Reducing the pareto set algorithm based on an arbitrary finite set of information “quanta”

Abstract

In this paper, in the framework of the axiomatic approach developed by the author over the past 3 decades, we assume four axioms of “reasonable” choice, which define a rather wide class of problems of multi-criteria selection. To reduce the Pareto set we use numerical information about the preference relation of a decision maker. We propose a method for narrowing the Pareto set using an arbitrary consistent finite set of such information. The method is based on an algorithm that generates a new set of criteria (with a minimum elements number) with respect to which a new Pareto set gives o more precise upper estimate than the initial Pareto set.
