Arity-Monotonic Extended Aggregation Operators
نویسندگان
چکیده
A class of extended aggregation operators, called impact functions, is proposed and their basic properties are examined. Some important classes of functions like generalized ordered weighted averaging (OWA) and ordered weighted maximum (OWMax) operators are considered. The general idea is illustrated by the Producer Assessment Problem which includes the scientometric problem of rating scientists basing on the number of citations received by their publications. An interesting characterization of the well known h-index is given.

Possibilistic analysis of arity-monotonic aggregation operators and its relation to bibliometric impact assessment of individuals
A class of arity-monotonic aggregation operators, called impact functions, is proposed. This family of operators forms a theoretical framework for the so-called Producer Assessment Problem, which includes the scientometric task of fair and objective assessment of scientists using the number of citations received by their publications. The impact function output values are analyzed under right-c...
متن کاملOM3: Ordered maxitive, minitive, and modular aggregation operators - Axiomatic and probabilistic properties in an arity-monotonic setting
The recently-introduced OM3 aggregation operators fulfill three appealing properties: they are simultaneously minitive, maxitive, and modular. Among the instances of OM3 operators we find e.g. OWMax and OWMin operators, the famous Hirsch h-index and all its natural generalizations. In this paper the basic axiomatic and probabilistic properties of extended, i.e. in an arity-dependent setting, OM...

متن کاملAggregation Functions. Part I: Means
The two-parts state-of-art overview of aggregation theory summarizes the essential information concerning aggregation issues. Overview of aggregation properties is given, including the basic classification of aggregation functions. In this first part, the stress is put on means, i.e., averaging aggregation functions, both with fixed arity (n-ary means) and with open arity (extended means).
