How researchers see this paper

The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Fair and square: the four sides of distributive justice (2001, background): “Economists, on the other hand, have specific meanings for this, Pareto efficiency being the basic concept (Pareto, 1906).”
A new additive ratio assessment (ARAS) method in multicriteria decision‐making (2010, methodology): “Classical methods of multicriteria optimization and determination of priority and utility function were first applied by Pareto in 1896 (Pareto 1971).”
An Almost Integration-free Approach to Ordered Response Models (2006, background): “We know, following Pareto (1906) and Debreu (1959), that in such a case only the indifference curves, described by equations ' ( ) constantU x = ', are determined and observable, but that the function U(.) as such has no cardinal interpretation.”
Policy invariance under reward transformations for multi-objective reinforcement learning (2017, background): “Compromises between competing objectives can be defined using the concept of Pareto dominance [4].”
Eigentriphones for Context-Dependent Acoustic Modeling (2013, background): “For instance, it is found that the distribution of triphones in the HUB2 training set of the Wall Street Journal corpus [1] obeys the Pareto Principle (or the 80/20 Rule) [2]: roughly 80% of triphone occurrences in the corpus come from 20% of all the distinct triphones in the corpus [3].”
