Summary: Linguistic aggregation operators are a powerful tool to aggregate linguistic information, which have been studied and applied in a wide variety of areas, including engineering, decision making, artificial intelligence, data mining, and soft computing. In this chapter, we provide a comprehensive survey of the existing main linguistic aggregation operators, and briefly discuss their characteristics and applications. Finally, we roughly classify all these linguistic aggregation operators and conclude with a discussion of some interesting further research directions.
