DEXiR

‘DEXiR’ is a software package for using DEXi models in ‘R’.

DEXi models are hierarchical qualitative multi-criteria decision models developed according to the method DEX (Decision EXpert), using the program DEXi or DEXiWin.

A typical workflow with ‘DEXiR’ consists of: 1. reading a .dxi file, previously made using the DEXi software (function read_dexi()), 2. creating one or more data frames containing input values of decision alternatives, 3. evaluating those alternatives (function evaluate()). 4. analyzing alternatives (selective_explanation(), plus_minus(), compare_alternatives()), 5. making charts.

‘DEXiR’ is restricted to using models produced externally by the ‘DEXi’ software and does not provide functionality for creating and/or editing DEXi models directly in ‘R’.
