Linear programming models for estimating weights in the analytic hierarchy process
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present an approach based on linear programming (LP) that estimates the weights for a pairwise comparison matrix generated within the framework of the analytic hierarchy process. Our approach makes sense for a number of reasons, which we discuss. We apply our LP approach to several sample problems and compare our results to those produced by other, widely used methods. In addition, we extend our linear program to include applications where the pairwise comparison matrix is constructed from interval judgments. ? 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Fuzzy Linear Programming Method for Deriving Priorities in the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process
There are various methods for obtaining the preference vector of pair-wise comparison matrix factors. These methods can be employed when the elements of pair-wise comparison matrix are crisp while they are inefficient for fuzzy elements of pair-wise comparison matrix. In this paper, a method is proposed by which the preference vector of pair-wise comparison matrix elements can be obtained even ...

متن کاملImplementation of the centroid method of Solymosi and Dombi
Multiple objective decision support, either for selection among finite alternatives or for combining multiple functions in mathematical programming, often involves estimating a set of weights of relative importance. Recently Solymosi and Dombi proposed a means of estimating such weights based upon ordinal preference information. This method relies upon the centroid of bounded weights. Analytic ...

متن کاملA mixed integer nonlinear programming model for optimizing a gas pipeline transmission linear network
The technical equipment developed and used in both installation and operation processes in refineries, oil and gas pipelines, and gas booster stations has always been expensive. Hence, managers at different organizational levels are keen to find methods to control and reduce these costs. Generally speaking, the operators in a gas booster station choose the operating devices without considering ...
