Description
MEREC - Method Based on the Removal Effects of Criteria.
Description
Implementation of the MEthod based on the Removal Effects of Criteria - MEREC- a new objective weighting method for determining criteria weights for Multiple Criteria Decision Making problems, created by Mehdi Keshavarz-Ghorabaee (2021) <doi:10.3390/sym13040525>. Given a decision matrix, the function return the Merec´s weight vector and all intermediate matrix/vectors used to calculate it.
