Weak Consistency: A New Approach to Consistency in the Saaty's Analytic Hierarchy Process
Original language description
In the decision making methods based on the pairwise comparison there is very important to enter the preferences of compared elements in the rational way. Only in this case we are able to obtain the reasonable solution. In the Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP) there is set a strict consistency conditionin order to keep the rationality of preference intensities between compared elements. But this requirement for the Saaty's matrix is not achievable in the real situations because of the Saaty's scale whichis used in this method. That is why instead of the consistency condition we suggest a weak consistency condition which is very natural and more suitable for the linguistic d escriptions of the Saaty's scale and as a result of it, it is easier to reach this requirement in the real situations. In addition, if we order compared elements from the most preferred to the least preferred, it is very easy to check if the weak consistency is satisfied.
