plotCriteriaMatrix

criteria

A list of criteria. Criteria can be activated or desactivated via the <active> tag (true or false). By default (no <active> tag), criteria are considered as active.

The input value should be a valid XMCDA document whose main tag is <criteria>. It must have the following form:

<criteria>
        <criterion>
                <active>[...]</active>
                [...]
        </criterion>
        [...]
</criteria>

criteriaMatrix

A valued relation relative to comparisons of the criteria. A numeric <value> indicates a the valuation for each <pair> of the relation. If there is no such valuation, the value should be <NA/>

The input value should be a valid XMCDA document whose main tag is <criteriaMatrix>. It must have the following form:

<criteriaMatrix>
        <row>
                < criterionID>a01</criterionID>
                <column>
                        <criterionID>[...]</criterionID>
                        <values>
                                <value>
                                        <real>[...]</real>
                                </value>
                        </values>
                </column>
                [...]
        </row>
        [...]
</criterionMatrix>

parameters

Generates a graph taking into account the proposed options.

The input value should be a valid XMCDA document whose main tag is <programParameters>. It must have the following form:

<programParameters>
        <parameter id="valued_graph" name="Valued graph">
                <values>
                        <value>

                </values>
        </parameter>
        <parameter id="use_color" name="Colors in the graph">
                <values>
                        <value>
                                <label>%4</label>
                        </value>
                </values>
        </parameter>
        <parameter id="selected_color" name="Selected color">
                <values>
                        <value>
                                <label>%5</label>
                        </value>
                </values>
        </parameter>
</programParameters>
