Using Intervals for Global Sensitivity Analyses in Multiattribute Value Trees

Rank inclusion in criteria hierarchies

“…In view of our theoretical and computational results, we believe that the RICH method is especially suitable for decision contexts where only rather few and easily elicited preference statements can be obtained before preliminary decision recommendations must be produced. Also, inspired by positive experiences from the deployment of internet-based decision aiding tools (e.g., Web-HIPRE; see Mustajoki and H€ am€ al€ ainen, 2000;Lindstedt et al, 2001), we have already proceeded with the development of a userfriendly decision support tool for the RICH method. This tool--entitled RICH Decisions--is available free of charge to academic users (see http://www.decisionarium.hut.fi; Liesi€ o, 2002).…”

“…The moving average (19) produces an index whose magnitude is higher than those given by (17) or (18) at intervals.…”

“…Determine the importance index Jj t for all  j∈Il t by aggregating the importances with (17) or (18).…”

“…This allows the ranking of the state information of the aircraft in an order of importance. The intervals can also be utilized in sensitivity analysis [17] in which the impacts of the different factors affecting the prioritization can be found out.…”

“…a ainen, 2003). The intervals can represent either the uncertainty (Lindstedt et al, 2000) or the range of preferences in a group of decision makers. This is a new way of embedding individual models into a group model ( al., 2003a).…”
