The application of fuzzy integrals in multicriteria decision making. (English) Zbl 0916.90164

Summary: This paper presents a synthesis on the application of fuzzy integrals as an innovative tool for criteria aggregation in decision problems. The main point is that fuzzy integrals are able to model interaction between criteria in a flexible way. The methodology has been elaborated mainly in Japan, and has been applied there successfully in various fields such as design, reliability, evaluation of goods, etc. It seems however that this technique is still very little known in Europe. It is one of the aims of this review to disseminate this emerging technology in many industrial fields.
