Abstract
This paper introduces the geometric consensus function (GCF) family, a set of combination functions for triangular and trapezoidal fuzzy set s. We give some examples of this family (among them two defined as cou nterparts of two previously defined in the literature). We observe in this case that a GCF returns a membership function easier to represent (with less non-derivable points). Two of the examples introduced are easy to compute and satisfy the independence of irrelevant alternative condition.
