Studying a set of properties of inconsistency indices for pairwise comparisons
Pairwise comparisons between alternatives are a well-established tool to decompose decision problems into smaller and more easily tractable sub-problems. However, due to our limited rationality, the subjective preferences expressed by decision makers over pairs of alternatives can hardly ever be consistent. Therefore, several inconsistency indices have been proposed in the literature to quantif...
متن کاملAxiomatic properties of inconsistency indices for pairwise comparisons
Pairwise comparisons are a well-known method for the representation of the subjective preferences of a decision maker. Evaluating their inconsistency has been a widely studied and discussed topic and several indices have been proposed in the literature to perform this task. Since an acceptable level of consistency is closely related with the reliability of preferences, a suitable choice of an i...
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 کاملOn Inconsistency Indices and Inconsistency Axioms in Pairwise Comparisons
Pairwise comparisons are an important tool of modern (multiple criteria) decision making. Since human judgments are often inconsistent, many studies focused on the ways how to express and measure this inconsistency, and several inconsistency indices were proposed as an alternative to Saaty’s inconsistency index and inconsistency ratio for reciprocal pairwise comparisons matrices. This paper aim...
متن کاملRecent Advances on Inconsistency Indices for Pairwise Comparisons - A Commentary
This paper recalls the definition of consistency for pairwise comparison matrices and briefly presents the concept of inconsistency index in connection to other aspects of the theory of pairwise comparisons. By commenting on a recent contribution by Koczkodaj and Szwarc, it will be shown that the discussion on inconsistency indices is far from being over, and the ground is still fertile for deb...
