This paper presents the fuzzy induced heavy ordered weighted averaging (FIHOWA) operator. It is an aggregation operator that uses the main characteristics of three well known aggregation operators: the heavy OWA, the induced OWA and the fuzzy OWA operator. Therefore, this operator provides a parameterized family of aggregation operators that includes the OWA operator and the total operator as s...

This study discusses some variants of Ordered WeightedAveraging (OWA) operators and related information aggregation methods. Indetail, we define the Extended Ordered Weighted Sum (EOWS) operator and theExtended Ordered Weighted Averaging (EOWA) operator, which are applied inscientometrics evaluation where the preference is over finitely manyrepresentative works. As...

We analyze different types of aggregation operators. We focus on the generalized OWA (GOWA) operator and the Quasi-OWA operator which generalize a wide range of aggregation operators. We also analyze a recent approach that unifies the weighted average and the OWA operator in the same formulation called ordered weighted averaging – weighted averaging (OWAWA) operator. We introduce the fuzzy gene...

The aim of this paper is to introduce a unified model between the generalized ordered weighted averaging (GOWA) operator and the generalized probabilistic aggregation. We present the generalized probabilistic OWA (GPOWA) operator. It is a new aggregation operator that unifies the probability with the OWA operator considering the degree of importance that each concept has in the analysis. It inc...

In this paper we propose a generalization of Atanassov’s operators and we prove that these generalized operators and OWA operators of dimension 2 provide the same numerical results. We apply Atanassov’s operators to image compression and use different families of OWA operators in order to calculate the coefficient α of the Atanassov’s operator. Keywords— Image compressing, OWA operators, Atanas...

The ordered weighted aggregation ~OWA! operator has received more and more attention since its appearance. One key point in the OWA operator is to determine its associated weights. In this article, I first briefly review existing main methods for determining the weights associated with the OWA operator, and then, motivated by the idea of normal distribution, I develop a novel practical method f...

We study different types of aggregation operators such as the ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operator and the generalized OWA (GOWA) operator. We analyze the use of OWA operators in the Minkowski distance. We will call these new distance aggregation operator the Minkowski ordered weighted averaging distance (MOWAD) operator. We give a general overview of this type of generalization and study ...

We develop a new decision making model based on the use of a unified approach between the probability, the weighted average and the ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operator in an uncertain environment that can be assessed with fuzzy numbers (FNs). We present a new aggregation operator called the fuzzy probabilistic ordered weighted averaging – weighted averaging (FPOWAWA) operator. We study it...

In this work we deal with the problem of using OWA operators in color image reduction algorithms. For this reason, we study OWA operators defined on an arbitrary finite lattice endowed with a t-norm and a t-conorm. In the case of RGB color images, we apply OWA operators defined on a finite product lattice. Depending on the OWA operator considered, we see that the reduced images become brighter ...

We analyze the use of the ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operator in the selection of human resources in sport management. We use different business decision-making techniques for doing so. We consider the use of the Hamming distance, the adequacy coefficient and the index of maximum and minimum level. That is, we use the OWA distance (OWAD), the OWA adequacy coefficient (OWAAC) and the OWA i...
