Abstract

The weighted relevance aggregation operator is a modified, flexible version of the general power mean. In this paper we discuss the sensitivity of this operator, namely we give bounds on the change of the output in terms of vector norms of the change of the input variables. We apply these results to characterize to sensitivity of fuzzy signatures which are equipped with these operators in its nodes.
