Pairwise comparisons are a well-established tool to compare weights of criteria and
alternatives or, more in general, any entities. Their ultimate goal is to facilitate the search for …

The aim of this book is to provide the reader with a critical guide to AHP. In this book, the
AHP method is considered primarily as a mathematical technique supporting the decision …

This paper recalls the definition of consistency for pairwise comparison matrices and briefly
presents the concept of inconsistency index in connection to other aspects of the theory of …

The paper offers a new perspective on the construction of inconsistency indices for
reciprocal pairwise comparison matrices representing reciprocal relations on a set of n≥ 3 …

The paper presents the Triads Geometric Consistency Index (T-GCI), a measure for
evaluating the inconsistency of the pairwise comparison matrices employed in the Analytic …

Comparing alternatives in pairs is a very well known technique of ranking creation. The
answer to how reliable and trustworthy ranking depends on the inconsistency of the data …

One of the most popular methods of calculating priorities based on the pairwise
comparisons matrices (PCM) is the geometric mean method (GMM). It is equivalent to the …

When the in/consistency in Pairwise Comparisons (PCs) is taken into consideration as the
subarea of the Multi Attribute Decision Making (MADM) scientific field, it has many …

The role of an expert in the decision-making process is crucial. If we ask an expert to help us
to make a decision we assume their honesty. But what if the expert is dishonest? Then, the …

Pairwise comparison matrices often exhibit inconsistency, therefore many indices have been
suggested to measure their deviation from a consistent matrix. A set of axioms has been …
