Abstract
Multiple Criteria Decision Making requires that different relevance assigned to criteria be considered. Most approaches introduced in literature are dependent upon an aggregation model. We propose a rule based approach that is independent of the aggregation model and highlights the uncertainty deriving from the decision maker confidence on the adopted criteria.
