AHP.Unif {CPP}

Probabilistic AHP using Uniform distributions

Description

This function computes criteria weights, using AHP and randomic pair-wise evaluations by Uniform distributions.

Usage

AHP.Unif(n, list)

Arguments

n

Random numbers created from Uniform distributions, using the parameters 'min' and 'max' of each pair-wise criteria comparison elicited from the experts.

list

Pair-wise comparison matrices of expert opinions. The function 'list' is embedded in R.

Value

Weights returned from a simulation of AHP with Uniform distributions. The weights are driven from the simulated matrix that gives the minimum AHP Consistent Index.
