Theory and practice of expert methods. Monograph

The monograph discusses issues related to expert evaluation of complex systems. It covers technologies for conducting surveys, methods for calculating the weight coefficients of influencing factors, and approaches to formalizing research objects. The advantages and disadvantages of the procedures and algorithms used are analyzed. It shows how expert assessments can be applied in various models and metrics. Examples of implementation in tasks such as zoning territories, situation assessment, and choosing the most promising alternative are provided. The monograph is intended for researchers, graduate students, master's students, and engineers of various specialties who use methods of multi-criteria evaluation of complex systems in their research and development.
