An architecture for making judgments using computing with words

Jerry Mendel (2002)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

Our thesis is that computing with words needs to account for the uncertainties associated with the meanings of words, and that these uncertainties require using type-2 fuzzy sets. Doing this leads to a proposed architecture for making it judgments by means of computing with words, i.e., to a perceptual computer-the Per-C. The Per-C includes an encoder, a type-2 rule-based fuzzy logic system, and a decoder. It lets all human-computer interactions be performed using words. In this paper,...

On granular derivatives and the solution of a granular initial value problem

Ildar Batyrshin (2002)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

Perceptions about function changes are represented by rules like “If X is SMALL then Y is QUICKLY INCREASING.” The consequent part of a rule describes a granule of directions of the function change when X is increasing on the fuzzy interval given in the antecedent part of the rule. Each rule defines a granular differential and a rule base defines a granular derivative. A reconstruction of a fuzzy function given by the granular derivative and the initial value given by the rule is similar...

Interpretability of linguistic variables: a formal account

Ulrich Bodenhofer, Peter Bauer (2005)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

This contribution is concerned with the interpretability of fuzzy rule-based systems. While this property is widely considered to be a crucial one in fuzzy rule-based modeling, a more detailed formal investigation of what “interpretability” actually means is not available. So far, interpretability has most often been associated with rather heuristic assumptions about shape and mutual overlapping of fuzzy membership functions. In this paper, we attempt to approach this problem from a...

Method of least squares applied to the generalized modus ponens with interval-valued fuzzy sets.

Eduard Agustench, Humberto Bustince, Victoria Mohedano (1999)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Similarity:

Firstly we present a geometric interpretation of interval-valued fuzzy sets. Secondly, we apply the method of least squares to the fuzzy inference rules when working with these sets. We begin approximating the lower and upper extremes of the membership intervals to axb type functions by means of the method of least squares. Then we analyze a technique for evaluating the conclusion of the generalized modus ponens and we verify the fulfillment of Fukami and alumni axioms [9].

On the notion of Fuzzy Set.

Nando Prati (1992)

Stochastica

Similarity:

Many discussions have been made on the problem of (i) What are Fuzzy Sets? since the origin of the theory. Due to the structure of Fuzzy Sets the first impression that many people have is that Fuzzy Sets are the distribution of a probability. Recent developments of many theories of uncertainty measures (belief functions, possibility and fuzzy measures, capacities) can make also think that a Fuzzy Set is the distribution of an uncertainty measure. Other problems...
