In the literature on MCDM, many methods have been proposed in order to sort alternatives evaluated on several attributes into ordered categories. Most of them were proposed on an ad hoc basis. Using tools from conjoint measurement, this paper takes a more theoretical approach to these sorting methods. We provide an axiomatic analysis of the partitions of alternatives into two categories that ca...

pedological criterion affecting desertification in alluvial fans was investigated, for which the map of units was prepared by crossing maps of land use, geology, slope classes and grid layer created by the extension of et geo-wizards in arcgis 10.3. three indices of salinity, erodibility, and permeability of soil were considered and classified. weights of criteria and consistency ratio were cal...

Due to increased demands of production capacity and higher quality requirements, industries are automating at a fast pace. Industrial robots an important component the industrial automation ecosystem. However, selection appropriate is challenging task due sheer number alternatives present their varied specifications. The various characteristics or attributes that need consideration before optim...

This paper is devoted to the study of methods allowing to sort multi-attributed alternatives between several ordered categories. Within a general framework that encompasses most sorting models proposed in the literature, we provide an axiomatic analysis of what we call noncompensatory sorting models, with or without veto effects. These models contain the pessimistic version of ELECTRE TRI as a ...

This work proposes a Progressive Assisted Sorting Algorithm (PASA) based on a multicriteria evaluation ELECTRE-type method. The purpose of the PASA is to aid a decision maker to progressively sort a set of alternatives into a set of categories, which we considered are ordered (ordinal sorting), following a consistency principle. We consider the principle that if an alternative outranks (is as g...
