Enhancement on sensitivity analysis of priority in analytic hierarchy process
The sensitivity analysis of priority in AHP was initiated by Masuda (1990). Although the Masuda sensitivity coefficient is by far one of the best, this note will point out some of its disadvantages and suggest an alternative sensitivity coefficient. The same example used in Masuda (1990) is discussed here for comparison and this shows clearly that our new coefficients reveal the sensitivity of an AHP more accurately than Masuda's coefficients.
