Variances with Bonferroni means and ordered weighted averages

The variance is a statistical measure frequently used for analysis of dispersion in the data. This paper presents new types of variances that use Bonferroni means and ordered weighted averages in the aggregation process of the variance. The main advantage of this approach is that we can underestimate or overestimate the variance according to the attitudinal character of the decision-maker. The work considers several particular cases including...
