A Method for Revealing Implicit Emphasized Criteria for Decision Makers on Social Issues

Social issues are complex, and solving them from a single perspective has other negative effects. We set up various Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), in which balanced measures need to be implemented to achieve KPIs. However, it is not easy to find an effective measure that considers the values of each decision maker because the emphasized criteria for the decision maker may not be clear. Furthermore, in addition to the best per-spective, the decision maker may consider multiple perspectives, such as the next best perspective. In this paper, we propose a method for revealing implicit emphasized criteria for the decision maker on social issues, visualizing multiple perspectives such as the best perspective and the next best perspective of the decision maker, and output multiple perspectives. After the decision maker confirms the effect and influence of the measure, the proposed method generates a distribution, defined as a Goodness distribution, that indicates whether the measure is good or bad. Thus using the Goodness distribution, the method reveals implicit emphasized criteria for the decision maker, visualizes multiple important perspectives for the decision maker, and presents the effective measure.
