Inputs

(For outputs, see below)

criteria

A list of criteria. Criteria can be activated or desactivated 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 <criteria>. It must have the following form:

<criteria>
        <criterion>
                <active>[...]</active>
                [...]
        </criterion>
        [...]
</criteria>

criteriaComparisons

A non-valued relation relative to comparisons of the criteria.

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

<criteriaMatrix>
        <row>
                <criterionID>...</criterionID>
                <column>
                        <criterionID>...</criterionID>
                        <values>
                                <value>
                                        <real>...</real>
                                </value>
                        </values>
                </column>
                [...]
        <row>
        [...]
</criteriaMatrix>

Outputs

transitiveReduction

The transitive reduction is applied and a non-valued relation relative to comparisons of the criteria is generated.

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


messages

A list of messages generated by the algorithm.

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