Group judgment with ties. A position-based approach

Author

Listed:
  • Hanna Bury
  • Dariusz Wagner

Abstract

A system for defining the positions taken by alternatives under preference orders proposed by Cook and Seiford is discussed. This makes it possible to apply some positional methods of group judgement to the case of ties in experts’ opinions, as well as in group judgements. Numerical examples are presented.
