Calculation of Threshold Value by Expert Methods

Armins Laurs, Zigurds Markovics

Abstract


Expert information in the form of decision or evaluation is often used to solve tasks with the help of artificial intelligence theory and methods.
The usage of information has strict requirements for the degree of expert consensus.
Unfortunately, the format of calculation of the degree of consensus does not cover in the practice existing spectrum of the task format, so it is necessary adapt a practical task to a theoretical method format. The paper describes one of the methods and research being evaluated.


Keywords:

Degree of consensus; emission calculations; expert methods; herd thresholds; Pearson criterion; ranks; ranking correlation; statistical reliability
