On the Behavior of WOWA Operators
Conference paper
Abstract
In this paper we analyze the behavior of WOWA operators, a class of functions that simultaneously generalize weighted means and OWA operators. Moreover, we introduce functions that also generalize both operators and characterize those satisfying a condition imposed to maintain the relationship among the weights.
