Keywords: Complex technical systems decision-making hierarchy analysis method optimization

Abstract

The article provides a systematic analysis of T. Saaty's analytic hierarchy process (AHP) in comparison with other methods used to evaluate and support decision-making in complex technical systems. The advantages and disadvantages of AHP in comparison with such approaches as sensitivity analysis, the ELECTRE method and the PROMETHEE method and others are considered. A model of reducing the subjective influence on decision-making is proposed.

Goal – the work is aimed at conducting a systematic analysis of decision support methods and developing a model based on AHP, but characterized by less subjectivity, taking into account the opinions of a wider range of experts.

The research method. The analysis includes criteria for accuracy, ease of use, flexibility, and scalability. Methods of system analysis and mathematical modeling are used.

Based on a systematic analysis of the methods under consideration, a statement is made about the scope of their application. A modified cascade AHP developed by the authors is proposed, which makes it possible to reduce the influence of subjective perception on decision-making.

Using the proposed cascade AHP will make it possible to make informed decisions in complex technical systems, taking into account the composition of opinions of various structural groups of experts in technical systems.
