Pairwise comparisons across species are problematic when analyzing functional genomic data
There is considerable interest in comparing functional genomic data across species. One goal of such work is to provide an integrated understanding of genome and phenotype evolution. Most comparative functional genomic studies have relied on multiple pairwise comparisons between species, an approach that does not incorporate information about the evolutionary relationships among species. The st...
متن کاملAre inconsistent decisions better? An experiment with pairwise comparisons
This paper tries to contribute to the well-known and lengthy discussion on whether we should allow decision makers to be inconsistent, or, to put it in another way, if intransitive decisions better represent their preferences. We will focus specifically on the multiple-criteria decision making problem, since it is one of the most usual stances where this intransitivity appears. Result from an e...
متن کاملA unifying functional approach for inconsistency indices of pairwise comparisons
A vast amount of indices has been proposed in the literature [1] to quantify the deviation of a pairwise comparison matrix A = (aij)n×n from the consistency property aik = aijajk ∀i, j, k. In this paper we propose a unifying approach by expressing an inconsistency index as a function of the matrix entries aij satisfying a set of suitable properties. More precisely, we first consider the ‘local’...
متن کاملPairwise Comparisons Simplified
This study examines the notion of generators of a pairwise comparisons matrix. Such approach decreases the number of pairwise comparisons from n · (n − 1) to n − 1. An algorithm of reconstructing of the PC matrix from its set of generators is presented.
متن کاملPoverty Orderings when Welfare Comparisons are Uncertain
In applied welfare economics, equivalence scales for household composition and size corrections, and appropriate price de‡ators are minimum requirements to perform interhousehold comparisons of welfare, measured via household income or consumption information. In practice, the information available is insu¢cient and only approximate price or household composition corrections are available. Pove...
