Abstract

Aggregation operators are broadly used in decision making problems. These operators are often characterized by indicators. Numerous of these aggregation operators may be represented by means of the Choquet integral. In this article four different indicators usually associated to the ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operator are extended to the Choquet integral. In particular, we propose the extensions of the degree of balance, the divergence, the variance indicator and Rényi entropies. Indicators for the weighted ordered weighted averaging (WOWA) operator are derived to illustrate the application of results. Finally, an example is provided to show main contributions.
