English term or phrase: weak differences independence (WDI)
I'm trying to translate that term into Spanish. I reckon it will be something like "Independencia Débil de las Diferencias", however, I cannot find any relliable source to confirm it. It is a technical text.
The context (talking about preference independence):

"Other types of value functions correspond to other concepts of dependence-and independence among criteria as weak differences independence (WDI), Thomsen condition, etc."

Thanks in advance
