Centered OWA Operators

Soft Computing, 2006
We introduce the idea of centered OWA operators. We define these as OWA operators that give preference to argument values that lie in the middle between the largest and the smallest. An important class of these using Gaussian type weights is investigated in considerable detail. We describe a number of different examples of centered OWA operators.

The uncertain OWA operator

International Journal of Intelligent Systems, 2002
Summary: The Ordered Weighted Averaging (OWA) operator was introduced by Yager to provide a method for aggregating several inputs that lie between the max and min operators. In this article, we investigate the uncertain OWA operator in which the associated weighting parameters cannot be specified, but value ranges can be obtained and each input ...

Aggregation of OWA Operators

IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems, 2018
Inspired by the real needs of group decision problems, aggregation of ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operators is studied and discussed. Our results can be applied for data acting on any real interval, such as the standard scales $[0,1]$ and $[0,\infty [$ , bipolar scales $[-1,1]$ and $\mathbb {R}=]-\infty, \infty [$ , etc.

Mm-OWA: A Generalization of OWA Operators

IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems, 2018
We characterize those operators that satisfy the properties of monotonicity, permutation invariance, positive homogeneity, and translation invariance. As these operators do not necessarily satisfy comonotonic additivity, their class is larger than that of ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operators.

Sensitivity Analysis of the OWA Operator

IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics, Part B (Cybernetics), 2008
The successful design and application of the ordered weighted averaging (OWA) method as a decision-making tool depend on the efficient computation of its order weights. The most popular methods for determining the order weights are the fuzzy linguistic quantifiers approach and the minimal variability method, which give different behavior patterns for ...

The weighted OWA operator

International Journal of Intelligent Systems, 1997
Summary: One of the properties that the OWA operator satisfies is commutativity. This condition, that is not satisfied by the weighted mean, stands for equal reliability of all the information sources that supply the data. In this article we define a new combination function, the WOWA (weighted OWA), that combines the advantages of the OWA operator and

OWA Operators on Complete Lattices

IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems, 2018
Considering some aggregation functions, we define ${\bf B}$ - $ A$ -weighting vectors. Then, a definition for ordered weighted average (OWA) operators is given based on ${\bf B}$ - $ A$ -weighting vectors. Moreover, we show that our proposed definition for OWA operators over complete lattices is a generalization of the given definition by ...

Dependent OWA Operators

2006
Yager [1] introduced several families of ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operators, in which the associated weights depend on the aggregated arguments. In this paper, we develop a new dependent OWA operator, and study some of its desirable properties.
