摘要
Positive reciprocal matrices (PRMs) are the basic elements used by the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) for resolving an important class of multi-criteria decision problems. A PRM, A = (a(ij)), is square with all a(ij) > 0 and a(ji) = 1/a(ij). We discuss characteristics of such matrices based on an analysis of both real-world and randomly generated sets.
