Normalization of multidimensional data for multi-criteria decision making problems : inversion, displacement, asymmetry / Irik Z. Mukhametzyanov.

This book presents a systematic review of multidimensional normalization methods and addresses problems frequently encountered when using various methods and ways to eliminate them. The invariant properties of the linear normalization methods presented here can be used to eliminate simple problems a...
