Scientific Theories and the Computational Theory of Perceptions - A Structuralist View Including Fuzzy Sets
نویسنده
چکیده
Fuzzy Logic, Computing with words, and the Computational Theory of Preceptions build a stack of methodologies to help bridge the gap between systems and phenomena in reality and scientific theories. Bridging this gap has been a problem in all philosophical approaches, and the so-called structuralist view of theories in one that was established in the 20 century. In this paper we present a “fuzzy extension” of this view on scientific research. For this scientific work in progress we show that the “fuzzy structuralist approach” can be fruitful to interpret quantum mechanics and evolu-

Reflections on a Fuzzy Logic of Scientific Discovery and Fuzzy Structures of Scientific Revolutions
Popper’s Logic of Scientific Discovery and Kuhn’s Structures of Scientific Revolutions are enormous important concepts on theories and their dynamic in 20 th century history and philosophy of science. How-ever, the works of the two have been criticized in the last half century and new views on theory nets and theory evolution appeared. In the last decades also new scientific methods and tools s...
متن کاملPOWERSET OPERATORS OF EXTENSIONAL FUZZY SETS
Powerset structures of extensional fuzzy sets in sets with similarity relations are investigated. It is proved that extensional fuzzy sets have powerset structures which are powerset theories in the category of sets with similarity relations, and some of these powerset theories are defined also by algebraic theories (monads). Between Zadeh's fuzzy powerset theory and the classical powerset theo...
متن کاملPOWERSET OPERATOR FOUNDATIONS FOR CATALG FUZZY SET THEORIES
The paper sets forth in detail categorically-algebraic or catalg foundations for the operations of taking the image and preimage of (fuzzy) sets called forward and backward powerset operators. Motivated by an open question of S. E. Rodabaugh, we construct a monad on the category of sets, the algebras of which generate the fixed-basis forward powerset operator of L. A. Zadeh. On the next step, w...
متن کاملe-Learning Theories with Emphasis on Independence Theory
Introduction: The basis of distance learning rests on the independence of the learner. The independent learning-teaching process is an educational system in which each learner is independent and separated from their teacher by time and place. Hence the present study seeks to examine E-learning Theories in general, but focuses on Independence Theory. Methods: The present study was conducte...
متن کاملRough Mereology as a Link Between Rough and Fuzzy Set Theories. A Survey
In this paper, we discuss rough inclusions defined in Rough Mereology – a paradigm for approximate reasoning introduced by Polkowski and Skowron – as a basis for common models for rough as well as fuzzy set theories. We justify the point of view that tolerance (or, similarity) is the motif common to both theories. To this end, we demonstrate in Sect. 6 that rough inclusions (which represent a h...
