Rankin Inlet PolarDARN radar observations of duskward moving Sun-aligned optical forms [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2008
On 15 February 2007, several duskward moving sun-aligned (SA) auroral forms have been observed by the all-sky camera at Resolute Bay, Nunavut (Canada). Concurrent observations with the Rankin Inlet (RANK) PolarDARN HF radar within the field-of-view of

Inter-Criteria Dependencies-Based Decision Support in the Sustainable wind Energy Management

open access: yesEnergies, 2019
Decision problems related to the wind energy require considering many, often interrelated and dependent on each other, criteria. To solve such problems, decision systems based on Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) methods are usually used ...

Comparison of the RAFSI and PIV method in multi-criteria decision making: application to turning processes

open access: yesInternational Journal of Metrology and Quality Engineering, 2022
Multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods are used in many fields so as to rank alternatives and find the best one. However, rank reversal after adding or removing an alternative can occur in using some of the methods.

Investigating Rank Reversal in Reciprocal Fuzzy Preference Relation Based on Additive Consistency: Causes and Solutions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Rank reversal is a common phenomenon in decision making. Rank reversal occurs when a new alternative is added to (or removed from) a set of alternatives, which causes change in the ranking order of the alternatives. This paper studies the possible causes

Reverse Ranking by Graph Structure [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 2016 ACM SIGMETRICS International Conference on Measurement and Modeling of Computer Science, 2016
Distances in a network capture relations between nodes and are the basis of centrality, similarity, and influence measures. Often, however, the relevance of a node u to a node v is more precisely measured not by the magnitude of the distance, but by the number of nodes that are closer to v than u. That is, by the rank

An Infeasibility Condition for Rank Reversal in the Analytic Hierarchy Process

open access: yesAxioms
The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is one of the most widely applied tools in Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM), yet it is often criticized for rank reversal when a new option is introduced.

Simpson's aggregation paradox in nonparametric statistical analysis: Theory, computation, and susceptibility in public health data

open access: yesFrontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2023
This study establishes sufficient conditions for observing instances of Simpson's (data aggregation) Paradox under rank sum scoring (RSS), as used, e.g., in the Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney (WMW) rank sum test.

THE RANK REVERSAL PROBLEM IN MULTI-CRITERIA DECISION MAKING: A LITERATURE REVIEW [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Despite the importance of multicriteria decision-making (MCDM) techniques for constructing effective decision models, there are many criticisms due to the occurrence of a problem called rank reversal.
