needs. Methods Thirty-one exercise therapy modalities were considered from 21 randomized controlled trials. A novel interactive multiobjective optimization model was designed to characterize the effic…
