Comprehensive use of the Pareto principle and the analytic hierarchy process to increase the substantiation of alternative ranking results

The article provides a general description of the analytic hierarchy process and analyzes the problem of the influence of Pareto-inefficient alternatives on ranking results. It is shown that the presence of Pareto-inefficient alternatives in the original set can lead to erroneous ranking, and the lack of a mechanism within the framework of the analytic hierarchy process that confirms or disproves the existence of such alternatives decreases the level of validity of the obtained results. An approach to the integrated use of the Pareto principle and the analytic hierarchy process is proposed. The possibility of its practical application is shown on a specific example of calculations. The use of this approach will increase the validity of the ranking results of alternatives by either eliminating Pareto-inefficient ones from consideration or confirming their absence. © 2021, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.
