Abstract

The LOBFI Research Group was founded many years ago by Professor Gaspar Mayor at the beginning of his research career at the University of the Balearic Islands. Since then, he has been the leader of the group and has devoted many of his efforts to getting LOBFI to a prestigious and recognized group in the fuzzy community. This chapter has been written by all the current members of the LOBFI group in gratitude to him, and it is devoted to recall his main scientific achievements in the field of fuzzy sets theory and aggregation fusion.
