Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Group Decision Making (GDM) is one of the most significant research areas in the social sciences, health care and medicine, and financial and businesses industries, among other areas. With the strength of fuzzy sets in handling human preferences, fuzzy-based GDM methodologies provide solutions to the ambiguity and imprecision of information. In recent years, there has been a considerable advancement in fuzzy-based GDM models, with many proposed methods used to address the consensus-reaching process, feedback mechanisms and information fusion of a variety of fuzzy GDM frameworks. The incorporation of new concepts and theories, such as Social Network Analysis (SNA) and Social Influence Network (SIN), are promising in further developing the research area of Group Decision Making. This Special Issue aims to provide a platform for scholars to disseminate their current research related to fuzzy Group Decision Making. Also welcomed are dynamic and advanced computational methodologies, including large-scale GDM, intelligent systems, decision-support systems and software, and data-driven and soft computing.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
