Using Fuzzy Numbers in Heavy Aggregation Operators
Authors/Creators
Description
We consider different types of aggregation operators
such as the heavy ordered weighted averaging (HOWA) operator and
the fuzzy ordered weighted averaging (FOWA) operator. We
introduce a new extension of the OWA operator called the fuzzy
heavy ordered weighted averaging (FHOWA) operator. The main
characteristic of this aggregation operator is that it deals with
uncertain information represented in the form of fuzzy numbers (FN)
in the HOWA operator. We develop the basic concepts of this
operator and study some of its properties. We also develop a wide
range of families of FHOWA operators such as the fuzzy push up
allocation, the fuzzy push down allocation, the fuzzy median
allocation and the fuzzy uniform allocation.
