AHP Is Intended for More Than Expected Value Calculations
指出Schoner和Wedley提出的自动计算准则重要性的方法仅在备选方案使用单一绝对尺度测量时适用，且此时该方法多余，应先用该尺度算术合并再处理剩余维度。
ABSTRACT In a previous paper, Schoner and Wedley [9] presented a way to automatically compute the importance of criteria from the values of alternatives. The following discussion illustrates that the approach of [9] can only be applied if the alternatives under the criteria are measured with a single absolute scale. However, when this does occur, in part or in all of a decision problem, the approach is extraneous. The measurements can (and should) first be combined with the appropriate arithmetic of that scale which reduces that part of the problem to a single dimension and the result can be taken up with the remaining dimensions for consideration with AHP.
