A Method of Making Subjective Measurements Compatible with Hierarchical Matrices of Preference Ratios

  • Published:
Measurement Techniques Aims and scope

Abstract

A new method of making subjective measurements compatible is considered which is based on decomposing an initial inverse symmetric matrix of preference ratios of compared objects into matrices of lower dimensionality. The method is classified as a procedure for the conceptual analysis of data and makes it possible to improve the quality of adopted solutions to the problem of choosing from a set of alternatives in systems for supporting decision making.
