Abstract :
When dealing with many-criteria decision making and many-objectives optimization problems the concepts of Pareto optimality and Pareto dominance are inefficient for modelling and simulating human decision making. Different fuzzy-based definitions of optimality and dominated solution are introduced and tested on analytical test cases in order to show their validity and closeness to human decision making.
