摘要翻译:
两两比较被用于各种决策情况,在这些情况下,选择方案的重要性应该以数字尺度来衡量。一种常用的确定优先级的方法是基于乘法两两比较矩阵的右特征向量。在这种情况下,我们考虑了两个单调性公理。首先,增加成对比较矩阵的任意条目不允许导致反直觉的秩反转,也就是说,如果在改变之前不是这样(秩单调性),则对应行中的受欢迎的备选方案的排序不能低于任何其他备选方案。其次,相同的修改不应降低所青睐的替代方案的归一化权重(权重单调性)。几何平均法满足了这两个性质,而特征向量法却违背了这两个性质。这些公理并不唯一地确定几何平均值。通过仿真研究了特征向量法中这两个单调性质与Saaty不一致性指数之间的关系。即使违反这些规则并不是一个常见的问题,即使对于严重不一致的矩阵,所有决策者都应该被告知增加矩阵条目可能发生的这种意想不到的后果。

英文摘要:
Pairwise comparisons are used in a wide variety of decision situations where the importance of alternatives should be measured on a numerical scale. One popular method to derive the priorities is based on the right eigenvector of a multiplicative pairwise comparison matrix. We consider two monotonicity axioms in this setting. First, increasing an arbitrary entry of a pairwise comparison matrix is not allowed to result in a counter-intuitive rank reversal, that is, the favoured alternative in the corresponding row cannot be ranked lower than any other alternative if this was not the case before the change (rank monotonicity). Second, the same modification should not decrease the normalised weight of the favoured alternative (weight monotonicity). Both properties are satisfied by the geometric mean method but violated by the eigenvector method. The axioms do not uniquely determine the geometric mean. The relationship between the two monotonicity properties and the Saaty inconsistency index are investigated for the eigenvector method via simulations. Even though their violation turns out not to be a usual problem even for heavily inconsistent matrices, all decision-makers should be informed about the possible occurrence of such unexpected consequences of increasing a matrix entry.
