Consistency-driven approximation of a pairwise comparison matrix

Determination of weight vector by using a pairwise comparison matrix based on DEA and Shannon entropy

The relation between the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a topic of interest to researchers in this branch of applied mathematics. In this paper, we propose a linear programming model that generates a weight (priority) vector from a pairwise comparison matrix. In this method, which is referred to as the E-DEAHP method, we consider each row of the pairwise...

On inconsistency of a pairwise comparison matrix

Preserving Consistency and Properties in Pairwise Comparisons Based Non-Numerical Ranking

We discuss property-driven non-numerical ranking by rough set partial order approximations and present property-consistency driven algorithm for the non-numerical ranking based on the pairwise comparisons.

Combined Data Envelopment Analysis and Analytical Hierarchy Process Methods to obtain the Favorable Weights from Pairwise Comparison Matrix

Inverse Sensitive Analysis of Pairwise Comparison Matrices

In the analytic hierarchy process (AHP), the consistency of pairwise comparison is measured by the consistency index (CI) value of pairwise comparison matrices. The CI value is defined by the size and the principal eigenvalue of comparison matrix, and the larger the CI value is, the less consistent pairwise comparison is. In this paper, we propose the estimation method of consistency intervals,...
