In this paper we introduce the semi-uninorm based ordered weighted averaging (SUOWA) operators, a new class of aggregation functions that, as WOWA operators, simultaneously generalize weighted means and OWA operators. To do this we take into account that weighted means and OWA operators are particular cases of Choquet integral. So, SUOWA operators are Choquet integral-based operators where thei...

Commonly used GIS combination operators such as Boolean conjunction/disjunction and weighted linear combination can be generalized to the ordered weighted averaging (OWA) family of operators. This multicriteria evaluation method allows decision-makers to define a decision strategy on a continuum between pessimistic and optimistic strategies. Recently, OWA has been introduced to GIS-based decisi...

The ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operator and its associated weight vectors have been both theoretically practically verified to be powerful effective in modeling the optimism/pessimism preference of decision makers. When several different OWA are offered, it is necessary develop certain techniques aggregate them into one vector. This study firstly details motivating examples show necessity...

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...

R. Yager [6] introduced a new aggregation technique based on the ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operators. In this article we illustrate the applicability of OWA operators to a doctoral student selection problem at the Graduate School of Turku Centre for Computer Science.

We investigate the multiple attribute group decision making (MAGDM) problems in which the attribute values take the form of 2-tuple linguistic information. Motivated by the ideal of dependent aggregation [Xu, Z. S. (2006). Dependent OWA operators. Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence, 3885, 172–178], in this paper, we develop some dependent 2-tuple linguistic aggregation operators: the depe...

This paper establishes the network marketing performance evaluation index system followed the principles of "scientific, objective, systematic, feasibility and stability". Then use interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets OWA (Ordered Weighted Averaging) operator to calculate the evaluation value. The reason of this paper use interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets is some index value is not...

The efficient use of the Ordered Weighted Averaging (OWA) operator in decision making problems depends on the choice of the order weights. Using fuzzy quantifiers is one of the most popular methods to obtain them. In this study, a new method will be introduced for determining the order weights from the quantifiers, which is especially useful in the case of unimodal quantifiers. The new method i...
