Hierarchical sorting

The possibilities stated in the shde are hierarchically sorted, i.e. the top methods are usually regarded as the most reliable ones. 

Single hierarchical sort (weight vector calculation) and inspection. 

The analytic hierarchy process (SHP) to determine the index weight was used. By establishing the hierarchy model, to construct judgment matrix, hierarchical sorting and consistency check to confirm the weight. By designing the questionnaire, more than 50 invited experts to participate in the questionnaire, and calculate the survey results, the weights were obtained as show in Table 4.

Priestley s individualistic notion of speaking from his own observations contrasts vividly with Lavoisier s sense of participating in a sort of community of opinions, in which it is often difficult for everyone to know his own Although Lavoisier was the undisputed leader of this hierarchical community, the cooperative division of theoretical and empirical labour amongits members, and their readiness to close ranks against external criticism and dissent, betokened a collectivist enterprise at odds with Priestley s individualistic preference... 

Visualization. All opened files are named as entered by the user, are represented in the hierarchical left panel and sorted by opening order. In this way, each file can be selected, navigated, and analyzed independently as previously described (see Note 14).
