Abstract

We address the following decision problem. We have to choose the “best” out of the alternatives A1,A2,...,Ar each of which is characterized numerically according to m criteria i.e. we have r m-vectors a 1,a 2,...,a r associated with the alternatives. We assume that larger values represent better ones for all criteria and only Pareto-optimal alternatives are considered.
