The Preference Selection Index Method was created in (2010) and provides an innovative approach to determining the relative importance of criteria without pairwise comparisons, unlike the Analytic Hierarchy Process. The Preference Selection Index Method uses statistical methods to calculate the criteria weights and reflects their relative importance in the final decision-making process, offering an objective and non-subjective solution. This method is beneficial in multi-criteria decision analysis. The 'PSIM' package provides a practical and accessible tool for implementing the Preference Selection Index Method in R. It calculates the weights of criteria and makes the method available to researchers, analysts, and professionals without the need to develop complex calculations manually. More details about the Preference Selection Index Method can be found in Maniya K. and Bhatt M. G.(2010) doi:10.1016/j.matdes.2009.11.020.

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-PSIM

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
