Abstract
In a linguistic framework, several group decision making processes by direct approach are presented. These processes are designed using the linguistic ordered weighted averaging (LOWA) operator. To do so, first a study is made of the properties and the axiomatic of LOWA operator, showing the rationality of its aggregation way. And secondly, we present the use of LOWA operator to solve group decision making problems from individual linguistic preference relations. Keywords: Group decision making, linguistic preference relation, fuzzy linguistic quantifier, OWA operators. 1 Introduction Decision making is a usual task in human activities. It consists of finding the best option from a feasible set. Many decision making processes, in the real world, take place in an environment in which the goals, contraints and consequences of possible actions are not precisely known. In these cases, probability theory has always allowed to deal quantitatively with that lack of precision. However, when ...
