Leveraging artificial intelligence in management information systems for sustainable supply chain optimization and environmental impact analysis
摘要
In this study, an integrated, AI-driven framework is recommended for enhancing Management Information Systems (MIS) capabilities to fulfill the demands of studying sustainable supply chain optimization and environmental impact analysis. To address the three core tasks, research utilizes both classical machine learning regression models (Linear Regression, Random Forest, Gradient Boosting, XGBoost, SVR) as well as a deep learning-based Gated TabTransformer (GTT) to predict GHG emissions, a Variational Graph Autoencoder (VGAE) for unsupervised anomaly detection, and a hybrid interpretability model constructed with Explainable Boosting Machines (EBM) and SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) for explainable AI. The results show that the Linear Regression and ensemble models (e.g., Gradient Boosting with R2 = 0.9995 and MAE = 0.0036) clearly outperform the existing methods both in terms of accuracy and robustness. In addition, the GTT shows strong generalization (R2 = 0.9883), and the VGAE is able to detect anomalies in emission patterns by learning both topological and feature-level deviations. In addition, via EBM–SHAP, the framework enables interpretable local and global insights for data-driven decision making, with transparency. In addition, the proposed framework is a comprehensive solution that bridges sustainability, AI, and MIS; it improves the state-of-the-art of sustainability analytics on the supply chain.
