The representation of conditional relative importance between criteria

Special Issue on Managerial Decisions with Multiple Criteria, Guest Editors: Constantin Zopounidis and Michael DoumposInternational audienceWe study in this paper the notion of conditional relative importance in a quantitative framework. Bi-capacities are shown to be suitable to represent such notion. We restrict ourself to the case when the relative importance of two criteria are conditional on a third being attractive or repulsive. We give two algorithms that enable to construct the neutral level from the preference relation

A decade of application of the Choquet and Sugeno integrals in multi-criteria decision aid

The main advances regarding the use of the Choquet and Sugeno integrals in multi-criteria decision aid over the last decade are reviewed. They concern mainly a bipolar extension of both the Choquet integral and the Sugeno integral, interesting particular submodels, new learning techniques, a better interpretation of the models and a better use of the Choquet integral in multi-criteria decision aid. Parallel to these theoretical works, the Choquet integral has been applied to many new fields, and several softwares and libraries dedicated to this model have been developed.Choquet integral, Sugeno integral, capacity, bipolarity, preferences
