FUZZIFICATION OF CHOQUET INTEGRAL AND ITS APPLICATION IN MULTIPLE CRITERIA DECISION MAKING
A common approach in the multiple criteria decision making is to obtain the overall evaluation by aggregating the partial evaluations. For this, a member of a large family of aggregation operators is used. Many of these operators commonly employed in decision making (weighted average, ordered weighted average, minimum. maximum, ... ) can be used only when criteria are independent. On the other hand, the Choquet integral, a generalization of the aforementioned operators, can be used even when some interactions between criteria occur. We present a fuzzified Choquet integral capable of dealing not only with fuzzy partial evaluations (first level fuzzification), but also with fuzzy weights (second level fuzzification). We also provide an effective way to evaluate the fully fuzzified integral, which allows its straightforward application to decision making problems with inherent uncertainty.
