Linguistic variables determination using fuzzy clustering
نویسندگان
چکیده
The fuzzy sets defining the linguistic variable values can be seen as a fuzzy partition of the linguistic variable. The membership functions obtained using fuzzy clustering algorithms are defined with respect to the group prototypes, and they cannot be used to define the linguistic variable values. We introduce several criteria to pass from the clustering membership functions to the linguistic variable value membership functions. The data have been taken from the financial sector.

A new method for fuzzification of nested dummy variables by fuzzy clustering membership functions and its application in financial economy
In this study, the aim is to propose a new method for fuzzification of nested dummy variables. The fuzzification idea of dummy variables has been acquired from non-linear part of regime switching models in econometrics. In these models, the concept of transfer functions is like the notion of fuzzy membership functions, but no principle or linguistic sentence have been used for inputs. Consequen...
متن کاملFuzzy Approaches to Context Variables in Fuzzy Geographically Weighted Clustering
Fuzzy Geographically Weighted Clustering (FGWC) is considered as a suitable tool for the analysis of geo-demographic data that assists the provision and planning of products and services to local people. Context variables were attached to FGWC in order to accelerate the computing speed of the algorithm and to focus the results on the domain of interests. Nonetheless, the determination of exact,...
متن کاملAn Efficient Approach for Clustering Web Access Patterns from Web Logs
The interests of web users can be revealed by their visited web pages and time duration on these web pages during their surfing. Time duration on a web page is characterized as a fuzzy linguistic variable because linguistic variable makes users easily understand the expression of time duration and can disregard subtle difference between two time durations. Each web access pattern from web logs ...
متن کاملFuzzy Clustering Data Given in the Ordinal Scale
— A fuzzy clustering algorithm for multidimensional data is proposed in this article. The data is described by vectors whose components are linguistic variables defined in an ordinal scale. The obtained results confirm the efficiency of the proposed approach.

Here are many situations in real applications of decision making where we deal with uncertain conditions. Due to the different sources of uncertainty, since its original definition of fuzzy sets in 1965 cite{zadeh1965}, different generalizations and extensions of fuzzy sets have been introduced: Type-2 fuzzy sets cite{6,13}, Intuitionistic fuzzy sets cite{1}, fuzzy multi-sets cite{37} and et...
