Clustering of vaguely defined objects

Libor Žák (2003)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

This paper is concerned with the clustering of objects whose properties cannot be described by exact data. These can only be described by fuzzy sets or by linguistic values of previously defined linguistic variables. To cluster these objects we use a generalization of classic clustering methods in which instead of similarity (dissimilarity) of objects, used fuzzy similarity (fuzzy dissimilarity) to define the clustering of fuzzy objects.

Information in vague data sources

Milan Mareš, Radko Mesiar (2013)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

This paper deals with the concept of the “size“ or “extent“ of the information in the sense of measuring the improvement of our knowledge after obtaining a message. Standard approaches are based on the probabilistic parameters of the considered information source. Here we deal with situations when the unknown probabilities are subjectively or vaguely estimated. For the considered fuzzy quantities valued probabilities we introduce and discuss information theoretical concepts. ...

The strongest t-norm for fuzzy metric spaces

Dong Qiu, Weiquan Zhang (2013)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

In this paper, we prove that for a given positive continuous t-norm there is a fuzzy metric space in the sense of George and Veeramani, for which the given t-norm is the strongest one. For the opposite problem, we obtain that there is a fuzzy metric space for which there is no strongest t-norm. As an application of the main results, it is shown that there are infinite non-isometric fuzzy metrics on an infinite set.
