Peer-assessment is a way to include evaluation as a part of the learning process and simultaneously to cut teacher load in grading of assignments. eLearning systems can be used to automate peer-assessment to a large extent. Peer-assessment benefits from multiplepeer-assessment as it is likely to even-out outliers. Linguistic scorecards can be used to simplify assessment. The linguistic scales c...

This paper investigates the question of the interpretability of fuzzy linguistic summaries, both at the sentence level and at the summary level, seen as a set of sentences. The individual sentence interpretability is examined as depending both on its representativity measured by a quality degree and on its linguistic expression. Different properties at the summary level are also discussed, name...

In this paper, we investigate the multiple attribute decision making (MADM) problem based on the arithmetic and geometric aggregation operators with hesitant fuzzy linguistic information. Then, motivated by the idea of traditional arithmetic operation, we have developed some aggregation operators for aggregating hesitant fuzzy linguistic information: hesitant fuzzy linguistic weighted average (...
