Abstract
The job of the AHP expert is to input his/her perceptions into a pairwise comparison matrix; however, there are times when the expert is unable to provide his/her opinions. This can be for many reasons such as there are numerous pairwise comparisons to be completed or the expert is unsure about the values that must be included in the pairwise comparison matrix. The AHP method cannot be performed without a complete comparison matrix; therefore, the aim of this article is to provide a novel approach based on the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) technique to estimate the missing values in pairwise comparison matrices. According to the findings of this study, the proposed algorithm can offer a suggested value for the pairwise comparison matrix with an acceptable Consistency Ratio (CR). Furthermore, the time required to find the suggested value is quite short.
期刊介绍：
IJAHP is a scholarly journal that publishes papers about research and applications of the Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP) and Analytic Network Process(ANP), theories of measurement that can handle tangibles and intangibles; these methods are often applied in multicriteria decision making, prioritization, ranking and resource allocation, especially when groups of people are involved. The journal encourages research papers in both theory and applications. Empirical investigations, comparisons and exemplary real-world applications in diverse areas are particularly welcome.
