Abstract

We deal with an extension of ordered weighted averaging (OWA, for short) operators to the set of all normal convex fuzzy sets in [0, 1]. The main obstacle to achieve this goal is the non-existence of a linear order for fuzzy sets. Three ways of dealing with the lack of a linear order on some set and defining OWA operators on the set appeared in the recent literature. We adapt the three approaches for the set of all normal convex fuzzy sets in [0, 1] and study their properties. It is shown that each of the three approaches leads to operator with desired algebraic properties, and two of them are also linear.
