The Integrated Preference Functional (IPF) is presented for comparing the quality of proposed sets of near-pareto-optimal solutions to bi-criteria optimization problems. Also, some examples of decision maker preference functions are provided and the calculation of the resulting IPF for specific solution sets and a simple family of combined objectives is also illustrated.
