Bayesian ordinal regression for multiple criteria choice and ranking

Zice Ru et al.

Summary: This paper proposes a novel Bayesian Ordinal Regression approach for multiple criteria choice and ranking problems. The approach utilizes an additive value function model to represent the Decision Maker's preferences in the form of pairwise comparisons. It applies the Bayesian rule to derive a posterior distribution over potential value functions and employs the Metropolis-Hastings method for summarizing the distribution and conducting robustness analysis.

Preference disaggregation method for value-based multi-decision sorting problems with a real-world application in nanotechnology

Milosz Kadzinski et al.

Summary: The paper addresses a problem of multi-decision sorting subject to multiple criteria and presents a new method for dealing with such a problem, including a threshold-based value-driven sorting procedure and constructing interrelated preference models. The practical usefulness of the approach is demonstrated through a case study on risk management related to nanomaterials, highlighting the inferred preference models that can support health and safety managers in reducing associated risks.

Robust stochastic sorting with interacting criteria hierarchically structured

Sally Giuseppe Arcidiacono et al.

Summary: The paper proposes a multiple criteria decision aiding method for sorting problems with hierarchical criteria, using the Choquet integral and Multiple Criteria Hierarchy Process. Robustness concerns are addressed using Robust Ordinal Regression and Stochastic Multicriteria Acceptability Analysis to provide recommendations on sorting problems. The method's applicability is demonstrated through an example evaluating European countries based on economic, governmental, and financial data.
