Synthetic measure

A synthetic measure (or synthetic indicator) is a value that is the result of combining other metrics, which are measurements of various features.

Examples

Quality of service

There is a method to measure quality of service in hotels. In related study [1] authors aggregate tourist opinions, measured on a scale from 1 to 10. Synthetic measure (indicator) of service quality in each hotel is calculated with the help of the aggregation operator.

Project performance

Other study[2] proposed to use classical parameters EV, PV and AC to carry out the synthetic measure of project performance.

Rankings of countries

Different normalized stimulants and destimulants were used in research[3] to create synthetic measure that selects countries with the best and the worst levels of implementation of Europe 2020 targets.

gollark: Stock, not with BDA?
gollark: https://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/AMD-RX-580-vs-AMD-R9-380X/3923vs3532I'm using this to get a rough idea of the differences.
gollark: What card did you said you already had though? An R9 390? I don't think the 580 would actually be much better than it.
gollark: Different cooling and slightly different factoy speeds. Also different amounts of video RAM though I think all 580s are 8GB.
gollark: Is that a different picture?
