Abstract. AHP is a multi-criteria decision method widely used by non-experts. We have been implementing an Intelligent Tutoring System teaching the underlying theory, in particular the construction of consistent or near consistent AHP matrices, and the calculation of priorities and consistency indexes. AHP Tutor’s architecture supports adaptable exercises and dynamic explanations of solution pa...

Effort Estimation has always been a challenging task for the Project managers. Many researchers have tried to help them by creating different types of models. This has been already proved that none is successful for all types of projects and every type of environment. Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) has been identified as the tool that would help in Multi Criteria Decision Making. Researchers ...

Hydrogen peroxide is generated during aerobic metabolism and is capable of damaging critical biomolecules. However, mutants of Escherichia coli that are devoid of catalase typically exhibit no adverse phenotypes during growth in aerobic media. We discovered that catalase mutants retain the ability to rapidly scavenge H(2)O(2) whether it is formed internally or provided exogenously. Analysis of ...

The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is a mathematical technique for multi-criteria decision-making. Complex problems or issues involving value or subjective judgments are suitable applications of the AHP approach. ‘Factors considered for the selection of Undergraduate Engineering Institution by the students’, is the research topic of interest. It involves a number of qualitative judgments base...

Caixia Li , Sreenatha Gopalarao Anavatti, Tapabrata Ray University of New South Wales @ Australian Defence Force Academy [email protected] Abstract-This paper focuses on the design and implementation of the analytical hierarchy process (AHP) using Fuzzy inference techniques. This AHP-FUZZY approach is a multi-criteria combination system. The nature of the AHP-FUZZY approach is pair-...

The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) was developed to aid decision makers to rank or sort information based on a number of criteria. A recent advance is the DS/AHP method which incorporates the Dempster–Shafer theory of evidence with AHP. This method allows judgements on groups of decision alternatives (DA) to be made, it also offers a measure of uncertainty in the final results. In this paper ...

Much research in health care is devoted to health economical modelling. Even though the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is increasingly being applied in health care, its value to health economical modelling is still unrecognized. We explored the value of using AHP-derived results in a health economic model. We applied the AHP to provide input for a health economic evaluation of a new technolog...
