چکیده

This paper is an investigation of the automorphisms of the algebra of truth values of type-2 fuzzy sets. This algebra contains isomorphic copies of the truth value algebras of type-1 and of interval-valued fuzzy sets. It is shown that these subalgebras are characteristic; that is, are carried onto themselves by automorphisms of the containing algebra of truth values of fuzzy sets. Some other relevant subalgebras are proved characteristic, including the subalgebra of convex normal functions. The principal tool in this study is the determination of various irreducible elements.

Automorphisms of the Algebra of Fuzzy Truth Values II

One special subalgebra of the algebra of fuzzy truth values is the set of those elements that take only 0 and 1 as values. This subalgebra is in one-to-one correspondence with the subsets of the unit interval, but the operations do not correspond to ordinary union and intersection. The automorphisms of this subalgebra are studied here, resulting in showing that the subobjects corresponding to n...

EQ-logics with delta connective

In this paper we continue development of formal theory of a special class offuzzy logics, called EQ-logics. Unlike fuzzy logics being extensions of theMTL-logic in which the basic connective is implication, the basic connective inEQ-logics is equivalence. Therefore, a new algebra of truth values calledEQ-algebra was developed. This is a lower semilattice with top element endowed with two binary...

Interval Valued QL-Implications

The aim of this work is to analyze the interval canonical representation for fuzzy QL-implications and automorphisms. Intervals have been used to model the uncertainty of a specialist’s information related to truth values in the fuzzy propositional calculus: the basic systems are based on interval fuzzy connectives. Thus, using subsets of the real unit interval as the standard sets of truth deg...

EQ-algebras: primary concepts and properties

In this paper, we introduce a special algebra called EQ-algebra which has three binary operations (meet, product, fuzzy equality) and a top element. The fuzzy equality is reflexive, symmetric and transitive with respect to the product. EQ-algebra is a natural algebra proposed as an algebra of truth values on the basis of which the fuzzy type theory (a higher-order fuzzy logic) should be develop...

The Algebra of Truth Values of Type-2 Fuzzy Sets: A Survey

Type-2 fuzzy sets have come to play an increasingly important role in both applications and in the general theory of fuzzy sets. The basis of type-2 fuzzy sets is a certain algebra of truth values, as set forth by Zadeh. This paper is a survey of results about this algebra, along with some new material.
