In this paper we consider an aggregation model f: X1 x ... x Xn --> Y for
arbitrary sets X1, ..., Xn and a finite distributive lattice Y, factorizable as
f(x1, ..., xn) = p(u1(x1), ..., un(xn)), where p is an n-variable lattice
polynomial function over Y, and each uk is a map from Xk to Y. The resulting
functions are referred to as pseudo-polynomial functions. We present an
axiomatization for this class of pseudo-polynomial functions which differs from
the previous ones both in flavour and nature, and develop general tools which
are then used to obtain all possible such factorizations of a given
pseudo-polynomial function.Comment: 16 pages, 2 figure
