Preassociative Aggregation Functions

چکیده
We investigate the associativity property for varying-arity aggregation functions and introduce the more general property of preassociativity, a natural extension of associativity. We discuss this new property and describe certain classes of preassociative functions.

A Characterization of Barycentrically Preassociative Functions
We provide a characterization of the variadic functions which are barycentrically preassociative as compositions of length-preserving associative string functions with one-to-one unary maps. We also discuss some consequences of this characterization.
متن کاملBarycentrically Associative and Preassociative Functions
We investigate the barycentric associativity property for functions with indefinite arities and discuss the more general property of barycentric preassociativity, a generalization of barycentric associativity which does not involve any composition of functions. We also provide a generalization of Kolmogoroff-Nagumo’s characterization of the quasi-arithmetic mean functions to barycentrically pre...

We investigate the associativity property for functions of multiple arities and introduce and discuss the more general property of preassociativity, a generalization of associativity which does not involve any composition of functions.
متن کاملSUPER- AND SUB-ADDITIVE ENVELOPES OF AGGREGATION FUNCTIONS: INTERPLAY BETWEEN LOCAL AND GLOBAL PROPERTIES, AND APPROXIMATION
Super- and sub-additive transformations of aggregation functions have been recently introduced by Greco, Mesiar, Rindone and v{S}ipeky [The superadditive and the subadditive transformations of integrals and aggregation functions, {it Fuzzy Sets and Systems} {bf 291} (2016), 40--53]. In this article we give a survey of the recent development regarding the existence of aggregation functions with ...
متن کاملON THE FUZZY SET THEORY AND AGGREGATION FUNCTIONS: HISTORY AND SOME RECENT ADVANCES
Several fuzzy connectives, including those proposed by Lotfi Zadeh, can be seen as linear extensions of the Boolean connectives from the scale ${0,1}$ into the scale $[0,1]$. We discuss these extensions, in particular, we focus on the dualities arising from the Boolean dualities. These dualities allow to transfer the results from some particular class of extended Boolean functions, e.g., from c...
