In this paper, we examine four classes of procedures of aggregation of local valued relations, with weights. These procedures are based on the use of a valued implication or coimplication. We highlight the existence of a hierarchy among those procedures, and show that some of them preserve the transitivity of local relations. These results are applied for the definition of a measure of similarity between fuzzy sets. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved. [References: 13]
