Abstract
A notion of a robust aggregation procedure is introduced and studied in connection with invariance properties of aggregation procedures. We prove that a robust aggregation procedure is invariant if measurements are in the ordinal scale. We also show that any robust mean on the set of all fuzzy sets on a finite universe is a pointwise order statistic.
