An Aggregation Algorithm for Group AHP Judgment Matrices Based on the Collective Operator of Spanning Trees
The existing group aggregation algorithms based on AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process) judgment matrices pay more attentions on the determination of the weights of experts
and neglect the relationships among the values of judgment matrices.Therefore
a new aggregation algorithm based on the collective operator of spanning trees is proposed in this paper.The algorithm obtains complete consistency collective matrix using collective operator of spanning trees and the relationship between a judgment matrix and a spanning tree of a simple undirected graph.In the algorithm
a complete consistency collective matrix and a group incidence matrix
which represent the individual consistency and group incidence of the values of judgment matrices
are used to compute group collective result under the restraints of consistency and similarity.Finally
a numerical example shows that the method is feasible and effective.
