Recent Advances on Inconsistency Indices for Pairwise Comparisons - A Commentary
نویسنده
چکیده
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 debates.

On 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 کاملBoundary properties of the inconsistency of pairwise comparisons in group decisions
This paper proposes an analysis of the effects of consensus and preference aggregation on the consistency of pairwise comparisons. We define some boundary properties for the inconsistency of group preferences and investigate their relation with different inconsistency indices. Some results are presented on more general dependencies between properties of inconsistency indices and the satisfactio...
متن کاملNew results on inconsistency indices and their relationship with the quality of priority vector estimation
The article is devoted to the problem of inconsistency in the pairwise comparisons based prioritization methodology. The issue of "inconsistency" in this context has gained much attention in recent years. The literature provides us with a number of different "inconsistency" indices suggested for measuring the inconsistency of the pairwise comparison matrix (PCM). The latter is understood as a d...
متن کاملCharacterization of an inconsistency ranking for pairwise comparison matrices
Pairwise comparisons between alternatives are a well-known method for incorporating preferences of a decision-maker. Since these often do not exhibit consistency, a number of inconsistency indices has been introduced in order to measure the deviation from this ideal case. We axiomatically characterize the inconsistency ranking induced by the Koczkodaj inconsistency index by presenting six indep...
متن کاملStudying 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...
