Our research focused on testing various characteristics of pairwise comparison (PC) matrices in controlled experiments. About 270 students have been involved in the test exercises and the final pool contained 450 matrices. Our team conducted experiments with matrices of different size obtained...

An important variant of a key problem for multi-attribute decision making is considered. We study the extension of the pairwise comparison matrix to the case when only partial information is available: for some pairs no comparison is given. It is natural to define the inconsistency of a...

Pairwise comparison matrices are often used in Multi-attribute Decision Making forweighting the attributes or for the evaluation of the alternatives with respect to a criteria. Matrices provided by the decision makers are rarely consistent and it is important to index the degree of...

We show that optimal partisan districting in the plane with geographical constraints is an NP-complete problem.

Using ecological data compiled from scientific literature on pest, pathogen and weed species characteristic in maize cultures in Hungary, we defined monthly climate profile indicators and applied them to complete a comparative analysis of the historical and modelled climate change scenario...

Nowadays, the scientific and social significance of the research of climatic effects has become outstanding. In order to be able to predict the ecological effects of the global climate change, it is necessary to study monitoring databases of the past and explore connections. For the case study...

The nucleolus offers a desirable payoff-sharing solution in cooperative games, thanks to its attractive properties-it always exists and lies in the core (if the core is nonempty), and it is unique. The nucleolus is considered as the most `stable' solution in the sense that it lexicographically...

Ezen jegyzetet elektronikus jegyzetnek szánjuk. A lineáris programozási feladatok CPLEX LP kódját sok feladat esetében megadjuk. Ezek a kódok változtatás nélkül futtathatóak, megkönnyítve az eredmények reprodukálását. Ez a módszer a tanulást megkönnyíti, viszont a jegyzet...

A cikkben bemutatunk egy módszert országok (vagy egyéb kockázatközösségek) halandósági mintázataik alapján történő csoportosítására (klaszterezésére). A bemutatandó módszer a görbék klaszterezésén alapul, ami viszonylag új területnek számít az adatelemzésben. A...

We introduce a new two-sided stable matching problem that describes the summer internship matching practice of an Australian university. The model is a case between two models of Kamada and Kojima on matchings with distributional constraints. We study three solution concepts, the strong and weak...
