OWA Operators in Decision Making∗
نویسنده
چکیده
In 1988 Ronald R. Yager [14] introduced a new aggregation technique based on the ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operators. The goal of this paper is to present a short survey of of OWA operators and illustrate their applicability by a real-life example.

Ordered Weighted Averaging Operators and their Generalizations with Applications in Decision Making
The definition of ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operators and their applications in decision making are reviewed. Also, some generalizations of OWA operators are studied and then, the notion of 2-symmetric OWA operators is introduced. These generalizations are illustrated by some examples.
متن کاملCOMBINING FUZZY QUANTIFIERS AND NEAT OPERATORS FOR SOFT COMPUTING
This paper will introduce a new method to obtain the order weightsof the Ordered Weighted Averaging (OWA) operator. We will first show therelation between fuzzy quantifiers and neat OWA operators and then offer anew combination of them. Fuzzy quantifiers are applied for soft computingin modeling the optimism degree of the decision maker. In using neat operators,the ordering of the inputs is not...
متن کاملOn Properties of Type-1 OWA Operators in Aggregating Uncertain Information for Soft Decision Making
The type-1 OWA operator is a new aggregation operator that is used to directly aggregate fuzzy sets via an OWA mechanism. In this paper, an α-level type-1 OWA operator capable of aggregating the α-cuts of fuzzy sets is proposed. Based on the fuzzy set Representation Theorem, we indicate that a general type-1 OWA operator can be represented by its α-level type-1 OWA operators. This result is ver...
متن کاملDecision Making with Distance Measures, Weighted Averages and Induced Owa Operators
We develop a new decision making model by using distance measures, weighted averages and OWA operators. We introduce the induced ordered weighted averaging – weighted averaging distance (IOWAWAD) operator. We study some of its main properties and particular cases such as the weighted Hamming distance, the induced OWA distance (IOWAD), the arithmetic weighted distance and the arithmetic IOWAD op...
متن کاملA majority model in group decision making using QMA-OWA operators
Group decision-making problems are situations where a number of experts work in a decision process to obtain a final value that is representative of the global opinion. One of the main problems in this context is to design aggregation operators that take into account the individual opinions of the decision makers. One of the most important operators used for synthesizing the individual opinions...
متن کاملOrdered weighted averaging in SAS: A MCDM application
This paper explores the use of the optimization procedures in SAS/OR software with application to the ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operators of decision-making. OWA was originally introduced by Yager (1988) has gained much interest among researchers, hence many applications in the areas of decision making, expert systems, data mining, approximate reasoning, fuzzy system and control have bee...
