On decision support for deliberating with constraints in constrained optimization models
2010
Proceedings of the 12th annual conference comp on Genetic and evolutionary computation - GECCO '10
The DDSS also provides users with graphical tools that support postsolution deliberation for constrained optimization models. ...
This paper introduces the Deliberation Decision Support System (DDSS). The DDSS obtains heuristically (using a genetic algorithm) solutions of interest for constrained optimization models. ...
INTRODUCTION Constraints in a COModel (constrained optimization model) serve to partition solutions for the model into two categories: feasible (satisfying the constraints) and infeasible (violating one ...

Decision Making Over Combinatorially-Structured Domains
2018
PROCEEDINGS OF THE THIRTIETH AAAI CONFERENCE ON ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND THE TWENTY-EIGHTH INNOVATIVE APPLICATIONS OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE CONFERENCE
We assume the user compactly expresses her preferences via soft constraints. We consider a sequential procedure that uses Decision Field Theory to model the decision making on each variable. ...
In the future, we plan to compare our results non-sequential approach and with behavioral data to asses our approach both in terms of modeling human decision making over complex domains, and adopting DFT ...
We use soft constraints to support a deliberation process performed through decision field theory and we consider a sequential approach, where deliberation is applied to each variable. ...

Sometimes it is not so bad to decide in a hurry: Influence of different levels of temporal opportunity on the elaboration of purchasing intention
2008
Polish Psychological Bulletin
Results show that in 5 second limit and unlimited time conditions, they rely more on an attitude-based decision strategy and chose the less optimal store. ...
Participants made their choices under time pressure (either 5, 9 or 15 seconds) or were given unlimited time to deliberate. ...
In line with Wilson et al. (1989) and Dijksterhuis (2004) , the present results also support the idea that deliberation can be maladaptive in making choice. ...

Deliberating Collective Decisions
2017
The Review of Economic Studies
Second, more diverse preferences, more patient members, or more unanimous decision voting rules lead to lengthier deliberation and more accurate decisions. ...
Three main insights emerge from our analysis and match an array of stylized facts on committee decision making. ...
Because (2) and (3) are necessary for constrained maximization, this unique cutoff pair must be optimal in the constraint set. 10
Equilibrium Analysis Given decision rule k, define the lower pivotal ...

Allocating treatment resources for hepatitis C in the UK: a constrained optimization modelling approach
2021
Journal of Market Access & Health Policy
Methods: A constrained optimization modelling of resource allocation for the treatment of CHC was developed in Excel from the perspective of the UK National Health System over a lifetime horizon. ...
Conclusion: The current allocation of treatment budget for CHC is not optimal in the UK. ...
Constrained optimization modeling is a flexible tool to solve different decision problems based on a simple yet accurate framework. ...

The eightfold way of deliberation dialogue
2006
International Journal of Intelligent Systems
We further fully articulate the locutions and rules of a formal dialogue game for this model, so as to specify a protocol for deliberation dialogues. ...
To assess our protocol we consider it against various records of human deliberations, against normative principles for the conduct of human dialogues, and with respect to the outcomes produced by dialogues ...
If only two participants remain in a dialogue and one of these utters this locution, the dialogue terminates. Commitment Store Update: No effects. ...

Theoretical Models of Deliberative Democracy: A Critical Analysis
2015
Argumentum: Journal of the Seminar of Discursive Logic, Argumentation Theory and Rhetoric
After presenting these models I will provide a critical analysis of each one of them with the purpose of revealing their virtues and limits. ...
In the concluding section, I will argue that any theoretical model is confronted with the "the paradox of democratic deliberatio [...] ...
And the solution they support has to do with the provisional nature of the results of deliberation. ...

Informing Balanced Investment in Services and Health Systems: A Case Study of Priority Setting for Tuberculosis Interventions in South Africa
2020
Value in Health
We then present an empirical approach for incorporating nonfinancial constraints in cost-effectiveness models of health benefit packages for the health sector. ...
We find substantial differences in incremental cost-effectiveness ratios across scenarios, leading to variations in the decision rules for prioritizing interventions. ...
