There are infinitely many eigen weight vectors which can be constructed for any given data of estimated weight ratios. Assuming that the reliability of these individual ratios can be different, we study the properties of the different eigen weight vectors, including that of Saaty and that recently proposed by Cogger and Yu. A general framework for the construction of eigen weight vectors based on the reliability of the data will be proposed and discussed.
