Abstract
In no-preference methods, where the opinions of the decision maker are not taken into consideration, the multiobjective optimization problem is solved using some relatively simple method and the solution obtained is presented to the decision maker. The decision maker may either accept or reject the solution. It seems quite unlikely that the solution best satisfying the decision maker could be found with these methods. That is why no-preference methods are suitable for situations where the decision maker does not have any special expectations of the solution and (s)he is satisfied simply with some optimal solution. The working order here is: 1) analyst, 2) none.
