Abstract
An algorithmic approach for handling linguistic values defined in the same linguistic variable is proposed. It can explicitly capture the differences of individuals’ subjectivity regarding linguistic values. The proposed approach can be employed as a useful tool for discovering hidden relationship among linguistic values. Thus, it provides a basis for improving the precision of knowledge acquisition in handling linguistic values. We apply the proposed approach to a collective linguistic assessment among multiple experts.
