Abstract

Quite often, scientific papers are the result of collaboration among many researchers. Each researcher focuses primarily on their part of the work, having different ideas about the parts provided by others. It leads to overestimating one's contribution to the research and underestimating the contribution and importance of others. In addition, those whose contribution to the study is relatively significant have a better understanding of the value of the work of the other team members. Therefore, participation is often presented as a verbal description of the work. Unfortunately, this is insufficient when the need is to distribute the reward fairly (e.g., a monetary bonus) for the achievement.
In the work, we propose a group decision-making method that establishes some compromise numerical ranking based on pairwise comparisons of alternatives. The model will, on the one hand, consider all stakeholders' opinions and, on the other hand, will give these opinions the right weight. The presented model can be used in many situations where there is a need for proper reward distribution, and the rewarded team wants to avoid entrusting the reward distribution to one individual.
