Approximate Reasoning with Fuzzy Booleans
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper introduces, in analogy to the concept of fuzzy numbers, the concept of fuzzy booleans, and examines approximate reasoning with the compositional rule of inference using fuzzy booleans. It is shown that each set of fuzzy rules is equivalent to a set of fuzzy rules with singleton crisp antecedents; in case of fuzzy booleans this set contains only two rules. It is shown that Zadeh's extension principle is equivalent to the compositional rule of inference using a complete set of fuzzy rules with singleton crisp antecedents. The results are applied to describe the use of approximate reasoning with fuzzy booleans to object-oriented design methods .

The Compositional Rule of Inference and Zadeh's Extension Principle for Non-normal Fuzzy Sets
Defining the standard Boolean operations on fuzzy Booleans with the compositional rule of inference (CRI) or Zadeh's extension principle gives counter-intuitive results. We introduce and motivate a slight adaptation of the CRI, which only effects the results for non-normal fuzzy sets. It is shown that the adapted CRI gives the expected results for the standard Boolean operations on fuzzy Boolea...
متن کاملPROPERTY ANALYSIS OF TRIPLE IMPLICATION METHOD FOR APPROXIMATE REASONING ON ATANASSOVS INTUITIONISTIC FUZZY SETS
Firstly, two kinds of natural distances between intuitionistic fuzzy sets are generated by the classical natural distance between fuzzy sets under a unified framework of residual intuitionistic implication operators. Secondly, the continuity and approximation property of a method for solving intuitionistic fuzzy reasoning are defined. It is proved that the triple implication method for intuitio...
متن کاملFuzzy Measure Based Approximate Reasoning with Distance-based Operators
In the paper a distance based operators based approximate reasoning method is represented, applying fuzzy measure. Distance based operators satisfy most of properties as generally defined parametrical operators. Based on this the possible relationship with the integrals based on fuzzy measures is introduced. It can be shown, that the reason used for fuzzy integral introduction is similar to the...
متن کاملFuzzy Relevant Logic: What Is It and Why Study It?
For any correct argument in scientific reasoning as well as our everyday reasoning, the premises of the argument must be in some way relevant to the conclusion of that argument, and vice versa. On the other hand, in scientific reasoning as well as our everyday reasoning, many arguments may be correct to some degree, and therefore, a reasoning consisting of such fuzzy arguments is approximate. A...
متن کاملApproximative Reasoning and Fuzzy Queries with Linguistic Quantification in Prolog Databases
– Approximate reasoning and fuzzy queries are efficient methods in retrieving information from large databases when precise attributes are unknown or the model itself is vague. We explore such types of reasoning based on the notions of the possibility theory. We suggest an approach towards a Prolog implementation of such queries which takes into account fuzzy linguistic quantification, aggregat...
