Computing a consistent approximation to a generalized pairwise comparisons matrix

An Algorithm for the Optimal Consistent Approximation to a Pairwise Comparisons Matrix by Orthogonal Projections

The algorithm for finding the optimal consistent approximation of an inconsistent pairwise comaprisons matrix is based on a logarithmic transformation of a pairwise comparisons matrix into a vector space with the Euclidean metric. Orthogonal basis is introduced in the vector space. The orthogonal projection of the transformed matrix onto the space formed by the images of consistent matrices is ...

On the Optimal Consistent Approximation to Pairwise Comparison Matrices

Consistency retrieval from a biased relative preference table is an imperative task in decision theory This paper considers the least squares approximation of a pairwise comparison matrix by consistent matrices It is observed that the highly nonlinear manifold of consistent matrices can be changed into a linear subspace by the component wise logarithmic transformation A rst order optimality con...
