- Abstract
In the highly competitive environment, capturing and disseminating of tacit knowledge are significant to an organization's success with the development of knowledge-based systems. However, in practical knowledge acquisition process, domain experts tend to express their judgments using multigranularity linguistic term sets, and there usually exists uncertain and incomplete information since expert knowledge is experience-based and tacit. In addition, although the technical capabilities of expert systems based on fuzzy Petri nets (FPNs) are expanding, they still fall short of meeting the increasingly complex knowledge demands. Therefore, this paper develops a theoretical model based on linguistic interval 2-tuples and interval-valued intuitionistic FPNs (IVIFPNs) for acquiring and representing tacit knowledge to increase and sustain the competitive advantages of knowledge intensive organizations. An empirical case study in medical practice is provided to demonstrate the application and feasibility of the proposed model, and the results show that it can well capture experts' tacit knowledge and reuse the acquired knowledge productively.
