An overview of operators for aggregating information

In this work, we first make a survey of the existing main aggregation operators and then propose some new aggregation operators such as the induced ordered weighted geometric averaging (IOWGA) operator, generalized induced ordered weighted averaging (GIOWA) operator, hybrid weighted averaging (HWA) operator, etc., and study their desirable properties. Finally, we briefly classify all of these aggregation operators. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
