A new consensus measure based on Pearson correlation coefficient

Obtaining consensual solutions is an important issue in decision making processes. It depends on several factors such as experts’ opinions, principles, knowledge, experience, etc. In the literature we can find a considerable amount of consensus measurement from different research areas (from a Social Choice perspective: Alcalde-Unzu and Vorsatz [1], Alcantud, de Andres Calle and Cascon [2] and Bosch [3], among others and from Decision Making Theory: Gonzalez-Arteaga, Alcantud and de Andres Calle [4] and Gonzalez-Pachon [5], Herrera, Herrera-Viedma and Chiclana [7], Herrera-Viedma et al. [6] and Wu et al. [8], among others ). Most of them have a common point, they are based on distances or similarity functions. In the present contribution we propose a new approach based on the use of the Pearson correlation coefficient to measure consensus. Moreover, we suppose a general framework considering experts’ opinions modelled by fuzzy preference relation. The new correlation consensus measurement takes into account concordance between preferences intensities for pairs of alternatives and it verifies important properties. In addition, we prove that our proposal is a different approach to traditional consensus measures based on distances or similarities. References [1] J. Alcalde-Unzu and M. Vorsatz.

On the black-hole kink

By allowing the light cones to tip over on hypersurfaces according to the conservation laws of an one-kink in static, Schwarzschild black hole metric, we show that in the quantum regime there also exist instantons whose finite imaginary action gives the probability of occurrence of the kink metric corresponding to single chargeless, nonrotating black hole taking place in pairs, the holes of each pair being joined on an interior surface, beyond the horizon.Comment: 20 pages, LaTex, to appear in Int.
