Yager considered the problem of maximizing an OWA aggregation of a group of variables that are interrelated and constrained by a collection of linear inequalities and he showed how this problem can be modelled as a mixed integer linear programming problem. In this short communication we show a...

In this paper we will introduce a measure of interactivity between marginal distributions of a joint possibility distribution as the expected value of the interactivity relation between the -level sets of its marginal distributions

The mean-variance methodology for the portfolio selection problem, originally proposed by Markowitz, has been one of the most important research fields in modern finance. In this paper we will assume that (i) each investor can assign a welfare, or utility, score to competing investment...

One important issue in the theory of Ordered Weighted Averaging (OWA) operators is the determination of the associated weights. One of the first approaches, suggested by O'Hagan, determines a special class of OWA operators having maximal entropy of the OWA weights for a given level of ;...

Dubois and Prade defined an interval-valued expectation of fuzzy numbers, viewing them as consonant random sets. Carlsson and Fuller defined an interval-valued mean value of fuzzy numbers, viewing them as possibility distributions. In this paper we shall introduce the notation of weighted...
