This web service allows the generation of a preference relation between a set of alternatives from any outranking relation between them. For each pair of alternatives we can have the following preference situations: indifference (i), preference in favor of the first (p+), preference in favor of the second (p-) and incomparability (j). As the outranking relation can also be bipolar, the preference relation is encoded as a 4-uple of the probabilities that the relation can be in one of the 4 preference situations.

(For outputs, see below)
A list of alternatives. Alternatives can be activated or deactivated via the <active> tag (true or false). By default (no <active> tag), alternatives are considered as active.
The input value should be a valid XMCDA document whose main tag is <alternatives>.
The outranking relation used to compare the objects.
The input value should be a valid XMCDA document whose main tag is <alternativesComparisons>.
Indicates the type of the cutting procedure (normal or bipolar) and the cut level.
The input value should be a valid XMCDA document whose main tag is <methodParameters>.
It must have the following form:
<methodParameters>
<parameter name="bipolar">
<value>
<boolean>%1</boolean>
</value>
</parameter>
<parameter name="cutlvl">
<value>
<real>%2</real>
</value>
</parameter>
</methodParameters>
where:
%1 is a parameter named “Bipolar”. It can have the following values:
true: Yesfalse: NoThe default value is false.
%2 is a parameter named “Cut Level”. This is a float. The default value is 0.5.
The computed preference relation.
The returned value is a XMCDA document whose main tag is <alternativesComparisons>.
A list of messages generated by the algorithm.
The returned value is a XMCDA document whose main tag is <methodMessages>.
