SOAP service’s name:
 criteriaDescriptiveStatistics-ITTB (see SOAP requests for details)

Description

This web service provides statistics about the criteria. It computes for every criterion the average value of criteria’s evaluations, the maximum value, the minimum value, the variance, the standard deviation as well as the median value.The criteria’s evaluations are supposed to be real or integer numeric values.

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>

alternatives

A list of alternatives. Alternatives can be activated or desactivated 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 only real or integer numeric values, i.e. <real> or <integer>.

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


Outputs

criteriaMeanValues

Average values of criteria’s evaluations

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


criteriaMaximumValues

Maximum values of criteria’s evaluations

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


criteriaMinimumValues

Minimum values of criteria’s evaluations

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


criteriaVariance

Variance of criteria’s evaluations

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


criteriaStandardDeviation

Standard deviation of criteria’s evaluations

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


criteriaMedianValues

Median values of criteria’s evaluations

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>.
