Abstract:

In the context of multicriteria decision making whose aggregation process is based on the Choquet integral, bi-capacities can be regarded as a natural extension of capacities when the underlying evaluation scale is bipolar. The notion of entropy, recently generalized to capacities to measure their uniformity, is now extended to bi-capacities. We show that the resulting entropy measure has a very natural interpretation in terms of the Choquet integral and satisfies many natural properties that one would expect from an entropy measure.
