The ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operator is one of the most used techniques in operator’s aggregation procedure. This paper proposes a new assignment algorithm by using OWA and different extensions it Branch-and-bound algorithm. process based on use average distance (OWAD) induced OWAD (IOWAD). We present as with (BBAOWAD) IOWAD (BBAIOWAD). main advantage this approach that we can obtain m...

A combination of geographic information system (GIS) and spatial multicriteria decision making (MCDA) in mine water inrush risk evaluation is widely used, but the randomness process index weight determination risk-coping attitude makers are not considered process. Therefore, this paper proposes a probability-based roof method (GIS-MCDA) by combining Monte Carlo analytic hierarchy (MAHP) ordered...

The objective of this work is to present a triangular interval type-2 (TIT2) intuitionistic fuzzy sets and their corresponding aggregation operators, namely, TIT2 intuitionistic fuzzy weighted averaging, TIT2 intuitionistic fuzzy ordered weighted averaging and TIT2 intuitionistic fuzzy hybrid averaging based on Frank norm operation laws. Furthermore, based on these operators, an approach to mul...

In [28] Yager and Filev introduced the Induced Ordered Weighted Averaging (IOWA) operator. In this paper, we provide some IOWA operators to aggregate fuzzy preference relations in group decision-making (GDM) problems. These IOWA operators when guided by fuzzy linguistic quantifiers allow the introduction of some semantics or meaning in the aggregation, and therefore allow for a better control o...

Many multiple attribute group decision making (MAGDM) problems with linguistic information involve uncertainties, which significantly increase the complexity and difficulty in decision analysis. In order to solve such problems, we require appropriate aggregation operators that are capable of dealing with uncertain linguistic information. In this paper, firstly, the uncertain two-tuple linguisti...

We present the induced intuitionistic fuzzy ordered weighted averaging-weighted average (I-IFOWAWA) operator. It is a new aggregation operator that uses the intuitionistic fuzzy weighted average (IFWA) and the induced intuitionistic fuzzy ordered weighted averaging (I-IFOWA) operator in the same formulation. We study some of its main properties and we have seen that it has a lot of particular c...

We develop some new cases of the induced continuous ordered weighted averaging (ICOWA) operator and study their desirable properties, which are very suitable to deal with group decision making (GDM) with interval fuzzy preference relations. First, we present the consensus indicator ICOWA (CI-ICOWA) operator which uses the consensus indicator of the interval fuzzy preference as the order inducin...

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 scientist...

This paper addresses the blog distillation problem, that is, given a user query find the blogs that are most related to the query topic. We model each post as evidence of the relevance of a blog to the query, and use aggregation methods like Ordered Weighted Averaging (OWA) operators to combine the evidence. We show that using only highly relevant evidence (posts) for each blog can result in an...

Aggregation functions are mathematical operators that merge given data in order to obtain a global value that preserves the information given by the data as much as possible. In most practical applications, this value is expected to be between the infimum and the supremum of the given data, which is guaranteed only when the aggregation functions are idempotent. Ordered weighted averaging (OWA) ...
