The Fuzzy Generalized OWA Operator and Its Application in Strategic Decision Making
We present the fuzzy generalized ordered weighted averaging (FGOWA) operator. It is an extension of the GOWA operator for uncertain situations where the available information is given in the form of fuzzy numbers. This generalization includes a wide range of mean operators such as the fuzzy average (FA), the fuzzy OWA (FOWA), and the fuzzy generalized mean (FGM). We also develop a further generalization by using quasi-arithmetic means that we call the quasi-FOWA operator. The article ends with an illustrative example where we apply the new approach in the selection of strategies.
