The current paper provides a dialectical interpretation of the argumentation-based judgment aggregation operators of Caminada and Pigozzi. In particular, we define discussion-based proof procedures for the foundational concepts of down-admissible and up-complete. We then show how these proof procedures can be used as the basis of dialectical proof procedures for the sceptical, credulous and sup...

A summary on the symbolic basic arithmetic operators and aggregation operators of linguistic information developed by the authors is presented. In particular, label addition, label diierence, product of a label by a positive real number, and convex combination of labels are shown as the symbolic basic arithmetic operators, and two aggregation operators of linguistic information built using thos...

The Decision Support System (DSS) contains more than one antecedent and the degrees of strength of the antecedents need to be combined to determine the overall strength of the rule consequent. The membership values of the linguistic variables in Fuzzy have to be combined using an aggregation operator. But it is not feasible to predefine the form of aggregation operators in decision-making. Inst...

A crucial issue related to the Atanassov’s intuitionistic fuzzy operators is how to determine their weights. Various weighted methods have been proposed last decades, but it seems that there is no investigation on the monotonous and proportioninvariant properties, which is decisive for aggregation and comparison of Atanassov’s intuitionistic fuzzy values in group decision making. In this paper,...

Two induced aggregation operators with novelly designed TOPSIS order-inducing variables are proposed: Induced Interval-valued Intuitionistic Fuzzy Hybrid Averaging I-IIFHA operator and Induced Interval-valued Intuitionistic Fuzzy Hybrid Geometric I-IIFHG operator. The merit of two aggregation operators is that they can consider additional preference information of decision maker’s attitudinal c...

In the propositional setting, a well-studied family of merging operators are distance-based ones: the models of the merged base are the closest interpretations to the given profile. Closeness is, in this context, measured as a number resulting from the aggregation of the distances to each base of the profile. In this work we define a new familly of propositional merging operators, close to such...

We study the problem of aggregation of Dung’s abstract argumentation frameworks. Some operators for this aggregation have been proposed, as well as some rationality properties for this process. In this work we study the existing operators and new ones that we propose in light of the proposed properties, highlighting the fact that existing operators do not satisfy a lot of these properties. The ...

Decision support systems are mainly based on multidimensional modeling. Using On-Line Analytical Processing (OLAP) tools, decision makers navigate through and analyze multidimensional data. Typically, users need to analyze data at different aggregation levels, using OLAP operators such as roll-up and drill-down. Roll-up operators decrease the details of the measure, aggregating it along the dim...

In this paper we introduce a new fuzzy decision making model that unifies induced aggregation operators and distance measures in the same formulation. We develop the fuzzy induced generalized ordered weighted averaging distance (FIGOWAD) operator. The main advantage of this operator is that it provides a parameterized family of aggregation operators between the minimum and the maximum and a wid...

In this paper, motivated by the ideas of dependent weighted aggregation operators, we develop some new hesitant fuzzy dependent weighted aggregation operators to aggregate the input arguments taking the form of hesitant fuzzy numbers rather than exact numbers, or intervals. In fact, we propose three hesitant fuzzy dependent weighted averaging(HFDWA) operators, and three hesitant fuzzy dependent...
