In our previous research, we used to set thee thresholds to predefined values in the [0; 1]-interval, changing with a step of 0.1, 0.05, or 0.025, according to the desired precision, but we have observed some flaws in this approach, and suggest new, more accurate, ways to determine these values. We use as example data sets, derived from the World Economic Forum’s annual Global Competitiveness Reports, for the 28 European Union Member States between 2008 and 2014 year.
