Abstract

The paper describes a new multi-method technology PAKS-M (Progressive Aggregation of the Classified Situations by many Methods) for multi-attribute expert evaluation of complex systems and processes. This technology provides reducing the dimension of the attribute space, constructing several hierarchical systems of composite criteria and an integral quality index, which aggregate initial attributes as well as the classification and/or ordering of multi-attribute objects using several decision making methods. The technology is based on knowledge of experts and/or preferences of decision maker. It significantly reduces the time and complexity of solution of multiple criteria tasks, and allows analyzing and explaining the results.
