Multiple-attribute and multilevel synthetic evaluation model and its application

On the basis of analyzing the flaws of present multiple-attribute and multilevel evaluation methods, concerning the problem of characteristics of the multiple-attribute and multilevel system's appraisal and the particular emphasis onthe respective attributes in the evaluation process, as well as its relevance to the environment, an optimal attribute systemis proposed, and the multiplicative analytic hierarchy process (MAHP) is used to obtain subjective weight coefficients andthe objective weight coefficient evaluating method is given. The deviation between the index value of each level and thevalues of the same index of other levels are formulated, and an optimal model is gained, thus establishing the weight coefficientsof the whole optimal attribute system. Furthermore, the detailed implementation procedure of this method is introduced. Besides, favorable results have been gained by applying the model to the practical problems of economic evaluation.
