Abstract:Probability preference set is an effective tool that can comprehensively and carefully express people's complex preference information on objects. In recent years, it has been widely concerned and recognized by scholars at home and abroad. The report will introduce in details the practical application background, basic concepts and algorithms of decision-making theory based on probability preference set, various expressions in various environments, current research progress, and analysis of its research and application prospects.
