A Hybrid Fuzzy Cognitive Map and Genetic Algorithm Approach with Least-Influence Weighting for Decision-Support Forecasting

We propose a hybrid intelligent methodology for forecasting outcomes in complex human-centered systems characterized by uncertainty and reliance on expert knowledge. The framework integrates fuzzy cognitive maps (FCMs), a novel Least-Influence Method for estimating causal arc weights, and genetic algorithms for model t...
