A new parsimonious AHP methodology: Assigning priorities to many objects by comparing pairwise few reference objects

作者:

Highlights:

• We propose a new parsimonious AHP methodology.

• It can be applied to problems with large number of elements to be compared.

• It reduces in a considerable way the number of pairwise comparisons involved in the method.

• We tested the proposed methodology on a sample of university students.
