Abstract

In this paper the concept of an ordered weighted quasi-average (Quasi-OWA or QOWA) operator is extended from [0,1] to any complete lattice endowed with a t-norm and a t-conorm. In the case of a complete distributive lattice it is shown to agree with some OWA operator and consequently with a particular case of the discrete Sugeno integral. As an application, we show several ways of aggregating either restricted equivalence functions or closed intervals by using QOWA operators.
