Abstract
Ordered weighted average (OWA) operators are commonly used to aggregate information in multiple situations, such as decision making problems or image processing tasks.The great variety of weights that can be chosen to determinate an OWA operator provides a broad family of aggregating functions, which obviously give different results in the aggregation of the same set of data.In this paper, some possible classifications of OWA operators are suggested when they are defined on m-dimensional intervals taking values on a complete lattice satisfying certain local conditions. A first classification is obtained by means of a quantitative orness measure that gives the proximity of each OWA to the OR operator. In the case in which the lattice is finite, another classification is obtained by means of a qualitative orness measure. In the present paper, several theoretical results are obtained in order to perform this qualitative value for each OWA operator.
