Abstract

The paper describes the problem of decision making based on strings of heterogeneous, i.e. of various formal nature data . Such data strings are taken into consideration in relative assessment of objects or actions characterized by various quantitative and/or qualitative features. The problem is reduced to the problem of weak ordering of heterogeneous spaces and, in particular, it is considered as scalar-, interval-, confidence interval- and general heterogeneous data strings ordering. The solutions are given as maximal elements in weakly ordered sets of heterogeneous data strings . The proposed methods are illustrated by several examples. The similarity of the considered problem to the problem of human decision making based on intuition is shown.
