WMax, WMin, OWMax, and OWMin Operators
Description
Computes the (Ordered) Weighted Maximum/Minimum.
Usage
owmax(x, w = rep(Inf, length(x)))
owmin(x, w = rep(-Inf, length(x)))
wmax(x, w = rep(Inf, length(x)))
wmin(x, w = rep(-Inf, length(x)))
Arguments
x |
numeric vector to be aggregated |
w |
numeric vector of the same length as |
Details
The OWMax operator is given by
\mathsf{OWMax}_\mathtt{w}(\mathtt{x})=\bigvee_{i=1}^{n} w_{i}\wedge x_{(i)}
where x_{(i)}
denotes the i
-th smallest
value in x
.
The OWMin operator is given by
\mathsf{OWMin}_\mathtt{w}(\mathtt{x})=\bigwedge_{i=1}^{n} w_{i}\vee x_{(i)}
The WMax operator is given by
\mathsf{WMax}_\mathtt{w}(\mathtt{x})=\bigvee_{i=1}^{n} w_{i}\wedge x_{i}
The WMin operator is given by
\mathsf{WMin}_\mathtt{w}(\mathtt{x})=\bigwedge_{i=1}^{n} w_{i}\vee x_{i}
OWMax
and WMax
by default return the greatest value in x
and OWMin
and WMin
- the smallest value in x
.
Classically, it is assumed that if we aggregate
vectors with elements in [a,b]
, then
the largest weight for OWMax should be equal to b
and the smallest for OWMin should be equal to a
.
There is a strong connection between the OWMax/OWMin operators and the Sugeno integrals w.r.t. some monotone measures. Additionally, it may be shown that the OWMax and OWMin classes are equivalent.
Moreover, index_h
for integer data
is a particular OWMax operator.
Value
These functions return a single numeric value.
