Main article purpose – the analysis of the advantages and shortcomings for various methods of weight coefficients (WC) determination for factors sets, considered with multicriteria decision making. Five methods are compared: method of cards; AHP (Analytical Hierarchy Process); Direct weighting; Fixed point scoring; MACBETH (Measuring Attractiveness by Categorial Based Evaluation Technique). The last method allows to combine two types of information: about preferences of the persons, which making decisions; about importance of criteria and their interactions, limited in couples of criteria. Authors emphasize, that expedient for application of the scheme of WC can depend of the chosen method. For methods of cards; AHP, MACBETH in article are given the concrete examples of their application, which illustrate technique of weight coefficients calculation.
Key words: multi-criteria analysis,weight schemes,aggregation,hierarchisation,method of cards,method AHP,method MACBETH
