Abstract

In the group decision of this paper, it is assumed that the practice is entrusted to each decision maker. In such a decision problem, it is not necessary for a decision maker to obey the group decision completely, but necessary to consider it into his/her final decision. In this paper, when a group of decision makers give the comparisons of alternatives, their individual decisions are obtained as the interval weights of alternatives so as to have a common weight. The problem is formulated based on Interval AHP. By relaxing two conditions of the individual decisions for a consensus, a decision maker has to admit the modification of his/her initial judgments and/or the enlargement of his/her individual decision.
