Nonparametric recursive aggregation process

Elena Tsiporkova, Veselka Boeva (2004)

Kybernetika

In this work we introduce a nonparametric recursive aggregation process called Multilayer Aggregation (MLA). The name refers to the fact that at each step the results from the previous one are aggregated and thus, before the final result is derived, the initial values are subjected to several layers of aggregation. Most of the conventional aggregation operators, as for instance weighted mean, combine numerical values according to a vector of weights (parameters). Alternatively, the MLA operators...

On a linear functional equation with a mean-type mapping having no fixed points

Katarzyna Sajbura (2005)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

Our aim is to study continuous solutions φ of the classical linear iterative equation φ(f(x,y)) = g(x,y)φ(x,y) + h(x,y), where the given function f is defined as a pair of means. We are interested in the case when f has no fixed points. In turns out that in such a case continuous solutions of (1) depend on an arbitrary function.

On a new class of distances between fuzzy numbers.

Carlo Bertoluzza, Norberto Corral, Antonia Salas (1995)

Mathware and Soft Computing

In the course of the studies on fuzzy regression analysis, we encountered the problem of introducing a distance between fuzzy numbers, which replaces the classical (x - y)2 on the real line. Our proposal is to compute such a function as a suitable weighted mean of the distances between the α-cuts of the fuzzy numbers. The main difficulty is concerned with the definition of the distance between intervals, since the current definitions present some disadvantages which are undesirable in our context....

On a problem concerning quasianalytic local rings

Hassan Sfouli (2014)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Let (ₙ)ₙ be a quasianalytic differentiable system. Let m ∈ ℕ. We consider the following problem: let f m and f̂ be its Taylor series at 0 m . Split the set m of exponents into two disjoint subsets A and B, m = A B , and decompose the formal series f̂ into the sum of two formal series G and H, supported by A and B, respectively. Do there exist g , h m with Taylor series at zero G and H, respectively? The main result of this paper is the following: if we have a positive answer to the above problem for some m ≥ 2, then...
