Abstract

The article deals with the normalization of indices of the national security of the Russian Federation in the interest of creating an automated system of monitoring and evaluation of this complex activity. It is shown that the normalization of indicators, including their classification, harmonization of units and scales of measurement, and conversion to unified formats of data provides cognitive interoperability and serves as a asis for adequate, objective, and reliable generalized assessment of the national security of the Russian Federation. The article also describes the features of relative indices and options of their creation. It is demonstrated that the use of relative measures avoids distortion in the development of a common statistical pattern and calculating a generalized evaluation. The article describes a new approach to the formalization of qualitative indicators that allows objective analysis and applications in the automated information system.
