TL;DR
The article discusses procedures and models that have been proposed to aggregate multicriteria evaluations when the scale of each criterion is of one of these two types of bipolar and univariate or unipolar and bivariate.

A comparative examination of the models of adaptive behavior employed in psychology and economics shows that in almost all respects the latter postulate a much greater complexity in the choice mechanisms, and a much larger capacity in the organism for obtaining information and performing computations than do the former.

Evidence is reviewed showing that the positive and negative evaluative processes underlying many attitudes are distinguishable, are characterized by distinct activation functions, are related differentially to attitude ambivalence, have distinguishable antecedents, and tend to gravitate from a bivariate toward a bipolar structure when the underlying beliefs are the target of deliberation or a guide for behavior.

In “continuous” optimization convex functions play a central role, and linear programming may be viewed as the optimization of very special (linear) objective functions over very special convex domains (polyhedra).

A unified framework based on former work by the authors is extended by incorporating the idea of theory-anti-subsumption related to Plotkin's generalization and should allow automated reasoning tools to deal with different ways of connecting accepted and rejected propositions.
Journal of Multi-Criteria Decision AnalysisApplications of the MACBETH Approach in the Framework of an Additive Aggregation Model
220 Citations1997Carlos A. Bana e Costa, Jean‐Claude Vansnick
The usefulness of MACBETH as a tool to facilitate decision support is illustrated by describing its application in two real public decision situations where the authors acted as facilitators, and how the approach can serve as a weighting procedure to determine the scaling constants of an additive aggregation model.
Fuzzy Sets and SystemsThe Choquet integral for the aggregation of interval scales in multicriteria decision making
185 Citations2003Christophe Labreuche
This paper addresses the question of which models fit with information concerning the preferences of the decision maker over each attribute and shows that the conditions induced by these information plus some intuitive conditions lead to a unique possible aggregation operator: the Choquet integral.

A probabilistic approach to multicriteria decision problems can take in due account the uncertainty that is inevitably present in preference evaluations and makes comparable preference evaluations that come in entirely different scales.

An analysis on the use of integrals defined for non-additive measures (or capacities) as the Choquet and the Sipos integral, and the multilinear model, seen as extensions of pseudo-Boolean functions, and used as a means to model interaction between criteria in a multicriteria decision making problem.

A four-valued paraconsistent logic is described in the paper as a more suitable language for the purposes of the research to define an extended preference structure able to represent lack of information, uncertainty, ambiguity, multidimensional and conflicting preferences, using formal logic as the basic formalism.

The Choquet integral w.r.t. bi-capacities is defined, and is a generalization of Cumulative Prospect Theory models, which can bring much more flexibility in representing preferences.

42 Citations2001Salvatore Greco, Benedetto Matarazzo +1 more
A general model of conjoint measurement is proposed that is able to represent inconsistent data that are often encountered in preferential information, due to hesitation of decision makers, unstable character of their preferences, imprecise or incomplete information and the like, and can be represented in a meaningful way by "if...,then..." decision rules induced from rough approximations.

It is shown that the Choquet integral is the unique linear interpolator between vertices of the hypercube, using the least possible number of vertices, and it is shown it can be also casted into this framework for bi-capacities.

The aim of this paper in two parts is to present the machinery behind bi-capacities, and thus remains on a rather theoretical level, although some parts are firmly rooted in decision theory, notably cooperative game theory.

This paper shows how the bilattice can be associated with a second biordinal structure, which no longer is bilatticial but bipolar, and shows how additional inference relations in the logic FOUR can be obtained by exploiting the two preorders associated with this structure.
