Abstract

The family of Ordered Weighted Averaging (OWA) operators, as introduced by Yager, appears to be very useful in multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM). In this paper, we extend a family of parameterized OWA operators to fuzzy MCDM based on vague set theory, where the characteristics of the alternatives are presented by vague sets. These families are specified by a few parameters to aggregate vague values instead of the intersection and union operators proposed by Chen. The proposed method provides a "soft" and expansive way to help the decision maker to make his decisions. Examples are shown to illustrate the procedure of the proposed method at the end of this paper.
