Abstract
An exemplary method for determining a singular impact of a base criterion includes selecting the base criterion and a trade criterion from a plurality of criteria and selecting a starting alternative and a target alternative. A series of virtual alternatives are then created, initially based on the starting alternative, by sequentially eliminating an impact of each non-selected criteria from the plurality of criteria. A final virtual alternative is compared to the target alternative and the singular impact of the base criterion is determined based on a difference between the final virtual alternative and the target alternative.
Claims8
A method for analyzing an impact of a desired singular tradeoff for a population of users comprising:
- selecting the desired singular tradeoff from the population of users;
- collecting a plurality of singular tradeoffs in a sequential fashion from the population of users;
- processing the plurality of singular tradeoffs;
- analyzing the plurality of singular tradeoffs;
- and
- determining the impact of the desired singular tradeoff based on the analyzed plurality of tradeoffs.
A computer implemented method for generating a price of an item or a feature based on user preference comprising:
- receiving at a server a request for pricing;
- receiving an identification of an item or a feature for which pricing is desired;
- receiving at least a first preference for the identified item or feature;
- and
- generating in response a price for the identified item or feature.
A computer implemented method for generating a price of an item or a feature based on user preference comprising:
- receiving at a server a request for pricing;
- receiving an identification of an item or a feature for which pricing is desired;
- retrieving situational environment information relevant to pricing;
- and
- generating the price based on the identification and the situational environment information.
