Characterizations of Sub-Semihypergroups by Various Triangular Norms

Generated triangular norms

Archimedean components of triangular norms

The Archimedean components of triangular norms (which turn the closed unit interval into an abelian, totally ordered semigroup with neutral element 1) are studied, in particular their extension to triangular norms, and some construction methods for Archimedean components are given. The triangular norms which are uniquely determined by their Archimedean components are characterized. Using ordina...

Pinchings and Norms of Scaled Triangular Matrices 1 Pinchings and Norms of Scaled Triangular Matrices

Suppose U is an upper-triangular matrix, and D a nonsingular diagonal matrix whose diagonal entries appear in nondescending order of magnitude down the diagonal. It is proved that kD UDk kUk for any matrix norm that is reduced by a pinching. In addition to known examples { weakly unitarily invariant norms { we show that any matrix norm de ned by kAk def = max x 6=0; y 6=0 Re (x Ay) (x) (y) ; wh...

k-Lipschitz strict triangular norms

This paper deals with Lipschitzian t-norms. A partial answer to an open problem of Alsina, Frank and Schweizer is given with regard to strict t-norms with smooth additive generators. A new notion of local Lipschitzianity for arbitrary tnorms is introduced. Some remarkable examples of non-Lipschitzian continuous triangular norms are provided.

Classifier Fusion Using Triangular Norms

This paper describes a method for fusing a collection of classifiers where the fusion can compensate for some positive correlation among the classifiers. Specifically, it does not require the assumption of evidential independence of the classifiers to be fused (such as Dempster Shafer’s fusion rule). The proposed method is associative, which allows fusing three or more classifiers irrespective ...
