Abstract
The application of Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) can improve the treatment efficiency of medical institutions, but it still has hidden dangers in security and privacy. The introduction of blockchain technology into IoMT is expected to prevent these hidden dangers. This study proposes a multiple criteria decision aiding model to select a suitable blockchain service platform for IoMT to enhance its safety and reliability. The proposed model combines the probabilistic linguistic term set (PLTS), multiple criteria hierarchy process (MCHP), 2-additive Choquet integral and ExpTODIM method to assist decision-makers (DMs) to obtain a reliable and low-risk decision result. The MCHP is employed to analyze decision-making problems by hierarchical criteria. The 2-additive Choquet integral is adopted to reflect interactions between criteria, and parameter values in the 2-additive Choquet integral are indirectly determined based on the preference information of DMs. PLTSs are used to represent the evaluation information of experts and the preference information of DMs. The ExpTODIM (Exponential TODIM) method is adopted to rank alternatives considering the psychological characteristics of DMs. An illustrative example demonstrates the applicability and merits of the proposed model with comparative analysis.
