tract: ELECTRE II and III methods enjoy a wide acceptance in solving multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) lems. Research results in this paper reveal that there are some compelling reasons to doubt the correctness of roposed rankings when the ELECTRE II and III methods are used. In a typical test we first used these ods to determine the best alternative for a given MCDM problem. Next we random...

Purpose: This paper presents an algorithm that can elicitate (infer) all or any combination of ELECTRE Tri-B parameters. For example, a decision-maker maintain the values for indifference, preference, and veto thresholds, our find criteria weights, reference profiles, lambda cutting level. Our approach is inspired by Machine Learning ensemble technique, Random Forest, that, we named as Tree alg...

In this paper, we present (to the best of our knowledge) first outranking method to assign a score each alternative. This is part Electre family, and will call it Electre-Score. contrast Multi-Attribute Value Theory methods, Electre-Score does not construct value function for criterion proceed then aggregation into single value. Instead, makes use relations make comparison with sets reference a...

Trustworthy software evaluation is taken as the multi-criteria decision aiding process in this paper. The use of ELECTRE TRI method for evaluating software trustworthiness is presented. Software under evaluation is compared with some predefined norms and is assigned to one of trust levels. The entire evaluating process is described, including definition of problem situation and formulation, det...

project selection is considered as an important problem in project management. it is multi-criteria in nature and is based on various quantitative and qualitative factors. the main purpose of this paper is to present a new rank-based method for project selection in outranking relation. according to this approach, decision alternatives were clustered in the concordance matrix and the discordance...

In this paper, a new multi-criteria decision-making procedure is presented, which captures preferential information in the form of the threshold model. It is based on the ELECTRE-like sorting analysis restricted by the localization principle, which enables high adaptability of the decision model and reduces the cognitive load imposed on the decision-makers. It lays the foundation for the introd...

The Electre language has been developed as a resuit of the expérience of the automatic control department in the implementation of the real time control applications. These applications consist of many tasks that are conditionally executed and interrupted according to some events 'occurences. We propose a language semantic and in particular that of its fundamental operators: parallelism of task...

ELECTRE TRI is a method designed to sort alternatives evaluated on several criteria into ordered categories. The original method uses limiting profiles. A recently introduced variant uses central profiles. We study the relations between these two variants. We do so by investigating if an ordered partition obtained with one variant can also be obtained by the other variant, after a suitable rede...

The ability of enterprise information systems, such as enterprise resource planning (ERP), manufacturing executive systems (MES) and customer relation management (CRM), to improve production and business performance are demanding more attention from enterprises, since increase in competitive advantages is a goal to be reached. Integration of all the information flowing through a company is a ke...
