Applications of Multi-Attribute Utility Theory: Comments
1977We would like to consider the review paper by Patrick Humphreys in the context of two other review papers on the same subject, the papers by Huber (1974) and by von Winterfeldt and Fischer (1975), and we intend to show that substantial progress in the applicability of multiattribute utility theory is represented by this sequence of papers.

Multi-attribute utility theory for measuring safety
European Journal of Operational Research, 1982Abstract The advent of new technology, much of which is complex and dangerous, has produced the need for defensible and sound methods for measuring safety and for determining whether a given level of safety is appropriate. This is particularly true in the nuclear industry where most of the opposition to nuclear power is concerned with the safety of ...

Schizophrenia: Multi-Attribute Utility Theory Approach to Selection of Atypical Antipsychotics
Annals of Pharmacotherapy, 2007Background: Current guidelines/algorithms recommend atypical antipsychotics as first-line agents for the treatment of schizophrenia. Because there are extensive healthcare costs associated with the treatment of schizophrenia, many institutions and health systems are faced with making restrictive formulary ...

INTEGRATING VISUALIZATION AND MULTI-ATTRIBUTE UTILITY THEORY FOR ONLINE PRODUCT SELECTION
International Journal of Information Technology & Decision Making, 2007Effectively selling products online is a challenging task. Today's product domains often contain a dizzying variety of brands and models with highly complex sets of characteristics. This paper addresses the problem of supporting product search and selection in domains containing large numbers of alternatives with complex sets of features.

Selection of Inspection Intervals Based on Multi-attribute Utility Theory
2013In the context of complex equipment, inspection has an important role to play in maintaining operations at a suitable performance. In fact, for this kind of system, failures are not immediate. Therefore, the concept of delay time is very useful as a two-step failure process, as a basis for constructing inspection models.

Multi-Attribute Utility Theory: Models and Assessment Procedures
1975This article reviews multi-attribute utility theory under a measurement theoretic perspective. It describes and classifies decision situations according to three salient aspects of choice: uncertainty, time-variability, and multi-dimensionality. For each choice situation the main mathematical representations, their interrelations and differences are ...

Multi-Attribute Utility Theory
2012Multi-attribute utility theory is an extension of Utility theory developed to help decision-makers assign utility values, taking into consideration the decision-maker’s preferences, to outcomes by evaluating these in terms of multiple attributes and combining these individual assignments to obtain overall utility measures.

Application of Multi-Attribute Utility Theory
1977Tversky (1967) identified a major goal of scientific investigation as the decomposition of complex phenomena into sets of ‘basic’ factors according to specifiable rules of combination. Following this approach, this review evaluates Multi-attribute Utility Theory (MAUT) in terms of its claim to success in providing an axiomatization of decomposition and

A Nonlinear Multi-Attribute Utility Theory
1985In this paper we discuss a new nonlinear Multi-Attribute Utility Function (MAUF) which is quasi-concave. Three types of information on the local scaling constants (coefficients) are defined which are partial, complete, and global. We discuss optimality and how to obtain the most preferred alternative using a partially known MAUF.
