Abstract

In this paper, we propose a new interactive multiobjective decision making technique, which we call the Sequential Proxy Optimization Technique (SPOT), in order to overcome the drawbacks of the conventional multiobjective decision making methods. Our method combines the desirable features of both the Surrogate Worth Trade-off (SWT) method and the Multiattribute Utility Function (MUF) method. We can interactively derive the preferred solution of the decision maker efficiently by assessing his marginal rate of substitution and maximizing sequentially the local proxy preference function. A numerical example illustrates the feasibility and efficiency of the proposed method.
