The Role of the DS/AHP in Identifying Inter-Group Alliances and Majority Rule Within Group Decision Making

Abstract: DS/AHP is a nascent method of multi-criteria decision-making, based on the Dempster-Shafer theory of evidence and indirectly the Analytic Hierarchy Process. It is concerned with the identification of the levels of preference that decision makers have towards certain decision alternatives (DAs), through preference judgements made over a number of different criteria. The working result from a DS/AHP analysis is the body of evidence (BOE), which includes a series of mass values that represent the exact beliefs in… Show more

“…For this reason, the developed model is intended to be applicable to the entire logistics industry rather than just to the included alternatives or a customer. Thus, a 15x15 influence matrix was sent to each expert in order to determine the relationships among the performance indicators in the model, and then, by applying the majority rule of the experts' choices (Beynon, 2006), the final influence matrix was generated.…”

“…In some applications of DS theory to MCDA, including DeKorvin and Shipley (1993), Yang and Singh (1994) and Butler et al (1995), the BBA is based on uncertainty in preference over alternatives, reflecting conflicting criteria. A recent series of papers, including Beynon et al (2000) and Beynon (2002Beynon ( , 2005Beynon ( , 2006, systematically utilizes DS theory to develop a DS-AHP procedure for GDM that improves the "standard" AHP analysis (Saaty 1980) by reducing the number of pairwise comparisons and eliminating the need to check for inconsistent pairwise judgements.…”
