Wasserstein distance for OWA operators

Published: 15 May 2024 Publication History

Abstract

We suggest a distance measure for OWA operators. First we associate an OWA operator with a unique regular increasing monotone quantifier and then define the distance between two OWA operators as the Wasserstein-1 distance between their associated quantifiers.
