Fuzzy querying: issues and perspectives

Janusz Kacprzyk, Gabriella Pasi, Peter Vojtáš, Sławomir Zadrożny (2000)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

The term query is widely used in the database as well as information retrieval communities. Basically, a query against a collection of information items (to be called later, for brevity, an information source) provides a formal description of the items of interest to the user posing this query. A source of information is meant here very generally. It may take the form of an archive of multimedia or textual documents, a database, or a knowledge base. In the three previous examples the...

Learning imprecise semantic concepts from image databases.

Daniel Sánchez, Jesús Chamorro-Martínez (2002)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Similarity:

In this paper we introduce a model to represent high-level semantic concepts that can be perceived in images. The concepts are learned and represented by means of a set of association rules that relate the presence of perceptual features to the fulfillment of a concept for a set of images. Since both the set of images where a perceptual feature appears and the set of images fulfilling a given concept are fuzzy, we use in fact fuzzy association rules for the learning model. The concepts...

An approach to fuzzy temporal reasoning in medicine.

R. Marín, S. Barro, F. Palacios, R. Ruiz, F. Martín (1994)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Similarity:

In this work we propose an approach for the application of a fuzzy temporal constraint model to intelligent patient monitoring tasks. After analyzing the requirements of the domain, we describe the approach that was followed in order to represent temporal information and solve queries on temporal relations. These processes require the cooperation of a temporal specialist with the domain reasoning mechanisms. The integration solution presented here corresponds to a stage of the implementation...

A multi-granular linguistic model to evaluate the suitability of installing an ERP system.

Pedro José Sánchez, Luis G. Pérez, Francisco Mata, Antonio Gabriel López-Herrera (2005)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Similarity:

The use of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) has shown clearly useful and economically profitable in most very large organizations which manage a great deal of data in their information systems. Nevertheless, the decision of installing an ERP system is not easy and it depends on the size, future profits and other features of the companies. The assessments of the parameters (features, aspects) used to evaluate the suitability of the ERP may be vague and imprecise because they are usually...

Modeling a fuzzy coprocessor and its programming language.

Ricardo García Rosa, Teresa de Pedro Lucio (1998)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Similarity:

A computational model for a fuzzy coprocessor (types and structures of data and the set of instructions) is proposed. The coprocessor will be charged only of the typical operations of fuzzy logic as calculating membership degrees, unions and intersections of fuzzy sets, fuzzy inferences, defuzzifications and so on. One main novelty is that the programming language admits fuzzy rules conditions in which there would be linguistic edges preceding the predicates and the coprocessor is designed...

Client-server arquitecture for fuzzy relational databases.

Juan Miguel Medina, Olga Pons, M. Amparo Vila, Juan Carlos Cubero (1996)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Similarity:

This paper shows a FRDBMS architecture whose main characteristics are: 1) it is implemented entirely on classical RDBMS just using the resources provided by them, 2) it preserves all the operations and qualities of the host RDBMS and gives them more power adding new capabilities to deal with fuzzy information and 3) it provides a frame to develop applications which exploit fuzzy information.
