Abstract

Entropy on orders of magnitude qualitative spaces and, consequently, the opportunity to measure the gain or loss of information when working with qualitative descriptions. The results obtained are significant in terms of situations which arise naturally in many real applications when dealing with different levels of precision. The entropy allows measuring the consensus of expert opinion by use of a distance, and building a method that enables ambiguous values to be included in analysis and summarizing information.
