Group geometric consistency index of analytic hierarchy process (AHP)
The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is a structured technique for dealing with complex decisionmaking and is already used to solve many group decision problems. This paper used the CauchySchwarz inequality to improve the AHP algorithm that was developed by Escobar et al. (2004). They provided an upper bound for the group geometric consistency index in order to prove that the group geometric co...
متن کاملConsistency in the Analytic Hierarchy Process: a New Approach
In this paper, we present a statistical criterion for accepting/rejecting the pairwise reciprocal comparison matrices in the analytic hierarchy process. We have studied the consistency in random matrices of different sizes. We do not agree with the traditional criterion of accepting matrices due to their inflexibility and because it is too restrictive when the size of the matrix increases. Our ...
متن کاملThe Hierarchy Consistency Index:
The attribute hierarchy method (AHM) (Leighton, Gierl, & Hunka, 2004), which is based on the assumption that test items can be described by a set of hierarchically ordered attributes, is designed to estimate examinees’ level of competency as well as their profiles for mastering a set of attributes. The AHM, by incorporating the assumption of attribute dependency, brings an important cognitive p...
متن کاملThe Analytic Hierarchy Process
The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), introduced by Thomas Saaty (1980), is an effective tool for dealing with complex decision making, and may aid the decision maker to set priorities and make the best decision. By reducing complex decisions to a series of pairwise comparisons, and then synthesizing the results, the AHP helps to capture both subjective and objective aspects of a decision. In a...
متن کاملStatistical Issues in Combining Expert Opinions for Analytic Hierarchy Process
The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is used as a modelling and solution tool for multicriteria decision making. The AHP breaks a problem down and then aggregates the solutions of all the subproblems into a conclusion. By breaking it down, the AHP utilizes the human ability to make sound judgements about small problems. (see Saaty 1991 and Saaty 1996.) The most creative part of decision making ...
