# wowa
This package calculates weighted OWA functions and extending bivariate means" Functions are:
- py_WAM: WOWATree callback function if sorting is needed in general 
- py_OWA: WOWATree callback function if no sorting is needed when used in the tree
- WOWATree: symmetric base aggregator 
- WAn: processes the tree
- weightedOWAQuantifierBuild: calculates spline knots and coefficients for later use in weightedOWAQuantifier
- weightedOWAQuantifier: Calculates the value of the WOWA, with quantifier function obtained in weightedOWAQuantifierBuild
- ImplicitWOWA: Calculates implicit Weighted OWA function
- WAM: weighted arithmetic mean function
- OWA: ordered weighted averaging function
