Composite indicator for the assessment of Sustainability. The case of Cuban nature-based tourism destinations.
(ELSEVIER, 2013)
This paper presents a methodology for building a composite indicator to evaluate the sustainability of nature-based tourism destinations. It combines Principal Component Analysis (PCA), the distance to a reference point, ...
Constructing Knowledge Economy Composite Indicators using an MCA-DEA approach
Composite indicators are a remarkably useful tool in policy analysis and public communication for assessing phenomena, such as Knowledge-Based Economy (KBE), that cannot be expressed by means of a simple indicator. The ...
