Provider:PyXMCDA
SOAP service’s name:
 thresholdsSensitivityAnalysis-PyXMCDA (see SOAP requests for details)

Description

This web service allows to compute intervals of stability on indifference and preference thresholds defined on a set of criteria. Under each interval, a threshold is free to move without impacting the local outranking situations of the alternatives on the criteria. The wider is an interval, the less important is an imprecise fixation.

Inputs

(For outputs, see below)

criteria (optional)

A list of criteria. Criteria can be activated or deactivated via the <active> tag (true or false). By default (no <active> tag), criteria are considered as active.

The input value should be a valid XMCDA document whose main tag is <criteriaScales>. It must have the following form:

<criteria>
<criterion id=”[…]”>
<active>[…]</active>

</criterion> […]

</criteria>

criteriaScales

The input value should be a valid XMCDA document whose main tag is <criteriaScales>. It must have the following form:

<criteriaScales>
<criterionScale>

<criterionID>…</criterionID> <scales>

<scale>
<quantitative>
<preferenceDirection>min</preferenceDirection>

</quantitative>

</scale>

</scales>

</criterionScale>

</criteriaScales>

alternatives

A list of alternatives. Alternatives can be activated or deactivated via the <active> tag (true or false). By default (no <active> tag), alternatives are considered as active.

The input value should be a valid XMCDA document whose main tag is <alternatives>. It must have the following form:

<alternatives>
<alternative>
<active>[…]</active>

</alternative> […]

</alternatives>

performanceTable

A performance table. The evaluations should be numeric values, i.e. <real>, <integer> or <rational>.

The input value should be a valid XMCDA document whose main tag is <performanceTable>.

Outputs

criteriaThresholdsBounds

The set of bounds on indifference and preference thresholds generated by the algorithm.

The returned value is a XMCDA document whose main tag is <criteriaValues>.

messages

A list of messages generated by the algorithm.

The returned value is a XMCDA document whose main tag is <methodMessages>.
